Fun site of the day: You Fell Asleep Watching a DVD

If you’re anything like me, you often times put on a DVD too late at night, maybe even with the lights off, and were sound asleep 20 minutes later. Then a few hours later, or maybe even the next morning, you wake up on the couch or passed out on top of your bed and the once cute but now totally irritating DVD menu is still looping the same images and song in 30 second intervals. It’s bugging you so much, but you can hardly muster the strength in your sleepy state to turn off the darn TV.

Apparently the phenomenon is more universal than I’d ever imagined, as the site You Fell Asleep Watching a DVD proves. After 5 tries, did you really think you’d finally get through “Pride and Prejudice”? No way.

Check out this funny site, and tell us what horribly annoying DVD menus you’ve passed out to. Mine would have to be any season of “Sex and the City” or the James Bond movie “Diamonds are Forever” I was watching at my boyfriends house at 2 a.m. last weekend. I cringe just thinking about the 007 theme. [You Fell Asleep Watching a DVD]

    There aren't any in particular I don't like, but I hate the ones that tell me basically the entire plot of the movie before I have the chance to his Play. It gives away surprises.

    The most annoying DVD loop I've ever heard came from Stepford Wives. Oh my, was that ever annoying..just the same music over and over! Also, any Austin Powers movie loop...oye.

    The annoying one I fell asleep to was the Underworld Sequel. I didn't even make it past the beggining credits. I started it at 2 and woke at 6 with the images of the main chick kickin ass and the play button flashing.

    On a funny note: If you're ever having trouble sleeping and have ever had to take defensive driving for a speeding ticket, and you took the online course that comes with the dvd, pop that dvd in..you'll be out in 10 minutes, LOL.
