I remembered my bagel today

 

[binary visions]

I just ate my bagel. From the aforementioned bagel place. Poppy seed.

 

[moff_quigley]

I had another ET bagel with cream cheese and bacon this morning. Teh awesome.

I bought an LG TV because it touted how great it was at upscaling standard definition TV with their XD chipset.

I brought it home and it made every show look like an oversaturated painting. Absolutely unwatchable. I have a Samsung now that I'm very happy with.

Of course, none of that is helpful to you either I just wanted to talk about myself.

did you calibrate it with something like Digital Video Essentials? if not then complaining about the presets is rather pointless.

 

[binary visions]

The oversaturation was less a problem than the odd effect that the upscaling had. It looked as if someone had, to enlarge each pixel, smushed a paintbrush against the screen. Weird blobby effect, made it look like you were watching a moving painting.

I'm certainly savvy enough to know the presets on TVs aren't usually good, but I never could get the color quite right on it. That wasn't the problem, though. The bizarre upscaling was the deal breaker.

on a serious note, can we get a sticky in the C&T forum for home theater help? id be happy to answer anyone's question there

Yeah good idea but no recommending that Victor crap, it's like the Ford Edsel of the electronics world. Their infamous exploding cameras maim thousands of children every year in Japan. It's very serious. Boom they go and now little kiddies have no fingers. I hope you're happy Rice. If I used smilies I'd be using the one where the head shakes in disgust. Kidmaimer.

I haven't had a bagel in days. Is there a good bagel shop in Leominster?

 

[binary visions]

I had no bagel this morning.

This makes me a sad monkey.

 

[MMike]

I have to pee

I really want to be part of this thread but have nothing to say, does that matter?

Yes, it is always safe to just share your feeling on the subject of MMike.

Please don't get off topic. We're talking about my bagel shortage.

I'm pretty ambivalent when it comes to Mmike - I think the pending fate of two teenage daughters dating future lovebunnies is the best kind of karma.

No one said you had to eat it all at once...

My 42" Vagina has been great so far.

That's just wrong.

 

[SkaredShtles]

That's just wrong.

Westy is the hotdog in the hallway?

 

[binary visions]

I still have no bagels

 

[DRB]

I still have no bagels

I have your bagels.

 

[Westy]

I have your bagels.

Do you have a job yet, or are you stealing bagels to survive?

Bagels are simply drawn to me.

They do roll well, must be spending a lot of time in a ditch.

 

[binary visions]

I have your bagels.

I would ask for them back, but there's no telling what you've done to them.

I was planning a trip to Charlotte a couple months ago with an evening to kill, but I figured you weren't checking your PMs anymore so it was fruitless to see if you were around for a beer.

And then I realized that I probably didn't want to fight off the badgers and wolverines to see you anyway.

Nothing they don't want done to them.

Badgers and wolverines will do what they will. Sorta like bagels.

just check if the tiny hole in the center is a tiny bit larger.

BV's bagels are not pointless. Actually bagels are very very round and rather pointless, my bad.

And to think, they now make hot air corn poppers and deep fryers.
