    Going to the video rental store was hella fun. My partner and I were going to a local Family Video up until it closed a bit after the start of COVID.

    It’s conceptually just like listening to music on vinyl; the ordeal, the inconvenience of it makes it special… even fun. It turns something that has become so simple that it’s boring (i.e. picking out a movie) and it makes that thing into an event.
