Not I.

I started out a bit more high tech.

I was buying cassettes.

I did, that's all we knew as a kid and teen. I still have some too...

[Jera]

I still buy music on vinyl. Even more modern artists.... it just sounds better, and they still do make them.

And I'm only 28, not exactly part of the vinyl generations.

[LordKAT]

I still have a pile of my 45's, and albums.

I used to listen to my dad's vinyl collection when I was little. When I started buying my own music, though, it was on cassettes. Later I started a small vinyl collection of my own, but it was an expensive hobby for someone so poor, so I gave it up.

I had a huge vinyl collection in younger days    lot's of collectible stuff, probably could have started my own record store

Unfortunately most of it got stolen after I became injured and could barely walk and then other things happened

I really miss my old LP records 

Such is life

Me too, unfortunately many of them became warped from storing them on edge rather than flat. Then I found a 1st edition Red Ryder  and a 1st edition Superman comic both in mint condition in the bottom of an old trunk several years ago and not knowing their worth took $100 for them both at the time...DUH! What did P.T. Barnum say now?

...Seriously though, Justin Bieber and today's music being better than the Beatles O_O, still can't get over it. There are people who can seriously believe that and in the video the showed the kid's Beatles songs, not like they are saying this without ever hearing a song from the beatles

It's always been like that. Way back when the Sgt. Pepper movie came out a friend of mine was on a bus. Two teenaged girls were in the seat ahead of him and said "I heard this new band called the Beatles, they do Beegees songs!" Shoot me now! My son was raised with respect for the classics.

Raises hand. I still have American Pie on 45 somewhere. Song is so long that the end of it is on the flip side. Want to cause confusion? Get a t-shirt with the 45 adapter on in and watch teenagers try to figure out what group it's a symbol for.

[Miss_Bungle1991]

I had a small collection of vinyl for a short period of time in 1998 to 2000-2001ish. I had an assortment of Noise, Grindcore and Death Metal 7"'s (both 'full' & 'splits'), 10"'s, and LP's. I had a decent mix of colored vinyls too. But once my turntable broke down (it was a crappy belt drive one that my dad bought at Radio Shack) and then my stereo receiver blew up a few years later. I sold/traded off what I had.

No history of vaginal contact = no need for a pap smear according to my GP and the surgeon who will be performing my surgery.

F* yes.

[Bombadil]

I really need my therp to answer my email

[V M]

A guy that I probably might have ignored a few years ago was totally checkin' me out when I went to pick up a script at the pharmacy

But he was very polite and looked like a cute puppy wagging it's tail for such a big guy, not heavy set, but rather tall and and looked to be in pretty good shape for his age

So I just smiled and said howdy as I walked by, who knows if I'll ever see him somewhere again or not but it was nice to have someone showing genuine interest without being creepy about it

[Miss_Bungle1991]

I hate being on these stupid anti anxiety/psych meds. I hate having to deal with frickin doctors that are an hour away from here. I hate worrying about what could happen if the scripts don't get filled and the possible affects from not being able to take it.

I wish I were just on E again.

[Adam (birkin)]

I literally don't know if I could handle finishing off my job after giving notice, so I am seriously considering just...abandoning the position and letting them fire me. I just can't deal with it. But I'm scared that somehow it will get back to my other job. I LOVE my main job, it's amazing, my boss is amazing, the clients are awesome, my coworkers are the bomb. If my main job heard about this, put my head on the chopping block, and fired me, my heart would be broken. I think I'm being paranoid though.

Don't know your whole situation, but I'd probably just try to tough it out after giving notice.  Save myself the anxiety. 

[Adam (birkin)]

That's a good point because I'd be paranoid for a long time after getting fired. But I'd probably have to show up drunk in order to not lose my ->-bleeped-<- in the other situation.

That said, the people at my main job seem to like me a lot. =/ I get paranoid but I was told by a coworker that she has heard others speak very highly of me. And I do have something to offer my main job, I'm a hard worker and very flexible, I'd like to consider myself someone that they can rely on. But if they somehow heard I got fired, would they wonder if I'd bail on them too? I totally wouldn't but they might wonder.

This is a key point for any future job you try for also. Don't bail, stick it out or at the very least , be upfront about when you are leaving.

[Adam (birkin)]

Well I haven't been at this other one for very long, my probation isn't even done so I doubt I'd need to list it on my resume...

[LordKAT]

You may though. Some places do pretty thorough checks and may wonder why you lied about working there, until they find out that you were fired. Then they wonder about other things you were hiding or refuse to hire or decide to fire for being untruthful on the application. I have actually seen the latter happen.
