Default Display Funny and Horror stories

A few months ago, I was playing a game created by akella software works called Swashbucklers Blue vs. Grey. I has a horrible design on how to save a game so I didn't do it that often. In fact, I beat half the game without saving, then it glitched... needless to say, I was pissed, but thats not what was the expensive part. I was so mad, I punched the screen in and actually cracked the CRT monitor. I also broke my middle finger because I hit it wrong. I just barely got the cast off. srry, no pictures, didn't think of it at the time.



So, what are your stories

I used to punch my monitor all the time due to anger, it's got bruises now.

I was playing some freaking game on the internet(my friend gave me the link), yeah the same "move your cursor to the end of the tunnel without touching the walls game". I finished two levels, i was playing the third one, i moved the cursor slow and steady, i hit one of the walls and expected a "GAME OVER" or something, but i never knew i'd see Linda Blair in her teens!...not sexy, but dirty.
