random thoughts. rants. general nonsense.

I don't know why white chocolate gets such a bad rap. Personally, I love the stuff.
 
Don't tell Duracell that lots of other people actually enjoy it or that it's actually quite popular,  you'll ruin it for him.

I'd just waste it posting on the internet.
 
So I've been watching Star Trek DS9 from a DVD box set.  The casing is the same dumb "EpikPak" as other CBS releases of this nature, but this one is particularly bad as one box houses an odd number of discs.  The solution was to stick an adhesive circle to the case and put a small plastic disc holder on it, except it falls off a lot.

Anyway, the last disc of season 6 has adhesive residue on the back and is largely unplayable.

Anyone know how best to clean this?
 
Baby wipes are really good as well for removing sticker residue.
 
Don't use toothpaste, it's grainy and can cause some serious microscopic abrasions on the disc that may or may not end with it being unplayable. Baby wipes or a lint free cloth with some windex are the way to go.

This stuff is amazing for removing sticker residue: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mykal-Sticky-Stuff-Remover-250ml/dp/B000TAT4GM

Does no damage to even the most delicate DVD packaging (plastic and cardboard) materials but hard to remove adhesive residue comes off like magic. However, I've never tried it on the actual DVD surface and I'm not sure what the equivalent US product would be. Goo Gone?
 
An eBay item I won has been sent from Illinois to Milwaukee (where I live) to the Distribution Center in San Antonio, Texas, according to the USPS tracking details. Somehow I don't feel that is the most efficient route.
 
Man, I finally watched Superman vs Batman.  What a bad movie.  What a stupidly, poorly thought out movie.   When I can, I think I will writing ranting review of this p.o.s. .
 
I still love BvS no matter what critics say. Hurumph.

Me, too. Unapologetic love despite it's flaws and all the hate it got from critics and "fans" alike. There's legitimate criticisms to be made, but it honestly felt excessive how much hate it got, especially once the extended version came out. Affleck was an incredible Batman. That warehouse fight was like watching TDKR meets Arkham, it was awesome.

I actually have not seen the ultimate edition yet despite owning it! I haven't seen the film in its entirety since theaters, now that I think of it. Only fan edits since then. I really should watch the Ultimate Edition, because I've heard it's far better.
 
I vehemently refuse to watch any DCEU film. Except Wonder Woman. I'm merely uninterested in that one.
