Well . . . I kind of get the "smash new expensive toys" videos. They're making fun of the insanity, in our consumer-driven and vain society. Whoever has the most expensive, shiniest, and frivolous new toys is the coolest. (I'm not saying everyone who has an iPod, for example, is like that. Sorry . . . that's kind of generalizing, I know. But I think you know what I'm getting at.)

So when they smash things right in front of people's eyes, who have been waiting for their new toy for weeks or months, it's kind of funny. But you know they're really just doing it for themselves, to get attention (and maybe money). Not because they're actually trying to make a "statement". That's just what they want you to think.

See, those guys I get a chuckle out of. It's stupid, but generally they are being harmless. They smash the things in the parking lot, away from other people so they don't get hurt.

But when some idiots actually create a home made bomb . . . firecrackers are bad enough (like in the Athlon blowing up video), but a frickin' bomb?! And what if something goes wrong? Like the bomb goes off prematurely, by accident? Then how funny will it be? Or if one of them gets the bright idea to blow up someone's property, in the local neighborhood?

I don't get it either.

Basically, they shelled out big bucks just to break something and they're DEFINITELY NOT getting their money back because warranities do not cover acts of asshatisms.

Edit-- Taking note of the fact that this post is #1982! 8D

I have a favorite song by John Hiatt that tackles this sort of topic. It's called "Perfectly Good Guitar". It's about idiots ruining guitars and wasteful behaviour.

Oh wow... I've not heard that song in so long... I play guitar and back in highschool, I was really into heavymetal (not what the kids call heavy metal today)... Well, I'd never bust up my guitar, but my friend thought it was funny and had me listen to it... Cool song... and so very ture...

I'll have to look that one up... lolwhere to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Poor computers.

I think that is a CD of explosions intended to be used for visual FX in filmmaking. I didn't read much about it, but I've seen stock footage of explosions, fires, and other pyrotechnic imagery that can be composited with life action to make low budget visual FX. Since most shoestring budget filmmakers cannot usually afford to really blow up a building, miniature, spaceship, or set fire to scenery for that intense action sequence, these video sequences help provide the look fire, explosions, etc. to the film.

So I could be wrong, but I don't believe this CD is in the idiot category - just the filmmaking category.

wait a minute, so if I blow $400 buck on mortars, I can't stick one in a computer, and light it? jk
ah the memories... paper bags full of carefully unwrapped firecrackers and bottlerockets, and a little primer hey, I grew up in a farm town too. hahahahaa um.... yeah.

Once, I helped build a marina, and we piled up the wood, wet wood.. so, it was still alive from the night before, ...o0O(and it was a dark and stormy night, and the indian chief had a milk jug of gas.. and 13 people saw me running from the pile, and simultaneously throwing the leaky jug into the inferno, um, just like the movies.. alteast they thought so..) 5 acres of man and nature... yup.

These people need to see Tron. Just so you know. But I'm not letting them near enough to my TV to see it. Or my computer. Or any other electronic appliance in my house. And not my Tron DVD either.


Why is blowing up a computer fun? People!

To some people, 'sploding anything is fun. BOOM!!!!
So sad... poor computer
