CRT TV

It’s a tv.

I was looking on Ebay Kleinanzeigen for a while to see if I could pick up an old CRT TV. It seemed not many people were selling in Berlin. Often the closest ones I could find for sale were all the way on the other side of Germany..

Once, I got really really close to buying one and having it shipped over. But I just had this feeling it was a bad idea. These old TVs definitely don’t travel too well. In order to keep it well enough preserved and not completely trashed when it arrives, it has to be extreeemely well wrapped. I didn’t particularly want a trashed TV, one that functions would probably be better.

Anyways, I was looking one day and found that a guy was literally giving away his old TV in the Neukolln area, which is pretty near to me. Sweet.

Not gonna lie it was a bit of a mission to carry back, and yeah I was that guy on the U-Bahn with a fucking massive TV. Some people were giving me weird looks as if to say what in the name of the lord are you doing with that here, so I just smiled back at them.

Finally, I made it home and switched it on. And well, you saw it above already I guess, that glorious TV static.
