Sir, your urge to buy, buy, buy must be supressed! You must learn to enjoy and make do with what you have, rather than yearning for satisfaction that will never be met through such rampant consumerism. 

Turntables may have stepped out of the spotlight, much like a musician opting to showcase his wares at a county fair, but that does not justify you kicking them to the curb! Much as you now lament the Kenwood you tossed into a dumpster, you will soon grieve over your missed opportunities to witness Diamond Dave with a jumbo ear of hot buttered corn in hand.

Stop living for the moment, friend. A platinum disc in some A&M record official's office is not going to resurrect the NFU.
