I liked mixtapes because it was so fun to decorate all the j-cards.
Do the cassettes have to be from exes? I have nice ones that I traded with an Internet that were thematic and really nicely put together. We'd have a theme, and do proper artwork, and go to town.

Why keep them? Why keep them?? That's like asking why anyone would keep a love letter. That's basically what they are, right — audio love letters using other people's words. Love the site by the way! I was listening through it last week, really looking forward to what pops up next
