seasonal unhoarding at my parent's house: over 150 VHS tapes

Posted by Max Nov 25 '11, 20:06

Children of a Lesser God, Air Force One, Chapter Two, Top Gun, Black Widow, Runaway Bride, Operation Petticoat...

dad: "Where are you going with those?"
me: "Goodwill"
dad: "Why??"
mom: "Because we can't watch them anymore."
dad: "Sure we can, we have the player."
me: "Where?" *gesturing to lack of vcr under the tv*
dad: "I have three players downstairs somewhere."
me: *adding to mental list of items to go*

- Sorry sir, but even we have standards -- nm - Goodwill Nov 25, 20:14 3
  - Yeah, there was an Empire Strikes Back pinball game in there that doesn't even qualify as garbage. (nm) - David Nov 25, 20:17 2
    - you should have EBayed that, some Star Wars nutter would have paid through the nose -- nm - Beaker Nov 26, 04:19 1
      - I couldn't take advantage of a stupid Star Wars sucker like that. -- nm - David Nov 26, 08:43
"good catch, dad. better take all those players with me too" -- nm - black pixie Nov 25, 20:07 2
- I'm saving Spaceship, though. -- nm - Max Nov 25, 20:09 1
  - When I tossed mine, I did keep one too. I paid 50 bucks for that rarity way back when. Now it's like available easily via TLA. -- nm - Qale Nov 25, 22:40
