Redbox and netflix dominated the market.

Blockbuster and Hollywood video did not stand a chance.

Though, there was nothing like heading over to Blockbuster on a Friday night and renting a horror movie when you were 13 years old.

Has any other major corporation ever been killed so quickly?

I remember there were tons of small book stores with character around when I was a kid. Now it's just Barnes & Fuckin Noble.

I love to have a Starbucks Coffee and eye the fat girls at the book store.

Every time I go to the Redbox I get behind 10 fatties that take forever browsing on the machine instead of just having their order ready from online.  ;D

I always get stuck behind some ass who is taking forever. After a few minutes, I start to "sigh" and yawn. Its a hint to them to hurry the hell up!

I lived close to a Borders I would go to all the time. Then they went under. Now I live near a Barnes and noble and they are nice too. I enjoy just getting a coffee and browsing and using the coupons they email me to get a book.

Used book stores are dying too. Thankfully there is this awesome one I enjoy going to. The owner does a great job on selecting good books and not just any crap that walks thru the door.

Id like to sit next to Queen Vissy, while drinking a latte, holding hands and reading a book at B and N.

This is how you snag the girls. Whip out that debit card, rent a few movies, turn to them and say, "Want popcorn with the movie?"

Roger

I'd be more than happy to rent some VHS from your store if i could use Bitcoin.

And only if the walls of this store were covered with Vissy-esque posters of Peace, preferrably in a Penguin-hat.
