If you have the new Soprano's tapes...return them, grrr!

Thanks crispee.

I always wanted to meet the one person who still uses a VCR instead of a DVD player.

 

Make that two people

I never even watched a DVD until Saturday night until I watched a couple episodes of the Simpsons first season on my friend's PS2...I must say, I'm hooked...You haven't seen ANYTHING until you've seen a Simpson's episode in French...

Yeah, I know I'm behind the times...Anybody want to come over my apartment later and play some Snakebyte on my Apple IIE? Maybe listen to some records later on...

 

What are these "tapes" you speak of? The only kind of video format in existence (that I know of) are the flat round discs that come in flat, rectangular cases. Is this "tape" thingy a new format? Will it replace my 60+ DVD collection?

 

Hey crispee, maybe those tapes are in the <a href="http://www.lpl.arizona.edu/~vance/betaphile.html">Betamax</a> section of the video store!

 

Can one of you guys fill me in on the Beta vs. VHS debate...

I heard that Beta is better quality than VHS however since Beta technology for whatever reason was not available to many people, the cheaper VHS took over the market and Beta hasn't been heard from since.

 

While you're at Cactus, crispee, you should check out the latest Earth, Wind, and Fire 8-track. I hear it's excellent.

 

anyone know where i can get one of those color tvs iv'e been hearing about....

 

crispee:

Let me show you the light.

p*rn IS on DVD.

Better yet, some have multiple angles, so you can change the angle of the camera if you don't want to see the guys ass in your face. But at the same time, if you do, then hey.

No more rewinding and fast forwarding. Plus if you can get an older apex, you can watch DVD's from different regions. Yes! That means all the Japanese bukakke films you can handle.

Wow. I know too much about p*rn.

 

p*rn on dvd....duhhhh
why do you think dvd's were invented...

 

What the hell is an apex? So I have to buy a specific DVD player to watch Japanese smut? What kind of crap is that? Isn't a DVD just a DVD? Certain ones don't work?? I CAN"T WATCH JAPANESE p*rn??!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!? WTF?????

 

Well if its an Urban Legend, you should be able to find it here:

Legend: A p*rn video retailer runs a clever scam by sending customers embarrassingly uncashable refund checks.



True Story - Australian Police have been unable to recommend a prosecution for the following scam:
A company takes out a newspaper advertisement claiming to be able to supply imported hard core pornographic videos. As their prices seem reasonable, people place orders and make payments via cheque.

After several weeks, the company writes back explaining that under the present law they are unable to supply the materials and do not wish to be prosecuted. So they return their customers' money in the form of a company cheque. However, due to the name of the company, few people ever bother to present these to their banks.

The name of the company is:
'The Anal Sex and Fetish Perversion Company'.




Variations:


Some versions of this legend place it in New Zealand rather than Australia.

Other versions omit references to locale and Americanize the spelling.
Origins: This legend appeared widely on the Internet in early 1998, apparently springing from Australian-based USENET newsgroups. A clever setup offers a punchline that plays on our sexual duplicity: we'll willingly buy and watch hard core p*rn videos, but we'll throw away our money rather than admit to anyone else -- even someone we don't necessarily know -- that we do.

For an American, at least, this one rates rather low in the plausibility category. Most of us deposit our checks by mail or through automated teller machines these days and rarely have any face-to-face contact with bank personnel. Even in the days before ATMs, the squeamish could always drop their "p*rn refund" checks in the night depository and avoid the embarrassment of presenting them to live tellers.

A similar legend placing the story in London, England, was in existence in the early 1990s. In that tale, 10,000 orders at £25 each were placed. Refund cheques red-stamped "Returned with thanks, Child sex ring" were issued, with the kicker being that only two of them were cashed.

Sightings: This legend is discussed as a potential money-making scheme by characters in the 1998 comedy thriller Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels.

 

HP,

Isn't that story from a movie, i think i was an Aussie movie but just can't remember the title.... anyone???

Smeg

Someone better think of the Movie title off the top of their head cause I'm not doing a web search for "Masochistic, Anal Sex Fetish, Inc."

 

This legend is discussed as a potential money-making scheme by characters in the 1998 comedy thriller Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels.

Great Movie, HP while your at the normal video store hire it plus get an Aussie movie, try the movie Two Hands it's a treat!!!

 

How pathetic is it that I didn't even have to think about what that game was like as I read your statement? Hell, even the sound effects from the "popping" and "buzzing" speaker came to me immediately.
