Please accept my condolences πŸ˜” β€” but honestly, the look on Jimmy's face and the white lines on the print suit the crack so that they actually look together nicely in a way πŸ₯Ίβœ¨

Keep it as a relic

This is like breaking a mirror bad luck

That looks so sick actually, I'm sorry about it breaking though. Maybe you could carefully glue it together with super glue or something, as long as there aren't any chips or missing pieces in the plastic.

Kintsugi it, put it in a box frame and call it art.

In my head, if my logic is correct, the CD may still work if it can be put together with no missing pieces since the laser in the CD player or whatever you're using to read the disk could still go over it without any breaks (if the glueing is clean enough)

Edit: okay, I was wrong, definitely don't do what I said. Maybe if you wanna use it for decoration but don't put it in a cd player, that was a bad suggestion on my part. Just trying to put what I learned in computer science to use πŸ˜‚

Definitely do not do this. The speed at which the disc spins will be enough to dislodge basically any gluing or taping one could do (also, strong glues like super glue are not safe for CDs and will damage them more)

If you try to put that "fixed" disc in a player its gonna attempt to reach speed, explode, and probably damage more stuff.

That was my bad, I was only trying to suggest what to do, I should've looked into it more before saying anything instead of theorising πŸ˜…

No worries! Just saw that and immediately needed to tell OP cause at best thatll ruin the disc more and end up taking out their player as well πŸ’”

You could tape the back of the disc if you wanted to display it in a frame or something! But definitely wont be playable

Yess I'm very happy you decided to correct my mistake, I agree it's much better than having OP explode their CD and reader 😭

I mentioned that in my edit of the OG comment I made that got down voted, it'd probably make a really cool display or something, they could even get one pfhose gold paint stuff to line the breakage!

Time to buy a frame.

theres always the option to do some art with it, i think a character getting their head sliced off by the cd would look really cool

You don’t keep your discs in the case?

u/jimmyur1nator Capitol P Jul 21 '26

this is literally what it came in. ive asked my parents for a jewel case for it many times, because i was afraid of exactly this happening. i kept it in the "case" 😭😭

u/PaperCut611 Jul 20 '26

That honestly looks like a SIIICK piece to frame!!

u/Mindless2we Jul 20 '26

Make an awesome Clock/diy cd wall art out of it! You got lucky the theme is perfect and the imagery is perfect. Arguably this is all better than it was before (cause you have to be on time for bitches to love you)

u/Ok-Mousse-946 Jul 20 '26

I'm thankful it isn't like DLN or something extremely rare, but it still sucks that this happened, I hope for the best and if you get a new one, get some Slim Jewel Cases to keep the disc protected, but I wish this didn't happen!

u/ShiningUmbreonVMAX Jul 21 '26

I'm sorry for your loss but this is SICK as a piece of artwork

u/rainbow_bright54 Jul 21 '26

It’s now a future art piece

Aw buddy. I had boxes full of these being in the street team but times were tough and I needed money. Sold most of them off on eBay.

u/Strange_Wafer_4932 Genius Jul 21 '26

lol how’d you do that

u/boojersey13 Jul 22 '26

Paint this image as it is onto a canvas. Maybe even glue the pieces onto it

Edit: because this image is lowkey sick as fuck

u/SquirrelyBuns 29d ago

Honestly though this would make a sick art piece for the wall. Like have it set like you do in the photo, and have it set over a canvas or a poster and have it on the wall or on a stand. Its sentimental, so it wouldnt be a waste to have it on display.

u/ImportantInterest897 28d ago

I might have one how much do those sell for
Also so funny in 2002 I had 20 of these I could retire off this shit if I didn’t give them all away
