Not me but my thing that got broken. In college my friends and I played a lot of Rock Band. Like an unhealthy amount (yes, we did the Endless Setlist in both the first and second game). The guy who played drums in-game also played drums irl and he decided that he hated sitting on a normal chair to play drums so he bought a drum stool to use for playing. Worked great. However, the seat didn't physically attach to the legs. It was fine when on the ground, but if you tried to move it, you had to lift by the legs, not the seat, or it would come apart. Well, friend comes over, tries to carry the drum stool and drops the legs right into my laptop. He was super apologetic and ended up buying a new screen and replacing it (fortunately an EE major, so he actually enjoyed the challenge). However, the best part of the story is this: when I called my parents a few days later and told the story, I said something to the effect of "yeah, my laptop is broken because my friend dropped a stool on it." And my mom immediately goes "SOMEONE POOPED ON YOUR LAPTOP!?!?"
I also played a ton of Rock Band 1 and 2 back then, as did my whole family (then they lost interest, although it inspired my dad to take up playing real drums, and I bought RB3 for a different platform) - I also played the RB2 Endless Setlist, albeit by myself and on vocals because that was the only way I could sustain it at the difficulty level necessary to get the achievement - and I don't know if we had the SAME drum stool but it definitely had that same detachy problem.
i have done that exact thing with squishing an ant behind the monitor screen i have yet to dismantle it to remove the mess dead ant in the top corner is part of my life
I knocked a cup of coffee into an office editing pc several years ago- it’s was a case design where the power supply was at the top and the fan was pointing up… there was a bang, smoke, the power went off in the entire building! We had to replace the PSU and ram, but then it worked again. Coffee cost about 400 dollars and an hours lost work for the entire office… Oops.
I told the guy at the phone store that I didn't need a case because I am careful and don't have kids or pets. A couple weeks later, I come out of the bathroom holding my phone and a friendly yellow lab puts its nose directly into my hand to get the nose pats. My phone goes flying, and lands flat on the glass. I do not own a dog. And yes, this dog was a very good puppers devoid of malicious intent. But I really wish someone had told me that we were tending my sister's yellow lab, so I could have been extra careful. Had to get a second new phone. I got a protective case this time.
I love that Ian accidentally made an LED for a few seconds.

For Alex the species of ant often referred to as Feral ants are Pharaoh ants & Jeremy those species of ant will most likely be Raspberry Crazy ants.
