... because I threw away all my VHS tapes. I kept them for nostalgic reasons (I guess) and thought I would go back and look at the stuff I once thought was worth recording ... but deep down I knew this wasn't really going to happen. And now my mum threw out her VHS player and mine has been gone for a couple of years already, so watching old recordings wouldn't be easy anyway.

On other news:

- we're getting a new internet provider, because Marco thinks we could do with more speed for less money. I'm all for less money, but I never really notice the speed differences. Anyway, if I should drop off the internet it's because (yet another) internet provider fucked up.

- I just checked out the new first reads that are listed on goodreads and the first listing (available for my country of residence) says "Having just been turned by her gorgeous vampire boyfriend, eighteen-year-old ..." ... people are still writing that stuff? AND people are still READING that stuff??!! I'm not judging the people who applied for this book, btw. it's a free book after all and I have applied for some questionable stuff over time too. If I don't like it, well, I lost nothing and the public bookshelves I frequent always welcome donations.

- Unpopular Oscars opinion: I'm tired of the German media and their Clooney obsession. I don't find him very interesting or outstanding in movies, never did. Plus, I want Jean Dujardin and Gary Oldman to win. Yes, both of them.

- @ keli  - that dragon is so cute! Thanks a lot! :D

- can someone point out some Spock vs. Sherlock fic please? I KNOW it's out there somewhere ... or will be soon, after that first Star Trek picture ...
