DICKtator: I don't understand





Why use a rewinder then when there was the rewind button?

BlackSwede: Found this in my villa.



I do know well many have not seen these items let alone watched or listened to them. Only the 70's to the 80's crew must have.

So much advancement with time.

Oya wey d back-in-the-days crooners? how many of una fit mention 2 lead actors abi bozz for this film without asking google?

texanomaly:

I never knew that a VCR ever came without a rewind button. Am I missing something?

khiaa:

This is what I was saying also. Apparently they made vcr's without the rewind installed, which is new to me.

khiaa:


My mom has those albums in her collection, I love Carribean Queen, and my father loved to watch Sylvester Stalone, I miss my dad .

lomaxbien:

Kachisbarbie:

So teens are the indomie generation?

You said there is still Bacchus? I heard dey rebranded sometime, but I haven't seen it in the market since then.

SMALLPENIS: I was just ransacking my old room in my family house and I found these
indomie generation would never guess right what they are used for.

So my fellow Nlanders,do you remember?

naptu2: And, of course, this.

No one will let you rewind with the VCR. It is (or was) very slow, plus there is no 'light' NEPA, and it spoils the tape. We used to say it makes the tape dirty.

Just put a small match stick into the tiny hole in the tape and use your KNIFE as gizmo to rotate the teeths of the tape anticlockwise. VOILA.! You are rewinding it. Or simply use the device from the OP.

cc: khiaa amd other diasporians.

naptu2: Haha. We called them cartridges.

8 track tape.

prof800:
I hated it!


Ah!

I was the youngest at home then and my elder ones would ALWAYS ask me to do the rewinding... huh!

Those dudes can watch the same movie over again one million times. Then they'll ask prof800 to rewind "Equalizer 2000" and "Hard Way the only way" while watching "evil dead"for the billionth time. Frustrating. It made me develop hatred for re-watching movies to this day. Once I've seen a movie, that's it. Nothing will make me want to see it again cos I don't want to rewind it with this:

...before we bought this we used to use KNIFE to do the rewinding.
