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.
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.
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.
They were great for light scratches and buffing out blemishes, it came with this solution spray and the wheel was basically just a buffer pad that wiped center out while rotating the disc. But anything beyond a light scratch was pretty much DOA.

I’m just curious. I sold warheads in elementary school. For a quarter a piece at first then down to nickels and dimes as people ran out of quarters. I think I just wanted to see how much I could sell by making different deals. As an adult I hate haggling though.
That’s a good profit margin. By the time I was trying to get extra weed money, I was “extracting shareholder value” when I was working at Wendy’s. There was more opportunity working the drive thru.
My friends actually took good care of borrowed CDs. My older brother, on the other hand… One time I handed him down a PSOne (back in 2006 i think, he was never big in videogames, but he played once in a while) - the dense fucker kept a thesaurus on top because he couldn’t figure how to close the lid (there was a small, bumpy part next to the open button, you had to press the lid there so it’d click close). That almost fucked the actual clicky thing
