Hahaha... since this is an odd topic anyway...
A few years ago me and this other kid in one of my classes blew up a cd or two. It was pretty fudging funny. Everyone turns and looks at you from the HUGE cracking/exploding noise, and sees tons of little glitter pieces of CD confetti floating all around you. It's kind of hard to pass the blame off
. It was a bit of a blow off class with a ton of people in it, so the setting was just right. I'm really not the class-clown-hungry-for-attention-kind-of-guy, but being bored as hell and then exploding a CD-R with your bare hands and seeing everyone turn around to see the aftermath is pretty damn funny . Good thing the teacher loved us .

Good thing the teacher loved us .Actually, it was a lot more than "2" lol . What I did was take a pen and make like ten or so straight lines coming out from the center of the cd, then made a couple circles concentric with the CD. I went deep enough to go through the shiny stuff in the places where I wrote, so instead of ink, it was like missing CD material, but most of it was still there. Then I was just like bending it back and forth for a while and eventually I guess I bent it too far and it exploded into a ton of pieces.
My version of Times Square on New Years lol.

.Yea its pretty fun lol. I'm not sure if they are still making CD-Rs like they used to though (this was like 2-3 years ago). I was going through craploads of burned CDs dating back 5 years ago and I noticed some of them seemed thicker than they are nowadays. Probably why they used to cost a buck a piece and now cost about ten cents. Might still work though .
