Oh Dear.

The blu-ray drive broke on the first day of school holidays. That was so not funny.

This happened to me, and it was straight after my HSC trails. I was so pissed.

Yeah it was pretty annoying, out of warranty too. I ended up ordering a new drive and fixing it myself. How did you get around it?

I was lucky and had bought extra warranty for it, so i send it back to sony who fixed it for me, for free. Unfortunately they wiped the hard drive for it and even though i had backed it up before i sent it off some stuff didn't back up (COD4 single player save, Killzone 2 save, GH:WT save and my internal memory cards etc...). That was annoying but hey at least it works

Ahh well I wished I had gotten that extended warranty. Wasn't so bad though, saved around $150 by fixing it myself.

Life does not have a sick sense of humor, I do. What is the difference between 6.9 and 69? 6.9 is 69 but with a period.

Back when I used to enjoy cigars while gaming, I accidentally put the cheery end in my mouth once. I was waiting for respawn in a round of classic "CounterStrike," and I was absentmindedly spining the lit cigar in my fingers. Anywho, I wasn't burnt, but I did have a mouth full of ash. In an effort to get rid of the taste, I spit into the nearby ashtray. Didn't really think it out, because I basically blew all the ash from the tray right up into my eyes and face. After the initial rage passed, I started to laugh, because, really, what else could I do.

Ever felt like life has a sick sense of humor?

I just spilled coffee all over the carpet and have spent around 20 minutes desperately trying to clean it up before my parents get home. I did a pretty good job, its not visible in the dark.

Similar experiences anyone?

Ps. Anyone know a good way to remove coffee stains from the carpet?

Forgive me, but what?
what does a sick sense of humor have to do with Coffee carpet? did you expect people to think it looked like shit?

I expected my mum to go nuts at me when she got home, probably expecting me to pay for it to get cleaned. The problem was, I had no idea when she was going to get home so she might have arrived just when i was scrubbing it. Stressful in the least.

The only juice bottle cap that's impossible for me to open is the one that I like the best.

If that's not a mean sense of humor I don't know what is.

Ah, yes, life's cruel sense of humour. Like the day I spent trying to ask somebody out, but couldn't because whenever I ran into her, my stalker-at-the-time spotted me and I had to disappear (this was the really creepy one, who'd threaten my friends if she thought they liked me too much or were spending too much time with me) and then, when I finally got a moment, I steeled my courage, started to walk towards her, and then overheard another guy asking her out. She said yes.

You have a stalker? Lucky, I want a stalker.

Otherwise, its just some time for unfair humiliation of the other guy. Just dwell on the fact that he doesn't have a stalker, that will impress the girl for sure.

I've had three, and haven't seen that girl in a year.

First boil some water, pour over stain (not when piping hot though as may melt/damage said carpet). After the warm water add some salt and the salt should soak up the coffee stain.

If this fails, buy an industrial strenght carpet cleaner...or try to colour the stain the same colour as the carpet...or pour coffee over the rest of the carpet and hope that no-one will notice.

Life always plays sick sick jokes on me. Especially childproof caps. They keep `improving` them and after a while you just cannot get them open anymore.

I kicked a hole through my girlfriends wall in my sleep (she has a loft conversion). All I could think of.

Three!? You're only 16 for gods sake!
This actually interests me.
What is it that made you attractive to stalking types?

 

[JourneyThroughHell]

Oh, when I get to eat in the canteen, I never take soup. Either my coordination is so bad or I am just hopeless but I spill it. Every. Single. Time.

 

[PhantomCritic]

Even though I hardly make mistakes, the ones I do make always win the prize for biggest blunders ever, still feel cursed that way...

Once I figure that out, I'll tell you.

An ex-girlfriend's mother got the impression that I was both suicidal and homicidal and called the police on me. While I had the worst cold in living memory. So, here I was, explaining her idiocy to two bemused provincial policemen while various fluids caroused happily inside my head.
That was not fun. The shame..

 

[Valiance]

I do sometimes think life has a sick sense of humor. Two teachers at my school today suffered from heart attacks during classtime, one of which I witnessed myself. This is especially ironic to someone like me who owns a Death Note.

And no, I use it to notes in English.

My name is Oscar Tichibana, and I have a calculus test monday, so if you could do me a favor...

Wow, talk about protective Mothers. That would have been quite the interesting experience.

Red wine will get that stain right out.

Wow it worked! I can't see the coffee at all any more!

New question guys, whats the best way to get rid of red wine stains on the carpet?

Crude oil will get out all of those pesky stains, just pour it on and worry no more.

I mostly tend to spill things onto electronics, that don't like having things spilt on them.
