This sly creature confuses it’s prey by marking the non-lethal slots as the broken ones,thus providing sustenance when the humans feed the tapes and DVDs into their maws. Here we see a mated pair who work off each other to get fed.”

    Geez, Hal is getting really finicky in his old age.

  2. slapchop says:

    The bad news: These devices have worn out their electronic usefullness.
    The good news: They can be used to prop up a hurricane shutter…(see below)

  3. Starlight says:

    Its important to preserve valuable antiques like these!

    Must’ve been a good day at the recycling center. Good kludge.

  5. kc/cc says:

    I’m not going to enjoy watching TV here. Instead I’m going to watch these guys to see what they do next.

  6. spamme says:

    tip o fthe day:
    NEVER buy combos

    If full disclosure laws were enforced at yard sales…

  9. stevo says:

    I wonder if the TV’s are labeled similarly.

  10. Jompe71 says:

    Those “instructions” are not enough! Obviously there is a non hi-tech person in dá house. Further info is obviously required like:

    -”Don’t put in washing-machine”
    -”No, beta-max is not an option”
    -”Yes, I eat tapes, but it’s virtually spoken, not literally!”

  11. Tyler says:

    Not Pictured: The kludged together combo Laserdisk/Betamax machine… that still doesn’t have any movies available for either

    • Skyfire says:

      You’d be surprised what’s on laserdisc. I picked up all four Alien movies, plus a player, for about half what the DVD collection cost.

  12. Lynz Catastrophe says:

    Buy a new one, if you cannot afford a new one then buy a second hand one, i find good deals at thrift stores (and yet nothing for parties….)

  13. Cayenne says:

    What we don’t see are their two cars that are taped together. One car does not have reverse and the other does not have forward drive. But together…

  14. bobdobbs says:

    This is from the person who said “Combo Players are going to change everything man, thats why I bought one for every TV in my house.” Of course now they only have Combo Players for every OTHER TV.

  15. bobdobbs says:

    If they had kids the top message should be “Feed Me” to deal with possible sandwich sharing.

  16. Dogmeat says:

    Rounding out the entertainment center is the television that is labeled “NO SOUND! Do not listen!” and the receiver labeled “NO PICTURE!”

  17. bobdobbs says:

    The “No DVD” message is too open. What about Blu-Ray? HD DVD? CDs. They all need to be addressed.

    • The Cat says:

      Wii discs would fit in there! I bet I’ve got some crackers that would slide in nicely as well.

      • kc/cc says:

        At my house, the broken VCR could hold some matchbox cars and maybe half a peanut butter sandwich. Or any very important smallish item that’s been missing a while. Car keys, ATM card… actually, I think I’ve just solved a mystery. Aha!

  18. bobdobbs says:

    This is in the home of the guy from Momento who can’t create new long term memories.

  19. Scott says:

    Something tells me that the all-in-two entertainment system is not the future of home theater

  20. hannah says:

    But the poor thing is starving !!

  21. Papa says:

    The ultimate Hi-tech Redneck add-on! Perfectly goes with the working TV on top of the non-working TV!

  22. Second Mouse says:

    I hope they do not have a breast-milking pump at their house.

  23. Truthiness says:

    The perfect sobriety test.

  24. Chris says:

    That is full on bachelor basement entertainment from the late 90s. I’m willing to guess there is also a broken tape deck that serves as an amp and separate units for AM and FM radio and there must be speakers with duct tape on them somewhere in that basement.

    • kc/cc says:

      They sit on ripped-up bean bag chairs repaired with duct tape, and all their drinking glasses are from giveaways at the liquor store. Plus, they keep their clothes in a laundry basket and/ cardboard box. Oh, wait, I kind of still do that laundry basket one. Sentimental, I guess.

  25. stanman13 says:

    What took much longer was the labelling of all the DVD’s and tapes with the appropriate “DO NOT PUT IN DVD SLOT” and “DO NOT PUT IN TAPE DECK” signs.

  26. kc/cc says:

    Masking tape? That’s ridiculous– how do you expect this to LAST?

  27. Eric says:

    Broken+BrokenFixed

  28. Tim says:

    I’m suddenly reminded of the C.O.P.S.

  29. dfazman says:

    C-c-c-COMBO Breaker!

  30. Mr Bill says:

    Wonder Twin powers, activate!

  31. Wolfen says:

    Gotta love media players on strike.

  32. Noodlemeister says:

    OMG, but I’ve got the same setup at home! A DVD/VHS player that only plays VHS, and a DVD/DVD player that only plays DVDs, AND that stupid TV converter box, all daisy-chained together!

  33. Doc Brown says:

    Whats a DVD? Didnt they die off with the TRexes. WTF is a Tape?

  34. dunno2 says:

    actually, it’s a carnivorous VCR. VHS is the tape that goes in it

  35. Hotaru-chan says:

    HOM NOM NOM.
    The solution here is to stick the DVDs in the VCR slot and find a way, perhaps via garbage compactor, to wedge the video cassette in the DVD slot.
