schrodinger's vinyl

A vinyl record that has remained unopened or unplayed for an extended period, leaving its actual condition unknown. The record could be pristine, warped, scratched, or otherwise damaged, but the owner avoids opening it out of fear of discovering its true state—preferring to exist in blissful ignorance.
I still haven’t checked out that rare LP I bought in 2015—total schrodinger's vinyl situation over here.

Every collector has at least one schrodinger's vinyl on their shelf, too scared to find out if it survived years in the attic.

That sealed album is schrodinger’s vinyl; it’s both mint and ruined until you crack it open.

scratch the vinyl

When a guy tries to stick it in a girls ass, but she springs out of the bed and turns and gives him the stink eye. Scratching the vinyl is the sound that goes through the guys head, as when a record stops abruptly.
Everything was going great with Yolanda until i had to go scratch the vinyl. Now, I have no chance at hitting that again.

Vinyl philosophy

Those urban/college dudes who read Aristotle and Socrates once and now think they are philosophical geniuses and they probably listen to the Beatles and other artists only on vinyl
