Am I a stupid human?

...maybe...
I wanted all my aphex singles (on ventolin donkey rhubarb
AB4 etcetc.) in normal CD-jewelcases instead of
CDsingle-cases of cardboards...
so I cut all the paper of the singles with my scissors
untill I could place them in a normal jewelcase...
i managed (with glue and god knows what) to finish them
all...
..but sometimes i think i should've kept them in their
original thin single-jewelcases..

what have i done?!

NB if i ever get my hands on a GAK on CD i'll never ruin
that one

Um, I done that but I used a scanner and cut the copied
paper not the original card.

why did you wanted them on 'normal' cd cases??

That's a much better solution.
Could've just bought the UK versions. They all come in
plastic jewel cases. Except AB4. I can't think of any other
aphex CD singles that come in card sleeves...

I made a side strip too so you can see what they are. I hate
the card packs as they get ratty and look shite next to
other CDs.

i used to have a CD-reck (is that english??) where normal
jewelcases fit in well.. so i wanted all the singles in as
well

that why i changed/ruined them (also the ones in thin
single-jewelcases, i wanted them in normal ones too..

oh god, someone tell me that i'm normal

It's not so bad. They will look good now. You are normal.
Everything is ok.

you're normal!

i wouldn't ever have done this, but that doesn't make you
anormal... maybe you'll regret it, we all make mistakes :)

Points: 10000 Status: Addict



thanks guys..

but there's another thing i have to confess..
as you know AB3 comes in a thin CDsingle-jewelcase with two
stickers on it..

of course mister morton wanted that release in a normal
jewelcase as well..
so i carefully pulled the stickers off an attached them onto
a (totally transparent) normal CD-case with superglue

it looks quite good though.. the hardest part was pulling
the stickers off.. they're really weak.. while i was busy
with it i didn't dare to breath.. if i would have damaged
one sticker i think i would have buyed AB3 again...

silly things things that keep me busy...

I wanted to do that but I was too gutless. I'm planning on
scanning that and making some sort of basic cover too. }:>

well that sure isn't a nice thing to say
but i guess you're right, fellow-hollander

i think i'll quit changing my CD-cases..
'cause yesterday i had another problem, i got
GantzGrafDVD..and that jewelcase is higher than all the
others...
AAAH should i get my saw (not meaning Sel. Amb. Works in
this matter) now!?!?!

i'm desperate :(
the DVD is cool though...

I'd recommend getting some shelves made for your CDs, and
binning the rack. There's many different types of packaging
for CDs in my collection and if I tried to put them all into
standard jewel cases, I'd still be doing it in 2010.
I wouldn't like to suggest you're not normal, cos who can
say what normal is... I was just kinda horrified that anyone
would willingly ruin the packaging of a recording.


 

offline Morton from out (Netherlands, The) on 2002-12-03 08:04 [#00466361]
Points: 10000 Status: Addict



i already have shelves by now..
the thing that bothers me though is that the
GantzGrafCD/DVD-case sticks out because it's higher..
maybe i'll just have to live with this

Dear Morton,
i cant exactly explain how i feel right now, the insanity of
ur post made me dry so i had to drink a lot of liquid to not
faint away... then realizing the deep horror of it (i lost
one or two covers and i make nightmares about them, so
actually cutting them into pieces for a so stupid
reason...)

well look who's here!
shouldn't you be working mister BB!?!

may i remind you of the fact that you bought AB3 twice,
'cause you ruined the sticker yourself!!! you @#$@$@$@ !!!

and i haven't even mentioned you buying 'RDJ album' twice,
because (no people this isn't a joke!) on the first one you
bought the WARP logo was upside down!!!

thanks a million for bumping this up again! the least i
could do now i kill you

:)
"sure morton"
"you wouldn't kill a fly"
"not 'cause you're such a nice dude, but 'cause you're not
able to"
