Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What is the word above automobiles?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

"Agreed. Hey...jump up the wall clawing at nothing later?"
"You're on."
You're spying.

My mammals have stopped flipping out like mammals after I used the evil vacuum. Granted, took me a beer to get over it but the cats just needed a timeout.

If anyone's in the market for a multi-region DVD player, this thing is awesome. Circuit City has it marked down to $50.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That is certainly my DVD player of choice. The remote is one of the least intuitive ones I've seen, but the thing has played every format I've given it so far.

I'm totally missing the voodoo/cocaine clue. But I'm several IQ points short of a bushel today. Again.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Even Betamax??

Woooooow

Why on earth would I try and feed it Betamax? Betamax is torched on sight, from a distance, to avoid risk of spreading the infection.

Had a "The Counter" burger today. I had cranberries on mine, in deference to the season.

Yeah, the remote is clunky. But I'm gonna see if one of the others (sigh) can be programmed to work it.

And it lets you skip past the "Attention: Don't pirate this! Really, we're serious, don't!" messages! Huzzah.

I have the Harmony remote control--it's a step down from the Tivo Remote, but it's just one remote and ten million miles up from the DVP. It's also kinda cool to have TiVo play in the same place as OnDemand play in the same place as DVD play.
