Children and CD-ROM drives

Heh. Just be glad you don't have any of those chocolate floppy disks hanging around - it gets hot inside computers . . .

Hey, at least no one's drawn Pikachu on your monitor with a crayon...

Wait...crayon works on monitor screens? I had no idea...

grease pencils work great on monitors, back when i used a grease pencil to mark out a rough starchart on a mac512ke.. was playing, hrm, star traders or something like that...

Mecha: The wax kind works on monitors, unfortunately for me, who had to clean up the mess

I've been lucky so far, I just have a multitude of Tigger stickers all over my monitor. (And no, I didn't put them there!)

Haven't had that yet. However, I did encounter The Uncle Who Must Throw Beer Over Your Keyboard...

Then there was the Blonde with the Tippex marks all over her screen...

Frogboy - Why must toddlers constantly open up and put..things...into the CD ROM drives of computers?

this is what comes of not using the cd-rom drives properly.

if you used them as cup holders (which is surely their proper function), then everything would just go into the cup. much easier, just so long as you didnt intend to drink that coffie

Tippex? Jafo you and your words!
/me goes to grab my Dictionary again...

gotta be a Aussie Dictionary cuz me no sees Tippex and NO I'm not blonde! hehe

What is that Tippex Jafo? dare I ask???

its a white fluid, often in a small pot with a brush.

you use it to paint over incorrect words on paper, and then when it has dried, you write over the top, putting down the correct version.

personally i think it is a waste of time, since my words are just fine as i write them

ohhhhhh "white out" arghhhhh! Jafo w/ his big fancy words!
it's just white out...
thanks feline

"its a white fluid, often in a small pot with a brush."
-Known here in the states as Whiteout.

I discovered our Sega stuffed with Fruit-Loops once. Never did get them all out. "...but Daddy, it said it was hungry!"

dear oh dear, you americans steal our language and dont even know all the words

(rants in my direction please )

frogboy, just out of curiosity what exactly did this toddler put into the cd-rom? mine tried oatmeal, she wanted to hide it in the vcr.

VHS machines have a perfect 'peanutbutter&jelly sandwich' slot on the front...

Playing cards in the Floppy drive make a wonderfull noise when there is a disk inserted.

I had to tape a piece of cardboard over the power and reset buttons after many 'unexpected' reboots.

Sorry, Doreen....but you hadn't been at your dictionary because of me for soooo long....I just HAD to do it....

White Out
Tippex

Whatever...blame a Monkey's mother....it's all her fault...

White out Jafo
White out...

make your life easy hehe

though "Tippex" sounds more like something a Blonde would use...

did I say that?
sorryyyyyyyy

it all sounds strange.

i thought white out was what happened during blizzards in the artic circle.

as for your reference Doreen, i am so used to what tippex is i am missing it, so i dont mind

I had to replace my VCR last week cause after it "ate" three brand new tapes... that's getting just a bit too "hungry" if you ask me. But curious as I am I just had to take it apart to see if I could figure out what was wrong with it. And here's a list of what I found inside it:
3 rubberbands
5 marbles
A slice of cheese (green...ewww)
A small rubber duck (!!!)
Alot of paper shreds
and some unidentifyable masses of sticky matter!!

Then I started wondering why the heck the machine still ate the tapes... it had been fed enough if you ask me
