dont know if i worded it right,but like i mean stuff that has happened to you that gets you pissed off while playing here are some of mine:

-was playing spyro way back like 8 years ago ony my PS1 on the last boss when my sister decides to run acros my path,she trips on my controller cable and my PS1 came crashing down,TV almost fell,and the disc came out and rolled away.i started screaming like hell,lol.then i reconnected it and......corrupt memory card >=[

- me and a friend were outside on the stoop about to play GBC,then he tells his little brother to come down with his GBC....instead,the 5 year old decides to throw it out the 3rd floor window,it hit the fence,then crashed into the ground.my friend looked up at his brother with a murderous face,lol.somehow his GBC and pokemon red were still working =]

-me and 4 friends went to my friends house to play some LAN GeOW2,while trying to find a seat,my friend bumps into the table where his wii and 360 are,the wii falls over,lands on the 360,.....RROD....needless to say,there was alot of ROFL before we ran out of his house

-with the same friend dat got his GBC thrown out the window,we were playin PS2 in his house,then his mom tells his lil bro to get something for her,he trips across the PS2 controller cord,the PS2 falls out of its shelf,lands on the floor and the disc tray broke off

-took my DS to school one day,put it in my pocket,started playing tag.Fat girl comes across my path in the school yard,i go flying,my DS flies out my pocket and lands like 10 feet away.i was safe,my DS was scratched up,but in safe working condition =]

-was playing twilight princess on my wii at like 4 in the morning,fighting "zelda possesed",then my dad wakes up and punches the wall like "WTF ARE YOU DOING UP?!" my wii froze......i just went back to sleep,lol,i was scared

-went to a friends house to play xbox(a different guy),and while playing GeOW2,i threw a loud fart,he was like "imagine i get the RROD because of your fart,u would never come to my house again" it didnt happen,but would've been pretty funny if it had,lol

-It takes my cousin 3 weeks to finally set up FFXI online on his PS2. With in the first week of him playing it... my brother trips over the Keyboard chord and knocks the PS2 down. On top of that, my cousin had a drink on top of his PS2 at the time and of course you guys can figure out what happens next.

-My brother fell asleep... on the floor which was wierd. But he fell asleep right next to my 360 while I'm playing. While waking up he swung his arm and knocked over my 360 from the standing position. I didn't here any scratching noises and the game was still fine. But he decides to put it back to the standing position and I heard the most horrible noise. The game worked half way but I only had to pay $5 to get the scratch fixed.

-My cousin had a slim PS2 and a fat one. I was told that the Fat one doesn't work anymore and that Guitar hero was stuck in the fat one. So I decided to take it apart to get the game out. But not in the way that you could put it back together anyways. Of course my other cousin comes home and informs me that it wasn't broke... the power chord was short so they had no way of turning it on. OOOOPS.

None funnily enough, my friend broke the spring in his GH3 whammy bar about a day after having it though. His 1 and 2 guitars both had broken springs in the whammy bars and I said "Are you happy now you can finally whammy properly!" And he went "Yeah!" and whammied really hard then there was a snapping noise and it broke. Not a console accident but it was still pretty funny.

There was my older brother and a friend in the room and they started fighting for some reason i forgot. my bro kicked him and my friend fell on the console, breaking both the console and the game's cartridge. I was really pissed that day...

- At a party some punk kid dropped a paperclip inside my Genesis, thus screwing it up. It took years before I found out what was wrong and got it working again.

- My cousin (maybe she was around 5 at the time) dropped my pokemon red cartridge from atop of a stair case. I lost all the memory, and I had every single pokemon that I could capture.

I don't quite remember how it happened, but a laptop fell about 2 feet onto my original PS2 controller, I've been cursed ever since, it was my only ever perfect PS2 controller for several years on running with no stuck buttons, no broken buttons, etc etc, every PS2 controller I've bought since then, new or used, always had some minor flaw, like a button would get stuck or feel weird after playing too long in one session, they'd fix themselves, but I've been cursed since my only perfectly working one broke. The laptop was fine. :P I also remember spilling juice in my SNES when I was like 7, and it broke, worked about 10% of the time after that. :(

I did spill Juice on my SNES. But it was working after a few hours. Me and my bro were terrified... our only system at the time.

I used to have a Compaq laptop which I kept in a laptop bag. I played a few games on it that it'd allow. Well, one day for some reason it decided to hide under the back tire of a bronco, and got ran over while in the bag, and the bag also had a tube of toothpaste in it for some reason. Laptop still worked though! Just had a crack in the screen with some black blotches everywhere :( Then, there was a time when I had my first custom built PC. It was a cheapo since it was my first. Just built it to play Doom 3, and Halo CE, and CS. Anyways, I didn't buy a case for it, and instead just built it on this completely stripped computer case that was basically 4 bars, and a mobo tray. Anyways, it was set up at a friends house, and we were having a LAN party when I guess someone tripped, or something, and accidentally sprayed soda onto my computer. I just put my head down :(

is it odd to have been gaming for about 15 years and not had any accidents?

I spilt Fanta on my ps2 controller once. I had to suck the juice out from the buttons. I've never had a broken ps2 controller ever.

- Back in C64 days my older brother for some reason completely destroyed a cassette that held most of our favourite games. I dunno what happened exactly but he's never touched a videogame since.

- Poured a glass of wine on the keyboard when playing civ3, cleaned it carefully but soon the pc wouldn't even boot up with it plugged in.

- Accidentally started a vga bios update while in windows screwing up the whole gpu.
