A day in the life of lonely sandwich…
Me: Ugh, what are you watching?
Lady: 30 Rock.
Me: I know, but…do you notice anything weird about it?
Her: No.
Me: You see that big, black border around the whole thing, and how it looks and sounds all cruddy?
Her: No. I don’t.
Me: Really? You don’t see how the picture is all shrunk down in the screen and everything’s a little chunky and blurry?
Her: No. I don’t care.
Me: Okay, watch this. [Goes through the guide up to the 400s where the HD is.] Okay, are you watching?
Her: [Not watching. Playing with the dog and laughing because he did something cute.]
Me: Okay, are you watching? [Swaps channels, engulfed in a glorious wave of fidelitous sound and image.]
Her:…
Me: You see that?
Her: No. I don’t care.
Me: …
Her: …
Me: I love you.
Her: [Laughs at the stupid dog.]
