Then they, and anybody else thinks you’re a selfish dick for not lending games out to anyone anymore.

It’s clearly a CD-R*; just burn another copy…

* I can tell from the color and burning quite a few CD-Rs in my time…

You’re clearly missing the joke.

*I can tell because you almost said aCHuAlLy and tried to tell people something detailed but off topic.

This is why I refused my mom lending out my dvd. She get mad, forgetting she taught me not loan out your stuff. She had huge VHS collection and now and then someone would borrow one and never return it.

But yes don’t loan out your games either.

I’m hesitant to even loan books out to people, I really don’t want dog ears or page 46-47 stuck together with ranch dressing or ranch dressing.

I’m a 40-something year old man now but your comment gave me flashbacks to my childhood stuff getting destroyed by the kids of my mother’s friends, who she would just let “borrow” my shit.

That’s when you let your 14 year old friends “borrow” mum’s panties.

Not so nice when the panty is on the other ass, is it?

I still don’t know who ended up with my Game Boy and all my games. And I’m still salty, half an eternity later.

I am still pissed at the person who "borrow " my DS and all my games and then gotten them "stolen ". I had borh Zelda games and rockband. Long with 20 other games. Dating a woman and she did that.

Why never loan out my shit period.

Damn this pic made me think of the struggle and how we wished for there to be a good format without this problem.

Then came bluray, famous for being scratch proof, and then we all decided optical disks aren’t as easy as little thumb drives.

It’s just not as satisfying as burning something new and then labeling it.

I just couldn’t watch The Hobbit on linux, i guess because the new keys used aren’t leaked yet (Video too new) or my drive (running a whole fuking VM) is too new, who knows?

Now imagine what they would’ve done with thumb drives? Just a remember; SSD are still running a blackbox firmware emulating a HDD.

It felt better knowing you can be without the internet, now we all stay connected for better or for worse.
