I love new technology. My iPod Touch is the greatest but i also love the old stuff. Dad's records are the best and i way prefer the Nintendo 64 to the Wii but i really don't like it when people call new stuff by the old names. Today some lady in Kmart asked me whether i had any "videos" that sent of the alarm. I said yes but in my head i was thinking no i don't have any videos i only have a DVD.i dunno, i dont let it ruin my day or anything its just one of those annoying things like when you say "how are you" and someone reply's "hi", you know what i mean?(i did that today at a cash register and felt like a massive stooge!)

Hey Bee. I use the terms DVD and video interchangeably, because what you're watching is a video format. If someone called it a tape or VHS to me that would be a totally different thing.
ReplyDeleteI also call CDs albums. This is where Sandy (my wife) and I kinda disagree. A group puts out an album, the CD is just the format. But again, if someone called it a record that would be entirely different.
That's "the way the world looks" to me. In this case anyway. :)
