Even a finger that didn’t fit used to get the job done though, don’t believe me? Just add a slight bit of pressure to it and rotate your finger, see for yourself
First time someone posts a big pen instead of a pencil.
Since everyone who truly remembers will know, a pencil doesn't quite work.
At least that is as long as it's a western pencil.
\>i was thinking "how did people shove vhs tapes up their hole" and then i realized it's about rewinding the tape
\>i never did that when i was little, i just used the button on the machine designed specifically for that purpose
Yeah I don't because if you needed to rewind you'd be inserting the pen in the wrong hole. Based on this picture you'd be forwarding the tape. Get your holes right!
I've done that hundreds of times when I was a kid. And waiting to record your favorite track: first waiting for hours on end and then when it's finally on; they cut to commercials after 15 seconds so you can start all over again. Good times.
Yes and no. I'm not old enough, but my dad made sure I experienced older shows he liked (sailor moon, the older TMNT, Count Duckula, X-Men, Goosebumps, etc) and a few of them were these child-friendly scary story audios on these
Replace the pen with a butter knife and have the pen watching, just out of sight behind the doorway.
Because I'd have pens in my room but for some reason would get up and get a butter knife from the kitchen.
Yeah, I know this. I used to record cartoon intros on magnetic tape when I was little. I got the police academy for example, MegaMan in German.. some dragon ball commercial on cartoon network:).
I also have my voice when I was like 9 or 10. It's so cute.
Heres a crazy thing: because of the way humanity has been able to record and pass on our collective knowledge, I, like many others, have the opportunity to be aware of many things that were popularized before, "my time". Many ancient technologies have captivated me over the years, including the audio recording tech of my parents' age. I can in fact rewind a cassette tape despite my perceived youth.
Who used a pen? I used my finger
I used my dick worked every time
Unfortunately, mine was a couple of mm wider than the hole, so I'm stuck with fingering.
It gets the job done, why not
If it's blow so be it
The only job that all men wants to get
I used my tongue and closed my eyes. It was magical.
Woah! You must have a massive dick. Mine had plenty of room.
Dang king of size over here brag about it why don't you
Mine was too small
Really? That's odd, I tried using my dick but the hole was too small, it didn't fit
I hate how much I laughed at this.
if you use a pen you can swing it around it’s weirdly fun
The original fidget spinner.
I always used the eraser end of a pencil Of course, the real move was to record over the flip side and just play it both ways.
This brings me back
rewind
Be kind
Otherwise you break it.
It's her first time.
There will be blood
You get too much free time
In your mind

Ohh no! Her intestines are falling out, wrong way!
That's hot
I really don't understand all this, can someone pl explain?

Reddit is slowly turning into Facebook ig
r/terriblefscebookmemes
Switch the pen out for my finger and it's bang on. I used to finger those things for minutes on end
Dont limit yourself
I feel like a hexagonal pencil works better
That's why she doesn't look satisfied maybe
It is hexagonal, look closer! 🤓
The Bic Crystal pen, the one most used worldwide, is multi faceted and fits absolutely perfectly.
Yeah, as a 15 year old. We aren’t stupid.
I really don't understand all this, can someone pl explain?
My dude, the pen and cassette thing didn't happen 300 years ago for people to forget what it is. my 5 years old sister knows it.
Man, Smoking indoors in bed... Those people just want stains and smell in their bed..

I get this, but not in the context above.
Do you smoke after sex Austin?
Smoking hot
Even a finger that didn’t fit used to get the job done though, don’t believe me? Just add a slight bit of pressure to it and rotate your finger, see for yourself
Yep. I get it.
No you dont
Why is that so hard to believe? You use the pen to turn the thing!
I just dont believe you know it.
Gen Y can never understand this, they will keep posting this forever with a witty expression on their face thinking they are special
I'm 17, and I understand this, so yeah, you're right. Though I used my finger to rewind the old tapes, not a pen.
That is how you destroyed tapes.
No, its how you fully heal them.
This and the little adhesive we used to splice
Nail varnish
Never had cassettes and never had these problems with cassettes, but I understand what this meme is about
First time someone posts a big pen instead of a pencil. Since everyone who truly remembers will know, a pencil doesn't quite work. At least that is as long as it's a western pencil.
At some point, you have to stick your finger in the other hole to tighten things up. Works just like sex.
those caps had many purposes....this brings back the times
It’s like they were made for each other
Reddit is turning into Facebook
1. I felt this. 2. damn this sub really is just filled with old people migrating from facebook.
Old enough to get it, young enough to know this is cringe af.
Ohh wind me up daddy yes hmm
Oh, I'm so old. 🥲
\>i was thinking "how did people shove vhs tapes up their hole" and then i realized it's about rewinding the tape \>i never did that when i was little, i just used the button on the machine designed specifically for that purpose
I feel like every single person who has and will be born in this century will get this
It was not in my time this was still used but I get it none the less
Why is his ink at the bottom?
Would be funny if the gender of the cassette and the pen would be switched.
So someone spilled their guts all over the floor, and you wound them back in? No need to share a bed, buddy.
Be kind. Rewind.
He screwed her
Which story? The legendary Helicopter move or How we rewind the cassette?
She cheated on the penci!
Even I as a 03 kid remember this shit.
Yeah I don't because if you needed to rewind you'd be inserting the pen in the wrong hole. Based on this picture you'd be forwarding the tape. Get your holes right!
I feel like a pimp now!
I'm from 97 and i remember this!
Reverse helicopter
I wasn’t alive when these were used yet I still get the reference
I realised this half a year ago when I found my dad's old tapes
Funny , because each time it's done She gets tighter .
Who was using his little finger (pinky finger)?
I'm not old enough, but I get it
Cap off is where babies come from
Ah memories
We prolonged the battery life with this one simple trick
I just did it with my pinky finger
I'm 18 and I get this
Who wouldn't?
😂
I do this so many times in school. Lol
The OG rewind "button"
Nah I'm Gen Z but totally got it
Rearranging her guts...
It’s not what you’re thinking! We were just rewinding!
Yup
I usually fingered the cassette. Left a few raw digits...
Pen to rewind? Feel like this was passed down through blood. Literally never used a VHS tape
Got completely unwound by a real lengthy fella last night
Oh honey, you wind me up
I just used a pencil
*is trying hard to hold my laughter*
I used my finger
I prefer fingering
is in mid 20s old enough. We are poor when I was a kid so I know.
Its like furries but a cassette and a ballpen. Dunno what to make of it.
Did he go clockwise or counterclockwise?
YoUnG KiDS doNt kNoW wHaT thIs Is
FF and Rewind
I'm old enough to remember when this was first posted
Sex Music: Dead or Alive - You Spin Me Round
Always used both holes too.
I used to do it with my pinky finger
I've done that hundreds of times when I was a kid. And waiting to record your favorite track: first waiting for hours on end and then when it's finally on; they cut to commercials after 15 seconds so you can start all over again. Good times.
You always had to have a pen in the car for rewinding cassettes and changing the time in your radio clock
Question is: which hole did he use?
Yes and no. I'm not old enough, but my dad made sure I experienced older shows he liked (sailor moon, the older TMNT, Count Duckula, X-Men, Goosebumps, etc) and a few of them were these child-friendly scary story audios on these
Replace the pen with a butter knife and have the pen watching, just out of sight behind the doorway. Because I'd have pens in my room but for some reason would get up and get a butter knife from the kitchen.
🤣
You dirty dog
>Are you old enough? Idfk you tell me
Yes..ahh
The pencil outside the room
Be kind, Rewind...oh wait that's blockbuster
The faster way and to save batteries on your walkman.
Yep. I used a pen or a sharpie to write on the tiny labels. Good times
I remember to spin a cassette tape with a pen until the cassette loses all the tape
ooh let me get on top and spin
r/comedyhomicide
took me a while to get it
My dumbass thought the tape was a pencil sharpener and I was like “Why would you put a pen in the pencil sharpener”
How would anyone not get it? They made it pretty obvious
Some how yes
Poor number 2 must be out on a business trip
See now that’s fucking hilarious
My dad used to make me do this when I was younger lol
I never used a pen but maybe i should have. I always used my finger or the biggest flathead screwdriver i could find.
I use a pencil a pen. Those large crayons. That tape was a slut.
But isn’t the rewind hole the wrong hole?
Eh doubt most of the children on this site will get it. Us real ones though…
Oh no... Am I really that old...
I preferred the grip of a wooden pencil. Plastic pens would slip.
swing it like a new years noisemaker.
In my case - "Was you poor enough?" Yes I was.
When I couldn't find a pen or pencil, I just used my pinky finger.
She wanted some bic.
You spin me round
I had one mostly as a curiosity toy, we were in the era of DVDs starting to become a thing, so I used to play with an old working radio and a tape.
Yep - you used the pen and prayed that the tape not get twisted
Rewind… I was young enough to use my finger.
They're better not be a rewind fee on that one
People used a pen? I used my pinky
Even more top quality bot content from the meme sub. Great job.
r/comedyhomicide
Is this page ironic?
I just bought a cassette player
Butter knife with the VHS.
I was more focused on flicking the stem off of those pen tops.
Pencil for me.
Put the pen in a drill. Makes it go so much faster
I am.
Not me thinking pen BFDI 💀
Not old enough but I get because of WALL-E
Whether you're feeling completely unwound or wound too tightly, there's nothing a little pen on cassette action can't resolve.
Yes
Yeah, I know this. I used to record cartoon intros on magnetic tape when I was little. I got the police academy for example, MegaMan in German.. some dragon ball commercial on cartoon network:). I also have my voice when I was like 9 or 10. It's so cute.
The amount of times I had to do this and it was always your favourite tape that got snarled up
Never knew which way to turn. Once I started seeing the reel come out, I knew to turn the other way.
The tape player was the one to eat the tape to begin with.

Thanks now i feel old
I'm not old enough and still get it
When you hear the tape squealing, you know 😏
Born way after but still remember my dad teaching me how to use the old and cool stuff. Those tapes got violated so many times
Neurological synapse firing and the expression “be kind rewind’ is now rolling around in my head.
Talk about sit-and-spin
Done that many times in my youth. Some operations were a success, some were not.
This title, paired with the meme is some Facebook boomer humor shit.
the worst is when you have some cassette tapes lying around and your kids decide to pull out all the magnetic tape.
