[QUOTE=Pepsi-cola;43947274]The real crime is that she rented a VHS in 2005.[/QUOTE]
But VHS was still normal in 2005?
reminds me of some old book I had in my backpack since 7th grade "time stops for no mouse"
I got all the way to the end of highschool when my councilor tells me I can't graduate till I fucking pay for the book that I haven't heard anything about since I was in 7th grade at a different school. I also wasn't allowed to go to prom until I paid off the damn book. I can just imagine the book cover with that little mouse on it.. taunting me
I guess time stops for no mouse; and I paid the $47 late fee I had
I threw my school's math book into an empty plastic pipe in the backyard in 2003
[QUOTE=Paramud;43952432]I once forgot to turn in a math book at the end of high school and it's been haunting me ever since. I'm honestly terrified that I'll be denied for a loan every time because of a 10 dollar charge from 2005.[/QUOTE]
I forgot to return my maths book and they refused to let me sign out of high school until it was returned.
I got 4-5 books that are owned by my school at my place, and I graduated 2 years ago. And I also 2 books from the library that I never turned in. You people must have some really annoying systems. :/
My parents actually bought a bunch of games from a small blockbuster or something that was closing, and that's how my first games ever were Spyro and Ape Escape.
Fuck Video Ezy though. Modern places usually ask for full name and password, or have you scan a card. Years back Video Ezy just did it off first name, that's it. Not even last name. As you can see this wouldn't work well. Some bloke with the same first name as my dad didn't return a pile of movies for a few months, dad was slapped with a few hundred dollars on a bill. Even though they worked it out and went 'OH SHIT. We're not meant to be charging YOU, it was that other guy!' they still wanted my dad to pay for the other guy's late returns / possibly never returned films. So he told them to fuck off and we've never gone back to Video Ezy.

Oh right, I still have a science textbook from primary school. I felt kinda guilty about it, but they never chased me up about it, and I remembered that I never paid for it. Just kinda took it from the library and kept it. It used to support my couch where one of the feet were missing :v:
Reminds me of the time when I returned a rented Van Helsing only to have Blockbuster deny that I actually ever returned it. I didn't even know until a month later when they started calling me once a week to harass me into returning it. It got to the point where I'd have to argue with the people working there for a couple of minutes each time just to rent things, and even then they'd try and stick me for the late fee.
A couple of months later they called me up and told me the fee was waived because they found the disc, covered in dust in the gap between the counter and the wall. Idiots.
Of the two libraries that I have cards for, one of them has a total of $500 in late fees, and the other one is currently at around $50 or so because I returned a DVD copy of Men In Black without the DVD in it :v:

Update: I just looked in the pipe for the first time in ~7 years, and the book is somehow still intact, despite the pipe being filled with water now
