Indestructible Computers Made From Rubber!!!

Celtic

Aghhhhhhhh!!!! I ruddy well hate computers sometimes, absolutely despise the damn things. I want to kick it in it's groin, give it a double left hook and then slam a right into it's midriff. I want to get a baseball bat and clunk it one, smash the hell out of it, puncture it's insane membrane, drop it out of a skyscraper, belt it, boot it and generally abuse the friggin hec out of it. Aghhhhhhh!!!

Steam coming outta me ears, breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out.

Ruddy flippin friggin aun't nora, even the most hellishly dreadful mother-in-law has to better company than this. A rubber indestructible fake computer is what I need today.

Any tips for computer rage anyone?

Goes orf to swear vehemently under his breath.

1. Either turn off the computer and walk away - not always practical (at work of course).

2. Download Grid Runner ++ from here - this I find helps take stress away. I'm up to 6 1/2 million in the demo version, which was kinda stressful, as my wrist hurt after that session:

I'm willing to bet money that you're running one of the lame 16-bit versions of Windows (Windows 9x, Me, 3.1 etc). Get a REAL operating system, like Linux, [Free|Open|Net]BSD, Windows 2000 or XP. For your own peace of mind.

I find that usually, a simple string of four letter words, kicking the cat, shooting the dog, taking a cold shower, popping some valuim, shaking the hell out of the monitor and then a reboot, usually returns everything to a peaceful coexistence for a short while.

Did you ever see the movie Office Space? There's a scene in there where the guys from the office take out their frustrations on a piece of hardware. Then again, maybe you just need an occupational hypnotherapist..
