Are you sure it isn't repairable?

erm... Whoops.

Sorry to hear that matey... But do post pics - may well be that it can be repaired.

Are you sure you couldn't get it replaced under warrenty?


Probably not unless it is the insurance kind. I know people that would claim under their home contents policy for a thing like that. People often ask us at work to write a report for their damaged laptop etc when it is beyond economical repair so that they can send it to the insurance company.

I know how you feel. These sort of things happen to me all the time. I'm not clumsy, but I am cursed with what I call "multiple fückups". This is where one very minor accident causes something else to screw up which causes something else to screw up which then causes a major problem.

One (real) example:

I was very carefully carrying a plate of spaghetti and a glass of wine. The wind (created by my movement as I walked past) blew a paper off my desk. I carefully put down my wine and spaghetti on the desk, but when I picked up the paper I bumped the desk slightly and caused a little wine to spill. I moved the wine glass to clean up the little spill, but the slight movement from cleaning caused the roll of paper towels (used to clean up spill) to topple over into the spaghetti. I quickly picked up the plate of spaghetti which then bumped the wine glass. My attempt to stop the wine glass from falling then caused the spaghetti to slide off the plate. Then, when cleaning up the whole mess, I cut my hand on the broken wine glass.

(painfully true story... and no I had not been drinking before the "multiple fückup")


Muwahaahah!

I'm sorry about your misfortunes but that was a hilarious story :lol: :roflmao:

And you coined a new phrase for a chain reaction of bad luck (MultipleF'ups) MFU. :lol:

Yours was probably an 8 on the MFU scale :roflmao:
