You can always shred it, but the far more entertaining way is to
stuff it in a microwave oven atop a short styrofoam cup, and nuke
it.
In less than 5 seconds it will spark and make an amazing if short
science-fiction looking shower of sparks.
The resultant "CD" is entirely crinkled and completely unreadable.
Shreding is more practical, but definitely loses in the fun department.
