I'm trying to remember the title of a short story I've read before.
It's a short story about human society being mentally and physically suppressed in order to make everyone equal. It also involved an old couple watching TV.

Help would be appreciated.
Pic unrelated, I don't come here often.

Yes. Unfortunately we have hundreds of pizzacone franchises, that are spreading faster that subway did.
