This just in! Malfunctioning technology causes anger! That's according to a new British survey, which finds that 73% of people have hurled a gadget in a fit or gage, while 75% admit to swearing or losing their temper. A really desperate 10% admits to turning to booze when their gadget isn't working. Only 10%?

I actually find it kind of strange that there's only a 2% difference between getting angry and swearing to flinging your cellphone across the room when it locks up. Is it really that small a leap from anger to wanton destructing and hissy fits? And I'd also like to know what percentage of people who drank when they couldn't get their computer working ended up figuring out the problem and fixing it while hammered. I bet it's a larger percentage than you'd think!

How's about you guys? Does malfunctioning tech piss you off, drive you to drink or leave you as calm as pigs in an Israeli slaughterhouse? [Pocket Lint via PSFK]

If my gadgets malfunction, I fix it. I don't start swearing and chucking my phone around every time it freezes (which is a lot...).

Same, I try to fix it, or find a suitable replacement if it cost too much to fix.

Yeah.. I've been known to swear at things when they don't work, and I've also been know to smack my computer..
I'm horrible. XD

While my better judgement says i shouldn't respond to this screw it screw it like a turkey drumstick



Methods i have used to fix electronics :
Large quantities of profanities,
Sledge hammers, petrol saws, petrol, fire
Alcohol (real alcohol not that yellow stuff yanks call beer)
Hurling objects until they go through a thick layer of plaster board,



Please note i use "fix" VERY loosely

But i find alcohol has a profound effect on being able to fix electronics

i feel sorry for setotk's gadgets


but yea i use the cursing method it strangely works

Yeah, the minute I give my computer a look and start cursing at it, it seems to fix itself. XD
Its magic.
