I had a test running that kinda self-destructed itself, I don't think the technicians blame me too much, more kinda one of those weird no-one to blame accidents, it just happened whilst I was doing my test . . . looks like it is fixable though . . . phew. . . .

i knocked over a very very expensive BMW motorcycle last weekend
brand new
in a showroom
i know the guy, he's a mechanic and it was his showroom/bike so he didn't freak, but there was quite a bit of damage
i was sitting on the damn thing when it fell, heavy as hell, we were both kinda relieved i wasn't crushed...

This was not me, thank God, but my brother "broke" a nuclear submarine. Not sure of the "classified" details, but he was supposed to do some maintenance on this sub and he had someone else do the work for him, and they failed to do it. As a result, he was blamed and the submarine had to turn around, abort the mission and return to port. God knows how much that cost, but he did spend some time in the brig!

If we were all affected by Pacman as children we would be sitting in dark rooms, munching pills, and listening to electronic music!

I broke someone else. They sued me. Cost alot.
Nah jk, but i'm sure it will happen one day, i'll fall over or something and break some old lady's arm and she'll get all cranky with me and take all my money. She prob wont even be hurt but will wear fake bandages to the trial saying i tried to do her in. Older people hate me because i wear things that scare them.
To date the most expensive thing ive broken...?
A venetian glass vase.
It was an accident...but everyone was so angry with me...
*cries*

The existance of flamethrowers says that someone, somewhere, at sometime said "I need to set that thing on fire, but it's too far away."
