Don’t forget the mandatory 5 minutes fiddling with the thing before the one kid with half a brain figures out how to switch inputs.
Oh, wait, we gotta rewind it…
Every once in awhile we would get a laserdisc! Felt like a rich kid even though it was public school when that shit came out.
This still happens nearly every week in Sunday school.
It was either Bill Nye or Schoolhouse Rock playing.
I had a high school English teacher who really really sucked, except when she didn’t feel like teaching and would show us TOS Star Trek episodes.
I always loved a good Eye Witness day. The opening still kicks ass.
Oh man I forgot about them! One of these days I’m going to buy a dvd go through them all.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
I can’t quite make it out through the cataracts. What tf is it? Speak up! Grabs ear trumpet
Fuck yeah!
If it was educational and bad = take notes from the first 5-10 minutes and sleep for the rest
If it was educational and good = BILL BILL BILL BILL BILL BILL
If it was a movie = sleep
If it was a movie = sleep
Depends. My middle school had classrooms with accordion dividers which could open up and turn three classrooms into one big one and once, they brought in three of those TVs and had them synced up to show us Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure.
You should have seen an acquaintance i knew whose class watched the old Romeo and Julliet movie with a topless scene. lets just say the rewind and pause functions were used.
Oh shit i hope we’re watching either a goofy movie or one of the Smithsonian Discover videos!
Your school gets the nice TVs, huh?
“The Story of English” groan
Funny, I never watched that in school, but I did watch it on YouTube a few years ago and I thought it was really interesting.
But then I’m the sort of person who looks up etymology of words I find unusual.
Was such a great idea. Put the heavy television in a high place and make the much-lighter base roll around. Wcgw?
i think I once saw one of those non flat cathod ray tubes TVs in my grandma’s house when I was a child.
Reddit may have a point in requiring users to be at least 13 to join…
Also, this isn’t Reddit.
I’m 19… today’s 13yos where born in 2010.
You just gave me flashbacks to watching the film “Threads” on one of these setups in school. Fun times.
Teacher: “I am going to traumatise the little fucks today”
I remember my teacher showing us All Summer in a Day on this bitch. I’m pretty sure that movie kickstarted my lifelong crippling depression. Other than that we mostly just watched Selena 62736 times.
