What are some things that people who are watching television do during commercials? Let’s compile a numbered list, I’ll start:

 

1. Channel-surf
2. Raid the refrigerator, pig out 
3. Discuss the last scene(s) they’ve seen or speculate about the upcoming scene(s) that they will see

      Not really. Just look to the description field for a clue.

      Perhaps a good point, so I edited the question accordingly, even though a look at the description field gives a clue.

    You did not say so. You said a numbered list.

      Er, um, I most certainly did say. The word “Let’s” means all of us, the words “a list” mean one list complied collectively, not a whole bunch of separate lists.  I already stated that the next time I post a similar type question, I will clarify those parameters.

    Long time ago when dusk began to fall in the evenings, before we had electricity, one of us would get up and light the kerosene lamps during a commercial br eak We always took turns.

    If you had no electricity, how did you see TV commercials, or even have TV, eh?

    Oh, just like they did in Shakespearean time.  Between acts, as the players were getting ready for the next act, ye olde horse trader stepped up... 

    "Art thee not restful of beating thy fusty dead horse? Then cometh on down to Honest Henry's Horse Emporium. We carryeth all the latest selection of new and used horses this side of the avon.
    On the spot financing is available to qualify buyers. So, cometh on down to Honest Henry's Horse Emporium the present day... and bid those folk Honest Henry hath sent thee."

    How could anyone tell a new horse from a used one? It's not as if new ones had price stickers on them.

    Are you implying that Honest Henry isn't all that "honest"?

    Would you trust a used car or used horse dealer?
