A Conversation for Apathy Radius

Other factors affecting the Apathy Radius

Empirical studies (conducted at many institutions of higher education across the land) have shown that the Apathy Radius is affected by the following factors:

* Imminent parental visit - apathy radius significantly increases to encompass entire dwelling (and occasionally nearest bin-bag retail outlet)

* Marijuana consumption - AR decreases, although an increased likelihood of apathy tunnelling between the sofa and the nearest 24-hour garage has been observed.

Also, it has been shown that a TV remote control is encompassed by an equiapathetic surface, unless the remote in question is not easily visible (ie under sofa), in which case watching ITV2 all afternoon can seem a desirable outcome.

There are rumours of apathy feedback mechanisms involving daytime televison. However, I can't be bothered to find the reference.
