Stupid brain

[donutsweeper]

Yes, it is very important to spend two hours researching the difference between a geological survey and a geographic survey so I can use the right term when Jack dismisses the data presented to him via the report in a brief sentence. 

And no, I'm not wasting time on the minutia because it puts off figuring out the specifics behind the evil alien, or how Jack is going to solve things and what's going to happen next- that's just a bonus.

Anyone have a brain that is functioning?  Mine appears to be stuck on spin cycle.

probably for the best. disturbing on MANY levels

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Yes.

I'm watching TW DVD extras for "Captain Jack Harkness". Yay!

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I haven't had time to watch my TW DVDs yet. stupid bigbang taking up all my free time!

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

They're fun. I could do without the menu music, however.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

the menus for all the DW's is annoying, doesn't surprise me TW's is too.

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I could do without hearing the TW theme-song for awhile.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

why do they make the loading of dvds and the menus so annoying?

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I don't know. To make you click on the content faster?

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

lol- you maybe onto something there

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

LMAO...GDL drools in "End Of Days" and John makes sure to point this out in the commentary.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

seriously? I can't wait to listen to the commentary

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Yep. John said Gareth begged him not to point that out, the bastard. I can't wait to watch the rest of the commentary.

*snort* as much as I adore the man I bet JB can be a real bear to work with sometimes!

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Indeed. He's now fanboying over Naoko in the hazmat suit.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

he's such a cute fanboy

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

*snort* He just called Billis "the evil gay".

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

if the shoe fits....

I wonder if they plan on bringing Billis back in S2 or S3, he was a great bad guy

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I don't know about in the show, but he's mentioned in the synopsis of one of the new books.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I've been less than thrilled with the books. :(

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Same here, but they kept me occupied for at least part of Christmas break.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I find fanfic more interesting, for the most part.

anyway- it's past midnight here, and I have work tomorrow *oh joy* so I better go

night!

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Night!

Oh man, annoying DVD menus. When I watch on my computer I load DVDs sans menus because I got sick of them...especially the ones with animation you can't skip that plays every time.

And hey, when I play them with no menu at all there's the fun adventure of "Which title has the content? Who put the actual episode THERE?" :p.

I think my brain's stuck on spin cycle too. That or it's wandered off again!

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

that's smart- playing it without the menus. I'll have to think about figuring out how to do that!

[pointytilly.livejournal.com]

In VLC Media Player, it's File - Open Disc, then select plain "DVD" instead of "DVD (with menus)". It'll play straight up from the start, and to get to other bits you can muck about with the titles/chapters in the video menu, treasure hunt style. Fun :D.

(Disclaimer: I am a bit peculiar, so my idea of fun might be a bit off.)
