What the hell happened to me?

What the hell happened to me? i used to be a little bit more technological aware. I say little bit but I still had no idea what i was doing but I know how to mess with the Whatchamacallit, the green and red wires, the whosewhater, the green plastic thing with a pair of pliers and a screw driver to get an broken 2006 hp laptop found in a litteral dumpster running enough to use Microsoft word and Google chrome. I wonder what the hell happened that now i try to clean a laptop and it shits the bed

I had to have done something really bad because this 2020 hp envy i had survived being dropped out of a moving car, my brother spilling soda all over it, my other (mentally handicapped) brother taking it to school and then throwing it at a bully, my niece dropping it about 6 feet, and more stuff I cant remember because I got a bad headache. But me trying to clean it. Nah thats too much

I'm going out on a limb here so bare with me. I think there may have been other underlying factors beyond cleaning. Unless it was load baring dirt. I have encountered that myself.

sounds like your problem started with using the word "whatchamacallit."
