So lately a family friend has been loaning me the Doctor Who DVDs. As a bonus he has a lot of the original Doctor Who's taped on VHS. He agreed to loan me these as well. I got the first tape today, so I had to dig out my old VCR.
Digging the VCR out: No problem (easy to get to box)
Digging out the cords: Easy to find (I have tons of cords)
Finding the VCR remote: Problem
Despite having been at my parents for some time, a good deal of my things are in boxes. I searched many piles of boxes, my room, my basement man cave, and still nothing. Finally I look on the shelf by everything (forgot I had a box there). Bingo.
But if it's not one thing it's another. I put in the tape, it ejects. I push it back in, press play, it ejects. I put it in, press rewind, it ejects. I put a different tape in. It works. I put in the Doctor Who tape, it ejects. Dammit!.
Not much of a rant, I know, but it really bummed me out. I could really use a sonic screwdriver.
