I'm almost certain I've moved a CRT or two that were heavier than that.

80s/90s kids remember being able to throw their controllers at the TV without fear. (Console games on a console tv to console the cold war anxiety)

Fuck, I never would think to throw my controller at the screen!

I also don't ever throw my controllers in general. Why would I want to break them? Lol.

Things made in the 80s never broke.
