A slang used to express a reversal of fortunes or a change of circumstance. “How the turntables” is a comical variation of “how the tables have turned” or “the tables have turned,”. It originates in the American version of The Office said by Michael Scott.

Orphan Turntable

A vinyl record player originally sold with an integrated Hi-Fi system, that has since become separated from said system and is thus unusable due to proprietary connectors and the lack of an audio amplifier.

Person A: “I brought this record player from a thrift store, but when I tried to use it I noticed it only has weird connectors I’ve never seen before.”
Person B: “That’s an orphan turntable. Don’t waste any more time or money getting it to work.”
