I don't think there's a Song Title Challenge going on right now, but if there were, this would be for it...

They'll warp and they won't be good for anyone ... ...

Well I had this record that I really did like
It was the last one they had in the store
I left it laying on the car back seat
And now it just won't play no more"

Aside: this is an old record, nothing to cry over. I intentionally lefy it in the back wondow of my car during a recent hot day.
Blimey....the last time I saw something like this would have been in the mid 80's when I left a record under the drivers seat of my 1971 Mini...though it would be alright, was a bit floppy instead. Since then I've taken all due care!
oh no, oh on, I'm crying, that is one of the worst crimes I can imagine!!!!!!!! (but I have some old memories from the 80's too, I grew up pretty quickly after that!)
@amyk@dutchothotmailcom@graemestevens@ludwigsdiana@koalagardens@kvphoto@helenhall Thanks all!! Yes, I did this on purpose. A while back, I received a box of free records, probably 50-75. A few gems, mostly not. This was in the throw-away stack, a late 50;s polka record. I was trying to think of creative things to do, and a warp experiment ended up on my list. that massive warp represents 1 day in my car's back window, on a day with temperatures in the high 90's. I expected more of a ripple type of impact, but ended up with 1 massive warp. The record, of course, is now unplayable.
