I found my brother's Creed cd while cleaning up today, and I tried to break it in half with my hands (for obvious reasons). To my surprise, it was very resilient.
So I put in it a vice, figuring it would just snap.
It didn't fucking budge.
So I sawed the fucker, and it shattered.

...sorry, just had to ask...
He's away for the weekend actually. Unless he finds the ripped booklet in the bin, I'm guessing he won't even notice the favour I just did him.

I'm sure he'd thank you for it later.
I like being thanked.

Laura, my mates and I, we had a barbie night where we chucked all our shit into this fire after we got done eating. CDs crack up pretty easily when you put it in a fire.

I used to work in a record store, and in one very bored moment , we tried different things to make a CD skip. You be amazed at the durability of them. Highlighters, pen, etc. It took a good deep cut with a razor to make it unplayable.

One time I tried to destroy a shitty cd for fun by rubbing it on a wicker chair. It took about 5 tries before a skip developed. So I cut it with a pair of scissors, that worked.
