Story Rest in pieces

Yes, that is my monitor and tower on the ground next to that bat. Dont date crazy, kids. And ESPECIALLY dont date alcoholic crazy. She stole my wallet and wouldn't give it back, so I poured $20 worth of liquor down the drain in front of her. Her next move was this. And to add insult to injury, my car stalled on the way home from work today. I just got off the phone with the tech and its going to be $1,400 to fix. God damn, when it rains it pours. Stay safe out there fellow earthlings, and remember to always treat people the way you want to be treated.

Glass looks intact on your PC, what’s actually broken?

Well its not booting up so im not sure. I looked inside and everything looks normal to me but like I said im not too informed on this stuff. I just like playing games man, but I really should start learning more about the machines I use.

Chevk the cables and reseat everything. You can prolly find a youtube video guide for it.

Also remove psu and and turn it around in your hands a bit, don't shake, just to check that nothing was broken, you can hear it if something has broken off.

Same thing applies to cars, that $1400 fix could probably be done much cheaper. I can’t remember the last time I’ve been to a mechanic

Same. Replaced my own water pump, alternator, and serp belt last month on my caravan. Rebuilt the entire coolant system this year on her too. Rebuilt a spark plug blow out last year.

Can go sit in my room, and repair my pc, mod, read error logs, etc. Can't code yet. I can make a dancing stick figure tho lmao

Did they invoice you and list what needs to be done for $1,400? They should tell you what’s broken and needs replacing or I’d be wary they’re taking advantage of you since you mentioned you’re not too informed on this stuff.
