Have you ever hit a gadget hard out of sheer rage because it isn't working fine?

Some days back, I saw a friend of mine hitting the CPU with his legs because the PC had hanged due to some errors. There are always some crazy people who upon getting angry, throw things hither-tither in the course of finding a solution that never works. Well, it might work at making you feel better for that split second before the horror sets in and components scatter across the floor.

Do we have some fellow engineers who can't control their rage? Or are you a zen master, completely in control of your periodic urges to smash smash smash?

    Well I totally control my anger where I get frustrated and slap myself instead of the system or any gadgets I have because I love them more than myself ๐Ÿ˜› I know that sounds totally weird but is true in my case xD

    Nope. I'd never. I totally love all things electronics because electronics is 'cool'. People who slap / kick gadgets are cruel and inhumane.

    most abused component is ALT+CTRL+DEL when computer just hangs in infinite time.

    I've seen people press the keyboard keys hard to make something work on the screen. ๐Ÿ˜– Do people realize that it's the electric signals travel through the wires? Hitting the keys hard won't make electric pulses travel more forcefully. ๐Ÿ˜

    So True! I don't see why people hit the Enter Button so hard all the time! Mostly the people who are new to PCs. They press the button as if they've accomplished a major success.

    Poor keyboards! ๐Ÿ˜ณ

    Reminds me of how I killed a mosquito once while texting on my N79 - Poor N79 went flying to the other side of the room and hit the window, lucky for me the window was closed or else it was RIP N79.
