Sometimes, you just need a break. Just like there is physical candy when we crave something sweet and insubstantial, at times there is a need for something fluffy for the mind. Something like mental_floss (love that magazine) or a potboiler novel or dumb television show. A little something that can occupy (in the boradest sense) your mind without actually requiring any energy. Mental entertainment.
Like food candy, too much is probably not a good thing. But also like food candy, a little bit now and then is sometimes just what hits the spot.
