Would it fucking kill you to put the fucking CDs back in their fucking sleeves?

footfootfoot • Dec 14, 2009 1:55 pm
I know it's asking too much to expect you to put them back in their own sleeves so I'm willing to compromise: just put them back in any sleeve at all.
Undertoad • Dec 14, 2009 2:14 pm
Fine. Fine. The kid will just want to hear another hour of Yanni and we will just have to pull it out of it's sleeve again, to satisfy *your* little issue. If you took care of these kids as much as I do, you'd realize that the sleeves are our last concern, and by the way maybe I want that CD to get scratched, but no. Too busy thinking about your own concerns, once again.
TheMercenary • Dec 14, 2009 2:24 pm
Mine never get returned. I don't think it is for either of those reasons. It is because they don't care, don't think about it, or don't have a clue that it is important to me they get returned. I spend an hour or so putting them all back in place every few months.
lumberjim • Dec 14, 2009 2:26 pm
do they use them to skate around on the hardwood floors too? ...no I'm not bitter about the complete disdain that kids today have for CD/DVD format entertainment modules. at all.

Actually, I'm the bad guy in my house. I sometimes just take them out of the tray and put them on top of their respective jewel case on top of the cabinet. Pisses my wife off. I try, but sometimes forget.

Do, or do not. There is no try.

But then I have to go to all the effort of getting the goddamn things out again the next time I want to play them. AND I usually only have one hand available 'cause I'm multitasking doing all the other shit that needs done around here and your precious sleeves rate way way way down the totem pole of importantness so no deal.

Jus' sayin'.
Cloud • Dec 14, 2009 5:52 pm
things in my house that require me to open something, put in, then close . . . never get put away. Open pockets or sleeves would work for me with frequently used items.

If you can't put the fucking CD/DVD back in the case, here's an idea -

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=7]DON'T FUCKING TOUCH IT!!!![/SIZE]
[/COLOR]
[COLOR=DarkOrange][COLOR=Black]I don't want my stuff all scratched up.
I bought it because I liked it, not for you to put your grubby fucking mitts all over.
And I don't lend out my stuff anymore.
I lent my 'Hollywood Babylon' books, and the fuck cut out pages.
I told him that I wouldn't spit on him if he was on fire.
Never talked to that asshole again.
One of The Wife's friends 'borrowed' my copy of 'Rubiyat' 2 tape set.
He 'lost' it.
Now, I don't loan out anything.
Oh, you want to borrow my Robert Johnson set? I'll copy it for you. Not good enough? Too fucking bad.
You didn't pay for it. I did. You fuck it up, I have to replace it.

/Rant Over.

And if you put all the songs onto an MP3 type contraption and had speakers for it, so that it wasn't necessary to actually remove any CDs from their cases, would that work? (fully prepared to be shouted down here).
xoxoxoBruce • Dec 15, 2009 3:01 am
[shouting down] That's not the point. [/shouting down] :lol2:

Speaking of which, I really should return Casi's CDs that I borrowed :lol:

In their cases.

No, but if you can't change the person (and you never can), change the circumstances. You can decline to lend your stuff to suck-ups, like CG, you can lock them away, burn a copy, or you can put them on MP3. It beats a fucked up CD.
Qice • Dec 15, 2009 10:49 am
xoB is correct - not the point.
The point is too many people don't have respect for another's belongings - maybe it's the idea of a more disposable lifestyle? -
"hey you have it, I want it, and if I lose, break, never return it well you can just get another,there are plenty more down at WallyWorld, no big deal"
With kids and teens you can almost (just almost) forgive them - we may have been the same way -
But when we're discussing adults who show no respect for another persons belongings, it drives me batshit - adults should know better.

I don't think any of my CDs work anymore. We are lucky to have working DVDs. That probably tells you how good about this I am.
glatt • Dec 16, 2009 2:02 pm
Do you still have that cool record player? How is the vinyl collection?
kerosene • Dec 16, 2009 3:17 pm
I do have that cool record player! And I have added Waylon Jennings and the Marshall Tucker band to my record collection in the past month. I always peruse the records when I go to the Goodwill. Of course, that means digging through multiple copies of things like Herb Alpert and Tijuana Brass, but I can usually turn something up to enjoy. Unfortunately, the player is acting funny, lately. It seems like it won't spin fast enough, though I have it on the correct setting for 33s.
monster • Dec 16, 2009 4:56 pm
You should use your sewing skills to make ez cd cases, case
casimendocina • Dec 16, 2009 5:27 pm
No matter how awesome the CD cases, if people won't put the CDs back, then.... (heavy sigh and shrug of shoulders)

Ironic that case is the one who can't re-case the CD/DVDs.
kerosene • Dec 16, 2009 7:00 pm
I never thought about it that way. And yeah, casi is right. I would make something to put CDs in, but it would just be another empty case laying around.
Crimson Ghost • Dec 16, 2009 7:06 pm
But then you could make something to put that in, and something to put that one in, and then you divide by zero, and humanity is wiped from existence.

The more I think about it, the more I like the idea....
kerosene • Dec 16, 2009 7:07 pm
I like it, too, CG. I will get to work on that right away.
monster • Dec 16, 2009 7:20 pm
How about I consider putting the fucking CDs back in the fucking sleeves the day you put the toilet lid and seat down and replace the goddamn toilet roll?
Tulip • Dec 17, 2009 1:16 am
Funny, I thought the person who would be bitching about this would come from a woman, but it's a man who's bitchin'. :D Foot3, I hear ya. We have scratched up and missing cds. My sister doesn't put cds back to its case and when my mom sees a loose cd lying around, she'll stick it into anywhere, whatever case, sleeve, or corner, so the place won't look messy. :headshake

I'm actually the one who keeps the lid down and I'll get right on the toilet paper thing when I finish installing the gizmo that holds the toilet paper in the first place.

Which leads me to another question: Why is it that men, who need to sit on the toilet seat to poop, always remember to check if the seat is down before they sit on it, but women don't?
Tulip • Dec 18, 2009 4:35 pm
Because we always sit down, so the seat should always be down, so why check? Now this leads me to wonder. Unless it's in the middle of the night and the woman's eyes are closed while heading to bathroom and use the toilet (it's possilbe, right?), shouldn't a person see if the toilet seat is up or down? Just wondering. I don't live with a man, so the toilet seat is not an issue with me. However, whenever I'm at someone else's home and I must, absolutely need to use the bathroom :p, I can always see if the seat is up or down. Anyhoo, just wondering. :D

Crimson Ghost • Dec 18, 2009 11:32 pm
You should still look, because if the lids down, that's a mess you'll need to clean up.

You'll be looking in the closet for them decorative towels you got 20 years ago from Aunt Martha, thinking "Eh, she's dead, and I've got a crisis here."
footfootfoot • Dec 19, 2009 10:41 am
Why have rear-view mirrors in cars? You shouldn't need to bother looking in them, it's not an issue if there is no one behind you...

Well, I've got the computer disks I need handy in a disk caddy. Move the arrow to a slot, push a button, and up pops your disk. The 50-disk version is about 12 inches from end-to-end.

Wow, all of that storage in a space smaller than my :blush:
jujuwwhite • Dec 20, 2009 6:59 am
Thanks guys, ya'll have given me the idea to mess with capnhowdy and take all his cd's out of their proper cases and just randomly put them in the wrong cases so we can actually have something to fight about for the first time!!
