Old Timers...Remember "Rules of my Home Theater"?

Way back in the early days of DVDTalk, some put together a document titled "Rules of my Home Theater".

It included some rules like....

"If there is even an option, we always choose widescreen (insert a witty comment)"

"Absolutely no talking during the movie (insert witty comment)"

"If your cell phone rings, I will break it."


I am probably way off but you get the idea. I used to have a copy saved on my computer but am now at a loss for where it may be.

I searched the forum and the archives and couldn't find anything.

If nothing else I would like to see how well those rules held up over time.

If anyone has a copy or can find them on DVDTalk, I would appreciate it. And I am sure the newbs should be introduced to them as well.

You mean like "Welcome to my home theater, notice there's no 'P' in it... please keep it that way." Oh wait, that doesn't work... nevermind.

sort of, I guess.

I am surprised that no one remembers this yet. It was originally something on HTF but made its way over here.

It was a very funny, and very true (don't ask me why there are black bars!) list of rules.

I had originally printed them out and posted them on my wall, but one move and about 6 years later, I have no clue where they are.

I searched everywhere, including here, for them. Surprised no one knows either what I am even talking about or where to find them.
