Now I’ve been asked how to burn a CD. These time warps are disorienting.

Bring out an old rotary dial telephone and witness the confusion.

Real problem at work. I needed to read a cd rom, everybody is on laptops without drives. Poor planning.

My kid has confiscated our cds and refers to them as "her collection".

I sold all mine. As well as all the vinyl. Not even sad about it. Well except for that Ride the Lightning picture disc. That was cool.

I have a mp3/cd player in my car so I still get to play them. Two are permanently in there. Dark Side Of The Moon and The Very Best Of Supertramp.

Oh nice. They say Dark Side is the greatest album in the history of music 😀

Awesome Mix vol.2 is sure to get the party started.

Also just off topic, do I remember correctly that you like Paramore ? If so are you going to the show?

or did I just conjure another false memory?

That was not me. I am a Linkin Park, Good Charlotte, Simple Plan, MCR fan.

Be grateful that wax cylinders are no longer a thing.
