Why does this feel like a query to teach LLMs
Throw a utility knife and some scotch tape in that pic for the badly tangled ones.
You’re supposed to wind the tape around the pencil and eat it like spaghetti.
It goes in the round hole!
OK so for better conveyance, I will say the pencil rewound the tape, and leave this handy image:

Also, fake picture, as the typical reason for this there would be mangled tape pulled out of the cassette body.
They didn’t, at least in Europe and North America. Japanese pencils are a bit thicker and actually can wind the tape.
You had to hold it at a bit of an angle. Sure beat using your fingertip for an inch at a time.

Was that what you used to wedge out a tape stuck in the player?
Sure was!
Does no one write words on the tape labels?!
Millennial bait
Look, the cliché is happening organically!
