I've noticed that, for Dreamwidth's first (open beta) anniversary, people are planning meetups. And while some people would like to go to said meetups, they can't for some reason (location, money, time, accessibility, nerves, etc).

My proposed solution: a virtual meetup!

I've made a decision: I'm taking back Valentine's Day.

On Sunday I'm going to have a day of self-love: I'm going to be positive about myself and maybe even pamper myself a little, because I deserve it. So maybe I might have to spend the next few days convincing myself that I actually do deserve it, but I do, and so does everyone else!

So, I'm hoping to expand my DVD collection a little, and have some great suggestions of things to buy.

BUT I have no idea whether I'll even be able to enjoy some of these suggestions, because I simply do not know if English subtitles will be available on the DVD. I'm having to buy them on the internet, so I'm having to rely on the websites to provide that information - except that these aren't massively popular films, so often the information isn't provided.

Which is why I really need your help.

If you happen to own one of the following on DVD, can you please check whether it has the option to view English and/or other language subtitles during the film? If you could also say which region it's from, that would be really useful.

[Note: links go to the film's IMDB page, so you can check that we're talking about the same film.]




[Edit] Please feel free to pass this post on to other people who might be able to help - I could use all the help I can get with this.

[Edit #2] For the record, my DVD player is Region 2, but I know people who have multi-region players, so other regions can be an option if needed.

While my sister's here (which she will be any minute), if you really want to talk to me either call/text me (if you have my number) or direct message me on twitter (same username as here) - I'll still be checking my emails/comments when I can, but the DMs are texted right to my phone, so I'll be able to get them at any time.

I love my Dreamwidth layout.

That is all.



(My LiveJournal layout is pretty similar, but I like the Dreamwidth one more. With the amount of time I've spent messing around with the code to get it how it is, I'd better damn well like it.)

Dreamwidth readers - like half of DW, I'm testing out the new comment count functionality when crossposting. Make a random comment so I can see if it works! This includes any lurkers and passersby :)

Livejournal readers - there's a little number at the bottom of this post, right? That should tell you how many comments there are on the corresponding dreamwidth entry. I don't know why you'd want to know that, but it might come in useful :)


[Edit] IT WORKS! \o/

If you're not recieving comment notifications to your entries through your email properly, you might want to look at this:

http://getting-started.dreamwidth.org/42537.html?thread=272425#ljcmt272425

Don't be put off by it being a Dreamwidth link - the instructions work on LiveJournal too. I'm not sure how it works, only that it does work, because I've tried it and it does.

By which I mean that I've worked out how to do some cool things with it. My sleepless night hasn't been a total waste after all :)

I'm working (very slowly) on a moodtheme for my DW account. It probably looks really rubbish, but I think it's cute, so it's staying. Not that I've actually made half the moods yet, but there you go.

(If this works as it should, this'll be my 1st post on DW and my 751st on LJ. Ho-lee shit.)

So, Item Of News #1 would be that someonehas just given me 12 months paid time on DW *flails*

That is all for now.
