"You know how sad your life is when you know the release date of DVDs"

This quote by Heston Blumenthal is an amusing method of mentioning how mundane and uneventful life can be. It suggests that when one is so bored and unoccupied that they understand the release date of DVDs, their life has ended up being rather unfortunate. It is a pointer to maximize life and to find happiness in the little things. It is a reminder to take time to value the appeal of life and to find something to eagerly anticipate. It is a tip to take time to do something significant and to take advantage of the time we have. Life is too brief to be spent waiting on the release date of DVDs.
