DVDs and the like

[xp_wallflower]

Soooo, what's the policy on the raiding of the DVD library in the large TV room downstairs? I've been completely salivating over the selection but I'm not sure if I should be asking people before going on an orgy of TV watching.

And, having said that, anyone who wants to join me for this marathon, is more then welcome.

Since half the people around here don't need to sleep or at least like to pretend they don't need to, TV orgies are fairly commonplace. The DVDs are all fair game, although if the little ones are still up, watch the ratings.

Also, hi. I'm Bobby. I'm...usually not this quiet. But since I'm here, let me offer you a belated welcome. I'm owned by one of the redheads and I make damn fine ice cream, if you're ever interested.

Take him up on the ice cream, Laurie. He's not kidding about it being damn fine.

[x-coldhands.livejournal.com]

...So's my redhead.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

A ghra, that's a matter of opinion. Your ice cream is objectively damn fine.

*grins* Am I allowed to say you two are seriously adorable, or will that get me smacked?

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

You get a pass because you're new. It's understandable that you'll think we're adorable since you don't know us.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Terry's right - wait until you get to know them. The adorable wears off and it's more like watching an avalanche in motion.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

Very pretty but a disaster about to happen?

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

More like "If it appears to be headed downhill, run for cover and don't get in the way".

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

Ouch. Aye, that's accurate.

Well, given that empirical evidence seems to show a correlation between relationship difficulties and some rather spirited outbursts, and also given the sheer capacity for mass destruction some of you women around here have, I'm amazed that the menfolk don't do more business in the area of chocolates and flowers.

Just for everyone's safety, you know.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about. The girls around here are all delicate, demure little angels who would never raise their voice or...

okay, I can't physically finishing typing that. Too much laughter.

mmm, chocolate

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

And flowers. I'm given to understand they're part of efficient upkeep for periodic relationship maintenance.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

I don't remember the last time I got flowers....

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Bobby doesn't buy you flowers? Weird.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

He...borrowed some one time, I think.

I must not be remembering right.

*grins* I believe I shall. Want to come down and watch DVDs with me? Tonight, there shall be computer animated cartoons. Because I haven't seen 'The Incredibles' yet and now that I know it's there, it's calling to me to watch it.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

I go where the ice cream goes.

Hi, Bobby

[x-wallflower-.livejournal.com]

I never could say no to good ice cream. How are you at Double Fudge and chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream?

I was thinking of putting on 'The Incredibles' followed by 'Chicken Little'. So, rating is definitely kid safe. I'm in the mood for a computer animated movie run.

Re: Hi, Bobby

[x-coldhands.livejournal.com]

All in one, or two separate flavors? I haven't met an ice cream yet that I can't make, and trust me, Kyle's put that to the test more than once.

Re: Hi, Bobby

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Peanut butter-raisin-oatmeal.

Re: Hi, Bobby

[x-roulette.livejournal.com]

I'd hit that.

Re: Hi, Bobby

[x-wallflower-.livejournal.com]

All in one. *grins* There can never been too many flavours in the one ice cream. (Although, possibly peanut and jelly ice cream would just be plain weird.)

[x-kitten.livejournal.com]

Yup, like Bobby said, the DVDs are up for grabs - you can even take them to watch on your computer or the suite TV if you want, so long as they make it back to the lounge in good time, and the TV's on a first come first serve basis, for the most part.

What are you going to be watching?

[x-wallflower-.livejournal.com]

'The Incredibles' to start with, and then 'Chicken Little'. Haven't seen 'The Incredibles' but watching 'Chicken Little' again because there can never be enough 'cute fuzzy alien with tiny feet' in my life.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Incredibles is way fun. Who doesn't love wacky superpowered antics?

[x-cable.livejournal.com]

Just to be absolutely clear, my daughter will not be anywhere near any TV playing the Incredibles. Ever.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Yes, we already heard the tale of the Ray-Ray Affray.

[x-cable.livejournal.com]

Don't mock me. Have you seen her latest trick? She crawls on the ceiling as if she were crawling on the floor. It's the most disturbing thing ever. Like something out of a horror movie.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

That's awesome. Want me to mount some sensors on the ceiling in her nursery, then? If she's exerting enough force to provide enough buoyancy to counteract gravity and still get forward momentum, she's likely to get into more trouble.

[x-cable.livejournal.com]

Yes, please. Also, can you whip up some kind of alarm for the doors out the boathouse? She's figured out how to open doors, and it's a little more serious when she can open a couple and get outside.
