I'd much rather create stuff than watch telly
Well it's your time to waste, after all. But Ian's completely right - if you honestly think that the above statement makes you somehow 'better' than people who would rather enjoy a decent box set than fanny about 'creating' something so pointless, worthless and of such little use to anybody that it literally has no value then your priorities are seriously fucked up, and all you've done is demonstrate exactly why you've got so much free time on your hands.
If you want to indulge in this ridiculous snobbery, at least aim to create something that somebody somewhere might need and/or want. Or, you could make a tent in the living room and eat Dairylea. Is that what you want? Because that's what's going to happen.
