So this is my third day at home sick. Can I tell you on the BILLION channels we have there is practically nothing on television?!?! So today, I decided I
would pop in the Gilmore Girls. I like the Gilmore Girls. They make me happy, and after two, going on three days of not being happy at home, I decided I deserved some happy in my life. (Aside from Happy Gilmore, which might I add I watched 
yesterday). So here is my dilemma. I got Devin a Blu-Ray player for Christmas. It took/takes me forever to figure out how the thing works because we have a hundred remotes. Ok, so it’s only five, but that’s a lot. So there is the (from Left to Right) the Blu- Ray remote, the XBox 360 Remote, the TV remote, the Little remote (it changes the TV from TV mode to video game 
mode) and the Baby remote (it’s suppose to change the TV from TV mode to Blu-Ray mode). So I do know that I have to press 4 on the Baby remote to change the TV to Blu-Ray mode. Yeah, that didn’t work. So I texted Devin. He didn’t know either. I then pressed 5 on the Baby remote to 
make it go back to TV mode, that actually worked. So I spent money on this Blu-Ray thing for Devin because from what I understand it’s sooooo much better than plain ole DVD players. Yeah, well, call me old fashioned but I can get that DVD player to work! After 20 minutes of pressing a combination of numbers on the Baby remote I gave up and resorted to the XBox. Not the XBox HD player, the XBox. What’s my problem? (That was a rhetorical question and comments need not be made! Bradley and Dustin!) All of this rubbish because I wanted to watch Gilmore Girls instead of the crap that’s on cable. What happen to the days when you popped in a VHS and just hit play? That’s it, play. No Little remote, no Baby remote. No pressing 4 for video mode, just channel 3 or 4, and play. Now that I’ve got the DVD playing I’m going to enjoy some Matt Czuchry eye candy. :-)
THIS. This is why we don't have a blu-ray player...because I can barely work our new TV as it is.
ReplyDeleteJust because you didn't know how to drive a car at one point didn't mean that you shouldn't learn.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm hurt, Erin, that you think I would answer your rhetorical questions!
Any particular reason you had to call Dustin and I out on that rhetorical question deal?? hmm...
ReplyDeleteI will make no comments on your ability or lack there of in this instance. I believe you know what I would say anyway.
Have you ever thought about a universal remote? May I offer a suggestion.
Also, I just thought I might add that this commenting text box to not allow enough characters to effectively answer your rhetorical question. ;)
ReplyDeleteI just looked at the picture of Matt Whatshisface and he looks like a douche if I ever saw one!
ReplyDeleteHey Erin -- just discovered your blog! I've thought about getting a blu-ray as well.. this is potentially making me reconsider.
ReplyDeleteHope you're doing great!! =)
