5. Not if you're looking at tits

6. I can't stand
the previews and commericals that play before you can get to the menu screen. Is there anyway to override this?

8. on some you can press the menu button, but not all of them.
Or the chapter button as well.

9. I agree with you - it is one of the banes of my existence.
And the ones with the previews "built-in" - those piss me off.

And especially the ones with the goddamn long introductions, and that then also have ridiculously long animated menu changes after selecting something.

ARGH! I just want the fucking movie, and don't wanna spend 5 minutes just trying to get to it!!!

:argh:

11. Your DVD player is judging
your taste. It is mulling over whether to play your choice or not. My player must have been Jeeves in a previous life. It sniffs at my DVD collection, and even when it does decide to play a movie(after that interminable wait), an exasperated sigh can be heard coming from it.

12. Special relativity
The faster a DVD loads, the more there is for it to load. Infinitely fast loading results in an infinite amount of data to load.
