Shower faucet breaks off and is no longer able to close.

Kid throws Popsicle juice into PC and flatscreen monitor everything goes black, wife has repeatedly been trying to restart it instead of putting it under sunlight or lightbulb and fan like I said. Mother board could be fried.

Wife digs out a small form factor PC that had a lot of stuff on the hard drive I wanted to move, been meaning to. She said it started fine but she kept restarting it to try to get the wireless adapter working and the hard drive DIED and is now clicking.

When I came home she was trying to disassemble my external 2 TB drive to stick another one in the case, I stopped her extremely pissed and tired.

You gotta be fucking kidding me, and to top it off within the last week an android tablet has been destroyed by cracking the touch screen AND our fridge gave out.

☹

Wait I was making a case?

We now have only on PC and thankfully I saved the external hard drive, trying to think of a hiding space.

No. I’d say definitely not.

Good luck on the hiding spot! 🙂

Aren’t you the dude whose family would pull your cables out of the router when they felt the internet was going too slow?

I’d be looking through monastery brochures by now.

Wives and kids come with warranties?

Nobody sure as hell told me.
