I also find the constant bee-boop really annoying. But maybe TiVo users find it really endearing.
My food is problematic.

Can you not do that with TiVo? What the hell, TiVo.
Not that I could ever figure out.
When I moved and switched to TiVo was when I realize just how ADD my TV watching had become.

I'm on a long call, and the caller, in South Carolina, wanted to start chatting about how right Glenn Beck is. Fortunately, he asked if I ever watched Beck, and he picked up the very cool tone of voice when I just "No."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I annoy myself enough by surfing the TV listings while I'm watching a show. I can't imagine surfing my saved programs. I'd never pay any attention to anything. But it's a feature I'd never considered.
I've never used any non-TiVo DVR software other than what shipped with my old VAIO, but I'm still irrationally attached to TiVo.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Comcast were the ones who said when they installed the DVR for me "Oh, you've had Tivo? You'll like this so much better."
With a straight face and everything? Wow.

The day before thanksgiving, while vacuming, K put her elbow through a window pane in our back door. That's been replaced and we have plexiglass that has been put up on both sides of the window. I'm feeling a bit better about the whole thing.
bon bon congrats on the tix! Can you get us tix for Ellen now?

This can be turned off pretty easily.

Extremely, from what I've heard.

I'm glad the window was fixed and plexiglass up. Hard way to get around to doing it, but now no more worry.
Cleaned the rug in the front room. It's got some random darker and lighter spots (it's a jute-ish thing) from where cats have barfed before, hopefully this will even it out. Wet fiber makes Loki nutso-er than usual...
