TV Third Person Dispay

 TV that reminds you that you're on the couch.

Imagine a small camera attachment for your TV that periodically takes a snapshot of you on your couch and shows it on the screen. The image of your sloth would flash very quickly on top of your regular programming without disturbing the audio. Usually it would flash the image just long enough for you to think you noticed, but once in a while it might show the image for a second or two. This [subliminal] constant reminder might help you get on your computer instead, or just return your Third Person Display Unit.

       Or I could put a mirror near the TV so I would constantly see myself. Either way, I'm not sure I would purchase something that constantly reminded me of my sloth...because then I would have to acknowledge that I officially completed the '7 deadly sins' list.
