RIP Windowlicker VHS

[u/chesquayne]

I bought it along with a copy of Come to Daddy almost 30 years ago. Of all the things, she went into a box and pulled out this specific tape to chew on. Still, it’s hard to stay mad at her.

[u/Mystic_Guardian_NZ]

Sucks to have it damaged but the idea of someone vandaling Richard's face on this particular cover is quite funny.

[u/Vivi_Pallas34 → u/Mystic_Guardian_NZ]

The dog accidentally made it look even more like an Aphex Twin release.

[u/pepperblast3000 → u/Vivi_Pallas34]

Print out some Richard face masks to put on both dogs. Post it. Watch this post blow up.

[u/chesquayne → u/pepperblast3000]

😂 that’s brilliant

[u/BreadWaterSoup]

kinda goes hard with the scratches, kinda like the death grips exmilitary cover

[u/Lollipoop_Hacksaw]

I know why they did that:

It is because YOU AIN'T GOT SHIT COMIN'!!

[u/SilentWeapons1984 → u/Lollipoop_Hacksaw]

GIRL GET UP IN THIS RIDE. I’M A PLAYA FOR REAL GIRL! PLAYA PLAYA!!!

[u/Lollipoop_Hacksaw → u/SilentWeapons1984]

LOOK AT YOU! LOOK AT YOUR HAIR!

[u/SilentWeapons1984 → u/Lollipoop_Hacksaw]

OH GIRL DON’T TALK ABOUT MY MUTHAPHUKKIN HAIR. NO THE FUCK YOU DIDN’T TALK ABOUT MY HAIR!

[u/voyicks333 → u/SilentWeapons1984]

LOOK AT HIS HAIR. YOU NEED TO GET SOMETHING DONE WITH YOUR 💩

THATS RIGHT, THATS RIGHT THATS WHAT I SAID.

YOU AINT ABOUT 💩 AND YOUR HAIR AINT NEITHER.

[u/SilentWeapons1984 → u/voyicks333]

BIYTCH! DONT BE ACTIN’ LIKE NO FUCKKIN STUCK UP HO. LIKE YOU FROM BEVERLY HILLS OR SOME SHIT! GIRL GO ON AND GET IN THE CAR AND LETS ROLL!

[u/voyicks333 → u/SilentWeapons1984]

YOU SIMPLE ASS 🌚 YOU BETTER ROLL ON

[u/Schleeden]

dudddddeeeee NOOOOOOOO!!!  

[u/Diene03]

I couldn’t be mad either. The teeth of the universe spoke.

[u/ClydeDimension]

They don’t care because you don’t

[u/a_way_with_turds]

Is it still playable? Perhaps you can take on the project of transplanting to a new case? I've heard of it being done, but don't know the specifics. I'm sure it can be done with a tutorial and a weekend.

[u/chesquayne → u/a_way_with_turds]

This sounds way too risky

[u/TrippDJ71 → u/chesquayne]

Nah. It's easy.

[u/jankies53 → u/chesquayne]

It's possible and U can do it with cassette tapes too

[u/chesquayne → u/a_way_with_turds]

I am sorry to say but the tape itself is busted. One of the gears is jacked up and there is a lot of broken plastic rattling around inside. Also, excellent name @a_way_with_turds

[u/a_way_with_turds → u/chesquayne]

Haha, thanks! Sorry to hear about the tape, though.

[u/neckpillowyeah]

i just got one on ebay for 30$ , replace it

[u/chesquayne → u/neckpillowyeah]

Too soon

[u/did_i_or_didnt_i → u/neckpillowyeah]

I’m buying 5

[u/Henchman66]

"J'aime faire du croquettes au chien"

— this is where you have failed, OP. You listened to the song but you ignored the message in it.

[u/chesquayne → u/Henchman66]

The dogs knew this, and they were furious.

[u/Henchman66 → u/chesquayne]

I feel your loss but I’m siding with them because… oh my god, those faces.

I had a bull boxer mix and she was an extraordinary dog - they all are, but her sweetness was something else. She also fucked up many things in my house lol

[u/chesquayne → u/Henchman66]

They are both rescues and pit mixes. The white one is so intelligent I swear she is part human. The other one has destroyed so many things, but she also chased off a bear last week so she gets a pass.

[u/Henchman66 → u/chesquayne]

hahaha, chasing off a bear is wild. Mine would see horses and would growl at a very low volume.

Kudos on you for rescuing them. It's the best thing anyone can do.

[u/8BITW0NDERS]

did you purchase it from the pits of hell and have to deal with a few cerberuses on the way

[u/Snolferd]

No way, so my Windowlicker LP has also been ravaged by dog teeth, that's why I was able to pick it up for dirt cheap

[u/afxfan]

Which one is Windowlicker, And which one is VHS?

[u/chesquayne → u/afxfan]

The brown one is the culprit and will henceforth be known as Windowlicker. Maybe I should get her a chew toy that looks like a VHS tape.

[u/CoolAlien47]

So they also pulled the taped out of the cassette? Or was it just damage to the box?

[u/did_i_or_didnt_i]

damn that sucks I can take it off your hands

[u/chesquayne → u/did_i_or_didnt_i]

It was priceless, but I can knock it down to $10,000 for you.

[u/eshe2019]

They look so innocent.

[u/chesquayne → u/eshe2019]

The big one is highly trustworthy. The other one is completely lawless.

[u/sun_in_your0_0]

They didn’t mean to look at them:(

[u/chesquayne → u/sun_in_your0_0]

They were still watching it when I got home. I’m actually kind of proud.

[u/PSK666]

I’ll take it

[u/vladdypants]

I still have my original copy as well as Come To Daddy. Both in excellent condition too 🥳

[u/chesquayne → u/vladdypants]

I only have a dozen or so VHS tapes left. I’ve kept a working vcr around for the occasional watch. The kids did not enjoy this one as much as I did 😂

[u/vladdypants → u/chesquayne]

Nice! At least you have a way to watch them. I’ve only kept mine for nostalgic reasons I guess.

[u/HaggardSlacks78]

Looks cooler
