A tribute to my DVR

Apr 01, 2010 20:48

Look, I can't disagree with anyone who lauds the invention of the DVR as a great way to save time. I mean, it lets me start your show 10-15 minutes late and still end on time by skipping over all those commercials for products I'll never buy.But the real value of the DVR lies in its ability to keep track of my shows in a way that I just don't seem ( Read more... )

Uhm. I just feel the need to say that that last line made me laugh and laugh and laugh.

Also, I may be stalking those who were at bitchinparty this past weekend, *shifty eyed*

At least you can use irony correctly, I am still afraid to use the word because I will likely make Richard Castle cry.

Seriously, like anything could ever make Captain Tightpants Richard Castle cry. :-)

Eight!

Brynn, Sal and I decided to make the assumption you got home safe, seeing as how you didn't tell us. (You'll just have to imagine the stern look I'm giving the computer right now. It is very impressive.) I...am never leaving Seattle. It appears Brynn exploded a volcano in Iceland to keep me here forever, or at least until next week some time. We should all fear her power.

I already feared Brynn's power. Volcanoes are just the beginning, Cat. I fear the end of days is upon us. But on the bright side, Seattle seemed like a nice enough place from which to see the apocalypse. So... bully for you.

Hello Eight.

I am in ur journal readin ur writins.

Also, DVR is bad. For DVR saves up bajillions of shows for you while you are away, causing one to say: "Oh my gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawd, Becky! I will have to give up sleeping and bathing in order to get through all of these!"

Also, you are soooo lucky to have gotten out of Seattle alive. Kurt Russel will play you in the movie.

Kurt Russel will play you in the movie.

That would be AWESOME. However, I must insist, in the interest of artistic purity, that John Carpenter provide the score.

And there's nothing wrong with having a bazillion shows on the DVR. I see it as an opportunity to have new shows all year 'round. For instance, the new 30 Rock season will start for me sometime in June. It's all a matter of pacing. (Although, having said that, I recently had to erase 7+ episodes of each of two shows -- and remove them from the recording queue -- because I finally admitted that I just wasn't going to get around to watching them before I ran out of space. So perhaps my comments are somewhat disingenuous.)
