I thought technology was supposed to make our lives easier...

So, my nine year-old TV (you've served me well, old friend) went out with a bang - or a really weird screechy sound and a cloud of smoke - and I've been spending the past who-knows-how-long looking up info about LEDs, and LCDs, and motion rates, and outputs, and different brands, and different shops, and different BLARGHSSFFFSES...

I'm feeling so nostalgic for the days when buying a new product didn't require researching the hell out of it first.


ETA I'm also feeling an overwhelming urge to tell some kids to get off my lawn.

Huh. Weird.
