laughingsquid: VHS Laptop Skins Are Childhood Overload This could’ve been camouflage in my bedroom growing up. Where’s the black Scotch EG though (Consumer Reports highest-rated non-premium VHS cassette)? I had many a Tom Baker Doctor Who episode taped on those, and a lot of Headbangers Ball too. I wonder how many other kids were reading Consumer Reports reviews of blank VHS cassettes when they were 12. That would make an interesting Meetup. Or not.

Pretty Hate Machine Turns 20 I dropped a hunka cash on a new “integrated” Sony stereo rack system right after high school, and then immediately blew out the speakers by “testing” them with this CD. I learned a couple things: ’Ringfinger’ has a lot of bass. Always buy separate components (and make sure those components don’t include Sony speakers).
