I am not down with Netflix

Because everyone I talk to about movies these days, whenever I ask them if they've seen X really cool movie or Y really cool show, says, 'Oh, yeah, I want to see that! It's on my Netflix queue!'

So, basiclly, when you get Netflix, you're paying a monthly fee for the privilege of making a list of movies you want to see and registering that list online.

And, some time or other, you might get to see some of the movies.

Uh...

That's lame.

like so many other things in life, Netflix only gives you what you put in -- that is, you gotta actually *watch* the movies.

This is why I prefer to have Pinchloaf download the movies. Then, if we don't watch them, it's only because we're too lazy to take them out of the Giant Book of Burned DVDs that sits next to the TV, and not because it's somewhere in someone else's possession.

Wow, that was a good story, eh?

Well, I can't sell my movie-watchin' ways to anyone: walk to Blockbuster, wander listlessly around, wonder why they never have what I want, get something I don't want, refuse a Netflix-esque Blockbuster membership from desperate employees, lather rinse repeat.
