...This certanly proves that you are of Serbian origin...
Excuse? I used to be good at those... Tell them that you went to get a glass of water, and you thought you heard a loud beep (could be an error or overheating) and ran to the comp to see what it was, and then you slipped, and you're not quite sure how that hole got there... Must be the ring...
NOTE: Doesn't work if you don't convince yourself that this is what really happened. You know, if you don't buy it, then your parents wont buy it either...


Careful what you wish... You might just get it.

If you can get the first flight to Holland, I can shelter you for a week or two and you can apply for asylum to the government here, for evading parental persecution

Seriously: Tell the truth. They'll punish you of course. Offer allowance money cut and offer to take a part time job to cover the repair cost (IF it needs repairing at all). But you could not say that you didn't deserve it. Just remember, next time when facing tech problem: if profanity and cussing does not cure it, than nothing will . Contrary to popular believe, hammer and water do not solve computer problems.

I'm going with FF on this one

you need to tell the truth, it will prove you much satisfaction throwing a burden off your conscience

Just say "I got pissed and punched the ****ing thing. You gotta problem with that?"
I'm sure that will go over really well with your parents.

Just think, this useless post is adding to my rank...

Like FF says, tell the truth. Works out better in the long run - I of all people should know

yo.wat' up.....
it's easy to make a sweet alibi....
:"sorry ma..pa....the monitor sucks.....the poor refreshrate will damage ur eyes...u have fed me for a long time....and i think i have to do something for u...so i bashed the monitor...."
"someone is calling me to enter the matrix......and i 've drillled a hole on it...
ummmm......it's quit a adventure.."

orrrr (god i hate following this jackass)

the truth? it was an honest mistake, no ones gonna ask you to buy a new one if it still works alright are they?

anyway, you could blatently deny all knowledge of the incriminating disfigurment in a "what?... a hole?... in the monitor?" kinda way

you could say the cat did it
you could say your little brother/sister/cousin/leprechaun did it, not you
you could say your dad/mum did it and they should stay well away from the technical things in future

Well I used an complitly new excuse ( I lied), and it worked out nicely. My punishment is kind of healty. Punishment was:

Less computer and PS2 and more sports.

lol.. more sports and less pc and ps2.. i never like ps2 anyways.. duno abt you. what did you say anyway?

Science is knowledge.
Knowledge is power.
Time is money.
power = work/time
therefore, knowledge= work/money
therefore, money = work/knowledge
therefore, money is inversely proportional to knowledge.

therefore,

The more knowledge you have, the less money you have.

Prepare for the worst, for you have read the worst.

more sports? if i didnt know any better id say you parents were american

well congrats for getting away so easy. i once broke my cd drive when i ejected it, fogot it was out and when i stood up, it snapped off when my shoulder connected with it.

Who are you trying to kid, Arcon? it broke when you placed your coffee mug on it

heh, no, truth is ACTUALLY bizarrer than fiction, it would be more comedy if it was that but in actuallity a friend was sitting at the PC and i was kneeling down showing him how to do something or other, the cd tray popped out, i heard the front door go and stood up to see who it was and..'snap' may shoulder splits the cd tray

a bit of superglue fixed that though so no one is the wiser

erm, if ANYONE and i do mean anyone can tell me what the hell THAT was about i'd be much apreciated. i have some questions though:

1) "thats the great thing about the UK" - what, this isnt a nation issue, its about PC's
2) "hardly as many fruits as the US" - huh? were talking about PC's, not fruit
3) "we have the capital somewhere" - so do most countries, what the hell is the point here?
4) "dont feel like saying because i dont want anyone pissed" - right NOW youve lost me, you dont want people pissed? what, by saying where the UK capital is? ok, its London, its been london for more than 2000 years now and i think the rest of the world is aware of it.

this is not, repeat NOT an issue of nations, were not discussing fruit, where did you even get that? and you wont piss people off by knowing where London is, in fact your pissing ME off.

am i nuts picking up on that post? did you even mean for it to be in this thread?
