Today, while I was looking at YouTube shorts slop I saw this meme about a specific way of rewinding cassette tapes which went a little something like this:
Not an exact copy but you get the idea.
If the image didnβt load, the meme was about rewinding tapes with pencils.
I thought that it be a useful tip if I ever wanted to bring my cassette tapes on the go (probably never) so I tried it and I noticed that the pencil was too small and was not able to grab on to any of the teeth.
Why did they use a pencil and not a Bic Cristal pen or something similar to that?

I had this same thought once only certain pencils I have fit well enough to rewind a tape but most of the time I just use my index finger

I'm not sure how rewinding with an index finger would work if you wanted to rewind a tape but I personally prefer to do this with a pen like the one I mentioned in the blog post to save on batteries for my portable cassette player: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yk8v9Ijp1So

I quite literally just idk put my finger in the hole thing and turn it around, itβs a slow process tho and that pen technique is probably a lot easier
