@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org ah memories. first time I visited my ex-in laws beach cottage, I (the newly graduated 'engineer') was handed a VCR that wasn't working after a young nephew had been playing with it.
turns out the kid had put a banana in the tape slot, as one does.

@pixelpusher220@dmv.community @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org when I was a kid I remember my mom pulling a pickle out of ours...I was the only person that would've done that but I was also the one complaining it wasn't working 😭

@pixelpusher220@dmv.community @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org I knew a television studio engineer who’d tell people he drove a truck so people wouldn’t ask him to fix their TV’s.
