I was raised to respect other people's property (a.k.a. the O.P.P. Philosophy) and I have kept in line with those teachings since day one. It probably hurt me more than helped me since I keep all of my CD's, books, DVD's and collectibles in the greatest condition to the point where I make sure my CD's and DVD's are always right side up in their case.
So knowing that about my upbringing it shouldn't surprise you how shocked and awed I am to have DVD's skip that I rent from the library. It really gets my locksmith laid off to be watching an episode of LOST from season 4 and to have scenes in my favorite episode ever (The Constant) skip so badly that the audio and video cease to match up on the disc.
I took the DVD out of the player to see what was going on, and it seriously looks like the people who had this disc under their care prior to me wiped their hands with the disc after a big dinner of KFC. What's worse is that LOST is an adult show so children should be far from these DVD's, so the culprits are from the age of 13 to 4,815,162,342 (<--see what I did there?).
Shame on you who just go all willy-nilly with other people's expensive items, and good television for that matter. I can understand this sort of treatment for a complete box set to Hee-Haw, but not LOST.
