Historic �Blockbuster� Store Offers Glimpse Of How Movies Were Rented In The Past
Remember back in the day when you used to have to go to Blockbuster or your local porn in the back/regular video store up front place to rent movies? It was a real drag because it meant actual physical exertion-walking to your car, driving the car, walking from the car to the store and walking around the store in your movie search. And you had to actually exchange words with the stoned kid working there. All that hassle, when all the while you just wanted to sit on your ass, eat popcorn and watch the moving pictures tell a fictional story.
It’s amazing that it wasn’t that long ago that we had to endure such pains just to rent a movie-it’s like it was a freakin’ errand! Especially since nobody came and picked it up from our homes when we were finished with it. Bastards! Anyways, The Onion looks back on these primitive times.
