I carry dvds on long trips in the car and watch movies since I cannot read in the car, lol. I used to try to all the time when I was younger... it never went well.

I'm sure watching movies isn't going much better. I mean, how do you drive and watch a movie? What kind of a maniac are you?

I'm not the one driving, lol. I've been on long trips to the beach or out to visit relatives. Growing up I had 'long trips' to the hospital but back then when I got sick every ride 45 minutes was the longest ride ever! I even found that staring at road signs make me sick. Watching a screen does not unless it involves reading at all and even reading the cover of the DVD when I go to put it in also makes me sick... ugh.

That all depends on who I'm with at the time of whatever drive...
If its to the hospital its usually my mom and growing up it always was. On the recent trips I've been on I've been with my boyfriend and his family so his parents and him always took turns going to the beach or to Kansas except for the time we flew there.

So you just let them drive and ignore them to watch a movie? That's just wrong.

Lol, some of those trips were so incredibly long that each of us ended up using our laptops or sleeping at one point or another. Anyway, growing up it was pretty normal for me to carry my cd player with everywhere- literally I went nowhere without it. I used it in the car, when I did my paper route and always always when I took my growth hormone shots. Actually when I gave them to myself I had to use my cd player and I had also stare at the television in order to not scream. :/

I used to have this boom box, well they was called ghetto blasters back then, but it had a built in tv, it was only like 3 inches, and black and white, and only got like 2 channels, but I thought it was the coolerst thing in the world. Had a double cassette deck too so you could copy stuff, in high speed even, great fun listening to stuff in high speed, thats around the time I figured out that God Save The Queen is really America the Beautiful slowed down, Lousy Brits copying our national anthem!

America the Beautiful isn't our national anthem.

Right, right, Star Spangled Banner, I knewd that, I was just seeing if you did. But anyways, the SSB has a British version too, I cant remember the name of it or anything, it was from some "gentlemen's club" in London or something, they stole it from us damnit! Granted, the British version probably was written first, but we're Americans damnit, we dont care about silly things like facts, right?

That is a lie. More than 80 percent of Americans that drink alcohol will drink cheap nasty beer.

 Personally, if I had the throwaway cash to spend on a toy (as opposed to using it professionally) I might be into something like this - mainly because it's tough for people to see my photoshop work and photography when the biggest screen they have to view it on is only the size of their hand.
