When spell checkers are *not* your friend

[donutsweeper]

Dear Mr. Spellchecker,

Gibbs talking about being threatened by an ex-wife with cast iron is a smidge different than being threatened with castration.  The latter probably would have made him a bit more upset.  Quit trying to change it in my story.

especially for a family of 4. geez

I tend to hit matinees, anymore, because they're about three dollars cheaper.

When we go to the theater (which is almost never) we do matinees or the second run theaters- usually the movies there are almost about to come out on DVD, but at $2 a person, it's worth waiting

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Dang. I wish we had theaters like that here.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

there's only one or two, and they are in the boonies, but well worth the trip when it's $8 for the family vs $8 per person!

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I'll say.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

although not that I subscribe to netflix we almost never bother with the movie theater.

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Netflix is awesome.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

What I love is all the random and rare tv shows it has.

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Oh, definitely. I go through seasons so quick when I rent them from there.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

and it's better than getting the episodes "elsewhere" because there's the commentaries and deleted scenes and things

although you have to be careful. There were a few shows that I remembered fondly from when I was a kid and rewatched and was O.0 WHAT was I thinking? they sucked

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Definitely. That's probably the main reason I still by TV on DVD.

I tend to think it best not to revisit my childhood in TV form, as that does tend to happen. Case in point: MacGuyver. It definitely looked better as a kid. Although, I must say, going back and watching Quantum Leap, I wondered exactly why I didn't like the show more.

fond memories are best left shiny and brightened by the rose colored glasses of youth, right? I LOVED MacGyver. I bet I would think it silly if I watched it now

Although some shows hold up amazingly well. Which gives me hope for when I eventually want to revisit shows from this era

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I must admit, I really think Torchwood is going to look rather silly upon revisitation, but I still do have hope for some shows.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

if we could get some Jack dispantsia I wouldn't care how silly the show wound up looking

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

This is true.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

although I'll take naked hide and seek if I can't have dispantsia

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Hmm, yes...

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

someone *has* to write a fic listing the ways to cheat in naked hide and seek

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

.....damn you, plot bunnies!

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

Come on... you know you want to!

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I do. I really do.
