Envelopes, the ultimate encryption. Just break the adhesive on the back and use a similar adhesive to reclose it. Most people don't pay attention to things, you could probably just use a gluestick lol

The lick-able envelopes can be opened and resealed with the steam from a kettle.

Funny joke… but you do happen to be talking to a tea drinker who lives in the US… we have three kettles…

Send more letters. On fancy heavy parchment. With illuminated letters on the first line, and your signature at the end in obnoxiously large cursive preceded by seven titles of escalating pretentiousness.

It's the only way to really get their attention.

This is what you had to do back in the day if you were too poor to afford a CD-ROM drive for your PC.

Yeah, you can listen to CDs if you put them in an audio CD player but is just awful noise

Can somebody tell me where the battlestar Galactica is parked? I just hope I get there in time.

Nahh mate. Woosh is a common phrase that is used when somebody missed the joke and took a joke seriously. ❤️

Just like in this post. Its obvious that they acutally use them as mirrors. And you pointing that out makes it seem you missed the joke. Hence why i commented woosh. As this is something you say in this situation.

It comes from the subreddit r/woosh

As in - "woosh, that was the sound of the joke that just flew over your head" - to point the poster to the fact that they missed the joke in the post or took a joke for a serious post

It's obvious if you used a CD. CDs are becoming increasingly obsolete and there's middle schoolers that never had to interact with a cd

Nah, we (hopefully) all know, which is why the meme is funny.

Yeah someone else already made that joke and now I'm reminding them of their chronic back pain

Actually if you have some experience at burning CDs you can tell if the data burned is music or images or video. This is very practical! Unfortunately contrary to what some people might claim, it's impossible to tell how much data has been written or if a writing session is closed or not. Now you have a full picture.

Oh yeah you can see the different textures on a CD that has written data, but it's likely they're using them as mirrors and I think that's clever

It's impossible to use CDs as mirrors. This is due to bright lasers used for burning. Wait – actually it can be done, but only with pressed CDs, not CD-Rs.

Does the laser burn your eyes 🤣. Im recalling my experience with CDs from decades ago (both from CDs from the era now and me interacting with CDs back then)

It's possible that the wavelength used to burn it was invisible to your eyes, but that's not universally the case. Please be careful when handling CDs.
