being broke and having to record on SLP to stretch out your money..................even though the quality was lower
I used to record a Puerto Rican version of Benny Hill called "No Te Duermas" because they had half naked chicks running around

Recording Mighty Morphin power rangersI remember my mom recording Home Alone 2 for me when it debut on HBO. Used to wear the tape down lol. Soul Train Award shows, sporting events, Raw is war and Nitro, MTV MJ marathons. What kind of stuff did y’all used to record. Do you still have the tapes?
Learnt how to dub (record from one tape to another) tapes and used to go to the video store and just record whatever shyt I liked instead of saving up money to rent tapes over and over again.

borrowing vcrs to dub
That scene always made me laugh harder 'cause my first copy of Friday was indeed a dub. Folk used to try and pull this shyt and 9/10 times it would always end up in tears 'cause you'd either get your VCR wrecked, get the spools all fukked up or bent, or folk would straight up just look to swap your machine with another one that don't work, thinking ' cause they handed it to you looking clean on your porch and walked off, shyt was sweet.

My uncle used to burn his initials someplace safe within all his machines just so he could roll up on fools and swing if they tried to swap out they shyts for his, 'cause at the time there was little to no diversity in brands for us, since we live on a small island that imports everything and only got like one or two electronic stores.
Was damn near a VCR Repairman as a kid, when he gave me one of his old machines, I used to record so much shyt and wear out the components.![]()
