Today's work consisted of a featurette about Alfred Hitchcock and three Donald Duck episodes from the 1950s. Also, we got to eat cupcakes in honour of someone's birthday.

And one more from the "subtitling gaffes" file:

Should read: The whole spy genre is epitomized by Notorious.
Reads: The whole spy genre is epidermised by Notorious.

Quick, get that spy into some skin! He's bleeding all over the rug!

... Oh. Not what you meant. Right. *grin*

Did you explain that Donald Duck was related to the ancient Household G-d of Frustration?

1. That was Daffy Duck, not Donald.
2. It was the ancient Egyptian God of frustration, if I remember correctly.
3. No, because there was no one to inform who would be interested.

*grin*

Heh, tis why I said related. Though couldn't tell you about Egyptian or not. Don't have the dvds on hand. But it would have been a nice in-joke to have made nevertheless. C'mon, admit you didn't think it was a prime example of l'esprit d'escalier.
