I have just spread peanut butter on my Derek B 7" and it plays perfectly.

Chunky or smooth?

Jesus wept.

That is silly. Soon it will be unplayable. You silly billy.

The gooseberry stuff I spread on my copy of "The Aerosol Grey Machine" made it sound a bloody sight better, but that's the 'Generator for ya.

I spilt wax on one of my Trojan SKA! cd's. It now does not play. But seeing as my CD player is very fussy I have noticed so much!

Haha my CD player is currently being BULLIED into playing Vanessa Carlton and Puddle[s?] of Mudd (sorry Tom I haf nicked a focus group CD).

Thats OK there's no urgent need for one. Are you doing more of your grebt BALLOT!

I once spilt sugary tea on a David Sylvian/Robert Fripp double CD-single. Months later (when I actually felt like hearing it again), there were extraordinarily intricate crystalline patterns on the surface of the disc - some kind of Amazing And Beautiful World of Science thing had occurred.

It wouldn't play properly, so I swabbed it down with isopropyl alcohol.

I am somewhat perturbed that only one person has noticed that N. has gone completely bonkers.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 14:34 (twenty-three years ago)

Nick you are a spectre of whiplash

― Mike Hanle y (mike), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 14:36 (twenty-three years ago)

N. obviously swapped identities with 'Mad' Richey Manic in Goa.

― RickyT (RickyT), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 14:41 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh cripes. I should type that up. Can I borrow your laptop one evening to get it done?

Be lucky that I do not believe that I should be allowed to edit my Live Focus Group Comments - or else you would be getting an essay on Vanessa Carlton which I came up with as I was dropping asleep last night.

Be glad for sleep o readers for I haf totally forgotten it now hurrah.

― Sarah (starry), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 14:51 (twenty-three years ago)

Derek B! He is one bad brother.

― DV (dirtyvicar), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 14:52 (twenty-three years ago)

Wax all over my Minor Threat CD. Completely unplayable...

― OCP (OCP), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 14:59 (twenty-three years ago)

Now do you see what happens when you don't put CDs back in their boxes?

― Madchen (Madchen), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 15:35 (twenty-three years ago)

This thread title made me laugh so hard, thank you for that

― J0hn Darn13ll3 (J0hn Darn13ll3), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 15:37 (twenty-three years ago)

Machen, is that a reply to RickyT?

― Graham (graham), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 15:42 (twenty-three years ago)

Starry you should have sleepwalked to a web cafe and posted it to NYLPM!!

I like Vanessa's big hit more than Avril's - what's wrong with me?

― Tom (Groke), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 16:18 (twenty-three years ago)

Nothing at all - it is a fantastic song. I think it should be the first dance at your reception.

Tom bear in mind that sleepwalking me would surely reckon that the first interweb station I wd reach upon leaving my cosy bed would have been the one in YOUR BEDROOM and quite frankly that would have led to all kinds ov ERROR.

― Sarah (starry), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 16:23 (twenty-three years ago)

I agree with Sarah; "A Thousand Miles" is, well, a thousand miles better than every Avril song I've heard.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 16:40 (twenty-three years ago)

I have a sticker at home that says 'I bumped my head today - please keep an eye on me'. I think I should give it to N.

― Archel (Archel), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 17:09 (twenty-three years ago)

Kids these days! In my day we had a song called A Hundred Miles, and we were happy with that and perhaps a soggy biscuit, if we were good. Now you kids have to have your Thousand Miles and a jam tart. Or, failing that, a pie.

― Aimless, Wednesday, 27 November 2002 17:41 (twenty-three years ago)

No Vanessa Carlton, please. Sugar overload at the wedding will be bad enough with the cake. ;-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 17:55 (twenty-three years ago)

Vanessa Carlton rules! I like her new hair style!

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 17:59 (twenty-three years ago)

N., did you put the red-bellied spiders up your nose?

― Mooro (Mooro), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 22:55 (twenty-three years ago)

Peter Powell was doing this tonight on the documentary about EMI. Ah those were the days, when people spent £15 on a new technology and immediately covered it in jam. That's why CD's are superior to MP3.

― Billy Dods (Billy Dods), Wednesday, 27 November 2002 23:03 (twenty-three years ago)

You know, you can spread jam on a CD without damaging it. I show you, here's a big dollop of jam, let's wipe it off now, into the CD player and...oh.

― Kieran Prendiville, Wednesday, 27 November 2002 23:36 (twenty-three years ago)

Derek B's bullet-like brilliance shines through even the murkiest of preserves.

Hang on, what's all this about wiping it off again? D'oh!

two weeks pass...

This is what I want for Christmas

― N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 13:01 (twenty-three years ago)

Arf. What's wrong with just putting them in the microwave to see the pretty sparks? Danger! Danger! High v...er, where was I?

― Liz :x (Liz :x), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 13:06 (twenty-three years ago)

I wouldn't want to get my tongue caught in that.

Funnily enough, I have the stamper from the same range. That only destroys CD-Rs if you stamp on the wrong side. You should see my impressive collection of sticky middles.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 13:09 (twenty-three years ago)

The slogan on the box is 'Insert It. Twist It. Destroy It.' (their emphasis).

CD Destroyer vs. CD Repair Kit FITE.
