I was telling a kid today how we'd sit by the radio, hoping to record a song onto a cassette tape, pleading with the gods that we wouldn't miss the start, and that the DJ wouldn't talk over the end of the song, or fade it into another one

She accused me of being from the stone age

The closest I ever got was being on the blaseball discord listening to fansongs, hearing one i liked, and scrambling to find it only to realize the HQ version sounds like shit

Fucking radio dudes stepping on the songs. Our limewire ass generation take the ease for granted. You had to really make an effort back In the day.

Kids will never know the satisfaction of fully filling a 90 minute tape with no weird silences at the ends of each side

Silence? Nah, here's half a song, hope you weren't enjoying that one.

Don't forget to mention using the pause button rather than stop. You don't want the sound of the tape speeding up on the next song.
