So, the more things one knows, the older they are.

SURPRISE CUPCAKE!
Knowledge is one thing
Wisdom is another.

The original recordings must have sucked.

That and you've been listening to the radio for over an hour waiting for your current favorite song to come on so you can finally hit record.

But the stupid DJ talks over the intro with the station's call letters, ruining the beginning anyway. :(

...and the end

[ - ] MuricaPersonified 3 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 13:15:30 ago (+3/-0)

That was bad. What was worse were all the classic songs they played and never named the track or artists.

[ - ] Prairie 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 18:04:14 ago (+1/-0)

It's a computer game. They were probably saving their game.

[ - ] Inward 2 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 20:39:31 ago (+2/-0)

Skate or Die, but I don't think you could save your game on the cassette. It was likely overwritten with some jewish U2 or INXS.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 3 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 14:16:06 ago (+3/-0)

Apparently SKA by Michael sucked

[ - ] PostWallHelena 3 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 14:14:50 ago (+3/-0)

Other indicator:

If you can explain why you also need a pencil on hand.

[ - ] zongongo 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 15:49:34 ago (+1/-0)

Manual ff or rw

[ - ] PostWallHelena 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 15:55:23 ago (+1/-0)

Or if the player ate the tape. Had to be a pencil. Pen wouldn’t do.

[ - ] Prairie 2 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 18:04:49 ago (+2/-0)

The Bic pens of the time would work. Slightly larger, but the pen end was conical so it would grab enough.

Hey, the only reason I know why is because I've played Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders.

...Wait. Does having played that also mean I'm old?

[ - ] Peleg 2 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 11:32:04 ago (+2/-0)

What? What's that even for? I don't know nothing about it! Nothing I say, nothing. Never seen that, never done that, nope. ;)

[ - ] Wahaha 2 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 09:49:01 ago (+2/-0)

I can just pretend to not know that it was done to record over the cassette.

[ - ] Niggly_Puff 2 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 08:57:43 ago (+4/-2)

To prevent it from being recorded over

/old

[ - ] Inward 10 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 09:39:14 ago (+10/-0)

Wrong.

[ - ] Inward 6 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 09:39:40 ago (+6/-0)

But he's wrong. It's the opposite.

[ - ] Niggly_Puff 5 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 09:54:14 ago (+5/-0)

Oops you are right. It allows it to be recorded on. This is an official release, tapping it would allow you to record over it.

[ - ] kammmmak [op] 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 17:19:01 ago (+1/-0)

You're not old.

[ - ] bonghits4jeebus 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 16:26:48 ago (+1/-0)

Both squares cuz you could grab non high density disks for cheaper and cutting out one punch would make them h8ih density since the punch was the only difference.

[ - ] RMGoetbbels 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 18:19:39 ago (+1/-0)

You're a dick.

[ - ] Prairie 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 18:03:36 ago (+1/-0)

Or know that this is a game and not music.

[ - ] SteppingRazor 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 16:45:30 ago (+1/-0)

I had one of those Head Cleaner tapes. Worst band ever.

[ - ] zongongo 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 15:47:21 ago (+1/-0)

Good and old.

[ - ] winners_history 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 13:47:35 ago (+1/-0)

Bonus aging-points if you know what "C-64/128" means.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 2 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 15:58:42 ago (+2/-0)

Commodore 64 compatible for data I think .

[ - ] Inward 2 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 20:43:50 ago (+2/-0)

The cassette is Skate or Die, a video game. Believe it...


...or not!

[ - ] PostWallHelena 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 20:57:31 ago (+1/-0)

Ohhhh that makes more sense.

[ - ] winners_history 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 20:53:56 ago (+1/-0)

We have a winner!

I had a C-128 in 1987.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 20:58:09 ago (+1/-0)

We had a C 64 and a Vic 20 before that.

[ - ] con77 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 13:11:10 ago (+1/-0)

had to think about it

[ - ] jigganiggaboo 0 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 21:50:57 ago (+0/-0)

Sometimes you cant find an unused tape to make mixtape. May as well use a tape with a lame album on it to record over

[ - ] texasblood -1 points 1.9 yearsJun 26, 2023 13:56:14 ago (+0/-1)

Thats a shitty tape hack.
Pretty sure it wont eject
