Do you/Have you, abused your computer?

[BigJay]

You lot need to chill-out.
Its a box, with some wires and other boxes inside of it, and some wires and otherboxes, outside of it......and one looks like a television.
Just think,it can't feel pain, but you do.Your fist, your head, your foot etc, and your WALLET!

If you dont treat a PC right, it will just give you more grief. PC's have feelings too, you know. I talk to mine, and praise it sometimes.

Mine is called: Andromeda; Psion; Perseus and Shiny Beast.

They are all machines.

And all machines need looking after to give their best.

And as I never seem to use Perseus any more, he's up for sale.

Bye bye Perseus, soon you will have a new master. they may be cruel or kind to you but I know, I just know, you'll still decide to crash towards the end of that 3000 word document they haven't saved

I always think of computers as male, dunno why.

In much the same way as me cars are always girls. Odd, eh?

Though Shiny Beast is a tad androgynous

[NR117]

I am amazed that seemingly intelligent people would actually abuse a computer!

 

[TriplexDread]

OMFG after all the money ive spent on this baby, u are kidding RIGHT?

 

[Cache-man]

I have been known to kick speakers around the room and hurl verbal abuse at my computer, and also bang/kick my desk, although mainly after getting really engrossed in computer games and getting killed off after a difficult section or playing for a long time.

Generally, I treat my computer rather nicely, but it can be stubborn and frustrating sometimes.

 

[CSUnited14]

You know what makes me mad is when i install something internally or software and it dont work or i zapp something in the process i get p****d and my comp doesnt have a face on it after my last battle my new babbys gonna get wax on it every week though.

 

[Raje]

Hmmm, physical violence, well not to my computer no, I do leave it on but i put it on standby ( Yes I know the risks and its not as good as just turning it off -Power Surge ....blah blah blah I don't Care) But my older monitor on the other hand got slapped around its last month or two of existance, bad wiring inside made it keep shutting off, one good smack and , "BONG" the screen would come back. Its gone now, and I have a 21" to replace it (I didn't have the money for an lcd so its huge and takes up my whole desk --- but hey my keyboard and mouse have thier own shelf )

 

[CSUnited14]

ahh just through water on it actually make it salt water

 

[Cache-man]

Why/how did you throw salt water on it?

 

[CSUnited14]

im just kidding lol i would never do that but i would smack my old one around for freezing on me but my new oneeeee i would even look at it wrong lol

Not strictly my PC, but I have been known to smash rodents against the wall on more than one occasion. I think it was because i could never be bothered to clean out my ball mouse and I used to get really frustrated in the middle of an FPS if the mouse stuck and i dies or missed the target. Anyway, optical mice have solved that problem and now i am most often very calm and collected (probably 'cos I spend so much on my PC, I can't bring myself to damage it out of anger)

 

[TriplexDread]

LMAO @ Rodent

U not tryed the MX1000 Laser mouse yet then?

20 times more accurate than the optical.
