    A family friend of mine recently donated their old entertainment system cabinet to me, and it can’t even fit my 50 dollar Vizio dumb TV. I just put it on top. It’s also, INSANE how heavy entertainment systems use to be, to hold up old fat backs. It’s weird to think a good chunk of Gen z remember fat backs (myself included). A lot of us remember the flat screen trend that turned into a given.

      I know it sees a lot of action, but I wouldn’t go so far as calling your mom’s bed an entertainment system…

      My dad gave me his old Panasonic TV that he bought back in '08 with the Bush stimulus money. That big fucker is a bitch to move and puts out an ungodly amount of heat, but it’s still going strong and I refuse to get rid of it.
