I watched Rebecca Black and Justin Bieber videos both on the same day.

I bet your audio solution hated that.

My desktop produces an intermittent whining and buzzing sound. I just hit it a few times and it magically stops.

Sorry for the convoluted speech pattern.

I once got so mad (keep in mind I have broken several keyboards/mice) I threw my sidewinder X8 mouse at my door as hard as I could, my previous 3 mice that I did that to blew into a million pieces, but it actually held its own. I mean, it has a piece missing now, but I'm still gaming with it!

also, I have gone through 5 keyboards that I would smash so hard that the keys would just straight up fail. my sidewinder X6 keyboard has taken multiple of these deadly blows to that my other keyboards would find, well deadly (the numpad and media keys on top would fly off when I smashed those deadly blows) but it has never failed me yet! just had to find the keys after they flew away...

 

and I have gotten better at controlling my rage, I had to when I brock my 4th mouse. but my peripherals still went through a beating before I learned to control that rage, lol.

I threw my old wireless mouse at my bedroom wall about at 75mph (used to play baseball for about 5 years). The mouse literally shattered and it put a huge dent in a wooden beam and busted some drywall out.

Once I installed a GPU while my motherboard was plugged in. I knew because when it touched a plastic shroud some where it made a squealing sound and I freaked out.

On a old HP laptop of mine I came home from school 1 day finding the monitor on it to be broken,half the screen was just fucked, still dont know who did it to this day, but anyways after a while I was trying to grab some important files but as for me only being able to see half of the screen and guessing where to click I finally said fuck it hit the screen a few times as hard as I can and the screen worked perfectly after that, dont ask me how it fixed it but it did.

I tripped over the cable of one of my older laptops. The laptop proceeded to hit the ground. Screen destroyed. Not a single shit was given. Picked it back up and chucked it again.

When i was in middle school I had a msi netbook. It handled alot of abuse. Once it fell from the 2nd floor to the basement in the the space between the stairs, everything was fine including the hdd. One time i raged and smashed it against the wall and only the hinges broke. And this was a $229 laptop, really made me respect msi lol.

Usually give my haf 932 a good old love tap or two (or five...) When the large 230mm fans start making strange sounds

I had my headphones on and I swung my chair in order to reach for my drink, forgetting I had it on I accidentally tipped my computer case over because I pulled the cord. It now has a little dent.
