That does it!
Dear CD/Cassette Player,
You have been a faithful companion for these many years. I understand that you were not exceptional when I got you, and that I cobbled you together from two different machines, and that as a result you have never played CDs all that well.
That being said, I think it's time for us to part company. Not only do you skip and shut down every time one of the cats moves in the place and whenever I walk by, now you refuse to "read" half of my CDs (including my favourite Dire Straights CD), you eat all my tapes by stretching the ribbon beyond repair, and you have taken to skipping during songs randomly even when the CD is not visibly damaged. This is unacceptable.
You have been a steadfast but not especially reliable companion. I thank you for your many years of service, and I hope that, wherever you find yourself next, you will be rewarded accordingly.
Love,
Me
P.S. Does anyone know where I might get rid of my old CD player? I don't want to toss it out, as I'm sure the speakers are still good, and the rest can probably mostly be stripped for parts or something. I'm going to be getting rid of it probably next month, as this month has been an expensive one for various reasons, and get a new one then.
