which is better? the hammer or a shotgun?

[wyouser]

Which is the surest way to give one of these miserable pc's an attitude adjustment?? Its only Wednesday and Im ready to rearrange every electronic component in its beady little circuit system

[Mad Dawg Wiccan]

Shotguns are more fun, but hammers have less chance of attracting the authorities.

[Chocolate Lover]

I usually start by kicking it. Just make sure you kick it from the side and don't hit it straight on with your toes, that hurts.

Having a meltdown?

Take it outside with some lighter fluid and match.

[wyouser]

there are days.........this thing eats one more transaction today and..............

[Apple]

Anyone else getting a visual of the "fax machine in the field" scene from "Office Space"?

[DebMD (banned)]

Tell the way you chose.

[Chocolate Lover]

You know we are Apple ;D

Deb, not everyone already has the fire department at their house in case something goes wrong.

I think it's really politically incorrect for you to be talking about violence. We need to all be sensitive to the needs of others.

[wyouser]

Im really very sensitive to the needs of others..I just have less than ZERO tolerance for machinery or equipment that malfunctions.........OR GETS SUPER SUPER SLOW

[Bluerobin]

I pick the sucker up and toss it out the door. Then for good measure, I take the sledge hammer to it. Living in the city, I have learned NOT to use the shotgun!

[ZaireinHD]

err.. hammer!
this way surrounding electronics will not get caught in the cross-fire!

[wyouser]

Where is Seargant Snorkel when you need him (You remember Beetle Bailey) His great one liners ......@#%%$***&!$## (I just dont have the touch)

[busymom]

I remember seeing on the internet a soldier in Iraq or Afghanistan taking a machine gun to a computer part that broke down, and the 1-800 number back in the states wouldn't help him. I was impressed with the distance he set it at--he still hit his target! (Lotsa holes!)

We are being sensitive.


Wyouser needs information, and we are sensitive enough to provide it. I can think of worse ways to put recalcitrant electronics out of their puny little existence:

Drown them

Let small children play with them

Use them as camping tent tie-downs

Let a small child play with it and it'll be up and running in no time ;D

[Wisconsin Beth]

lol.

I always thought we should raffle off the chance to beat the crap out a computer, as a fundraiser/morale booster at work. An older model, obviously. But give the winner safety goggles and long pants/sleeves, etc. and let them have at it.

[gambler]

drive over it they make a very,very, satisfying crackling sound just like crushing a pecan shell I know this from first hand experience ;D

[Opti]

I think the hammer is safer if you really have given up on the computer working again.

[Chocolate Lover]

Chainsaw?? ;D

[Regie]

Just remember safety first. Wear your goggles and gloves.

[Apple]

I could hook it up to some 480 for you and we could watch it explode A nice electrical flash and fire is always exciting!

[Chocolate Lover]

That sounds like lots of fun too apple, so many options.....

[wyouser]

thinking about kids...I have a friend (several years ago) whose 4 year old used the cd/dvd tray as a chocolate chip cookie holder.....PC's dont respond well to melted chocolate...Id forgotten about that

[Chocolate Lover]

But I bet the cookie was nice and warm ;D

[Peace Of Mind]

I've threatened to throw my laptop in the pond a few times. But I'm too cheap to buy another one.

[wyouser]

It was just time to get up and yell something....since monday you could read Tolstoys entire WAR And PEACE waiting for a screen to change
