Blockbuster refused to take my dvd back because there was blood on it?

29 Comments

So there was an incident involving a tomahawk and a finger. Big deal, just another Friday night. Well, some blood got on the dvd case I had sitting there. I take it back to Blockbuster the next day and they asked what it was and I told them....then they told me to get out and take the damn movie with me!!

OK, whatever. It was one of those paper mailing cases, not a hard plastic case. The case I'm talking about gets thrown out anyway, as it's only used to mail the rentals to me, it's not used ever again. What the hell is the big deal?? It wasn't a lot of blood either. I can't just throw the case out either because it has a bar code on it they have to scan, so I'm screwed!!

Well I'm pissed because the movie wasn't THAT good and I don't want to have to pay for it over a little bit of blood.

Now that the blood has aged a bit, it quite closely resembles chocolate sauce. I think I will go back there tomorrow and if they ask I'm just going to say it's chocolate sauce from last night's sexual encounter. No, not really, that was a joke. I'll just say it dripped off of my ice cream cone. Hopefully the same guy isn't in there again, and I really hope he isn't a member of this site. I shouldn't have told them the truth in the first place but in my defense I was extremely high at the time. Damn truth serum. Tranq'd off my ass.

Go back, try saying it's chocolate sauce. 65
Say it's poop. (ha ha, how will THAT help matters?) 22
Just never go back there again and pay for the stupid movie. 18
Poop in the after-hours drop box. 96
Stage an Occupy Blockbuster protest,demand free snacks. 13
I have a better idea, I'll tell you in a comment!! 7
Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

      Yeah they do like Netflix with dvd's by mail, and there are some stores still out there. I live in a small town area so it's still a perfectly profitable business. I only go in thee to exchange the dvd's I get by mail, because when i take them to the store I can exchange it for any movie for free, so it makes more sense for me to do that than to wait and waste all that time doing it by mail. That's one thing that sucks about Blockbuster's service, their mailing time is agonizingly slow. When I had Netflix it was like 1 or 2 days and I had my movies, Blockbuster is like a week or more sometimes. Netflix turned me off though, due to the ever more limited availability of dvd's. I don't stream, sorry.

        I see. The last two blockbusters in my general vicinity are long gone. All the video stores are gone, except the porn places, of course. Phew! There's friggin Redboxes everywhere now.

          I'm afraid of Redbox....like a legit phobia. They make me think of the machines taking over the world. So innocent looking, then it steals your credit card, walks off on it's robot legs and goes and buys guns with your stolen credit card info. It's all downhill from there. They meet up downtown and sweep the streets of their human adversaries. The Army will be too busy in Iran to help. They're timing it perfectly. They're lying in wait. They know when you're vulnerable becuse they know when you're sitting there innocently watching a dvd, or they can estimate when you'll be coming by to return the dvd so they'll just get you then. They will crush the Transformers like Matchbox cars. My only hope is that I'm the John Connor of the era and that I am the only hope for the humans. Because I already have the jump on the Redbox killing machines, you know, I know what's going on. Now I just have to watch out for time traveling assassins.

    Can I combine two answers? Take just the disk back and say you lost the case. (the bar-code is on the inside ring of the top of the disk in sticker or printed form)

    Once you have returned the disk, poop in the drop box, just to make yourself feel better! Make sure its a Hormel chili poop though!

    Btw, you can't say no big deal to a tomahawk and a finger leading to a bloody movie case. What in the hell were you up to?! lolz Sounds like it might be a good story.

      Tomahawk, finger, coffee table, cover came flying off of a fan from a sad attempt to karate kick it, chest got whipped real proper by fan blades on high speed. It all started when I ate a salad one night. No, wait, it was whiskey, not salad. Not really much of a story honestly, shit happens when you're stupid and have magical drunken violent movie fantasy talents such as expert axe marksmanship and karate kicks. I had just bought the tomahawk too, it's freakin' sweet, it's like the best one money can buy so of course I had to test it's abilities against a multitude of household surfaces, the finger was unintentional but now that I know it hurts pretty bad I might not do it again. MIGHT, I can't promise. Sometimes John Jameson tells me to do things, and I can't say no to Mr Jameson.

      I think my finger is a little infected, it's looking better though. Yesterday it was so swollen that I thought it it might fall the fuck off. I think I'm OK though. I soak a bandage in Everclear and wrap it up, NOTHING can live through a dousing of Everclear. Stings a bit, but it's a hell of a lot more economical than Bactine, Bactine is for pansies. Plus the alcohol absorbs through the open wound directly into the tissues and bloodstream so you get a mild bonus buzz (it's true, it's true!!)!! It didn't require stitches, I kind of wish it did because I own several suture and surgery kits and a skin stapler to save on hospital costs and the whole 'police' bullshit that goes on whenever you show up drunk and bleeding at a hospital.

    if there isn't a barcode on the disc you can go in there with an almost eaten chocolate ice cream cone and give it to them. Maybe you could spill the chocolate over the blood stain to disguise it...They'll think you're disgusting but hey? hahaha I thought they had a drop box? I would just cut the barcode off and taped it to the cd and put it in the slot.

    You forget that this is the age of blood diseases. In years past, blood wasn't a big deal but then in the 80's Aids struck. Everyone became paranoid about it and there was extreme stigma and hatred towards anyone that had it. Now days, people don't want to take the risk. It's normal that he refused to except the package, but it's not normal of you to want to take the bloody package back. You may know what diseases you do or don't have, but they don't. They have no clue and they don't want to risk anything. Just say that you lost the paper or call the store manager and explain the situation to him.

      It's called 'Shrooms', it's a horror movie. It's not that it was BAD (I love horror movies, even not so good ones) I just don't see why I have to pay for it because there was blood on the paper case. Fuck that.

      Here, you can read about it, I'm no good at describing movies.

      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrooms_(film)

      These fuckers already assraped me once when they forced me to buy Ferris Bueller's Day Off at a highly inflated price because of some other incident. Never mind that though, I'm not even going there. That movie sells for like $5 at Wal Mart, these turds charged me like $19.99 for it.

    I don't know why I didn't think of this before but Jesus Christ, I could just drop it in the drop box and run. They'd have to take it. If they try to say anything I'll just say it must have got dirty in the drop box...maybe some ASSHOLE took a dump in there. Wasn't me!!

      One guy who works there wears pajama pants and you can totally see the outline of his junk. His shirt doesn't cover far enough because he has a bit of a gut. It's so gross.

      I found it better to pay the $15 a month for unlimited dvd's and just copy them. No threat of viruses and no crap downloads. Takes like 10 min to rip a dvd. So for the purchase price of 1 dvd a month I actually end up owning more like 10-12 at least. Not bad. I use xilisoft. Got it for free, have the keygen, and have been using it for years now. Once in a while it won't copy a dvd, like it will never copy Disney dvd's because they have a lot of extra security but it works 99% of the time otherwise.

          Ehh, I'm leery of it still and I'm sort of inept at it too, I have tried, mostly to get bootlegs before they're released. It's just not something I care to do, or am really good at, honestly. What I did was just stopped watching any movies for like 3 months to 'save up' new movies (new to me), so it all worked out, now I'm not so anxious to get dvd's before they're released like I used to be. I used to have a friend who did bootlegs and would give me shitloads of them, it's OK but a lot of them were not the best quality so if it's a movie I really want to see then it ruins it for me.

            I can totally understand you. Well its your life. I would also rent movies but here in Egypt its too expensive so i have to download everything... Which is bad because in Egypt I only have max. 55 KB per second download speed.
