Hmm ive had all the common stuff happening to me like :


Turning off the internet
Standing there for 5 mins shouting at me telling me to turn off
^ if that didnt work she would push the power button on my PC.

^ that set me off on a temper cos usually was in mid-match so id get up, Pick my mum up (shes only 5ft) and put her back in the kitchen and lock the door whilsts shes kicking and scratching me.

^that pissed the dad off so now he comes marching in and i cant really argue with him cos hes a butch bastard and he would just pull my wireless dongle out and hide it somewhere and id have to ask him for it the next day when i came back from school after ive shown him what work ive done and if ive done all my homework.

^Id then start playing cs again as usual.

^ Then were back to square 1 with them turning off the internet at bedtime....and so-on.

Now they dont care though. They gave up. I won. I ended them both . Owned Mum n Dad 2k8 cY@

altikal 1 - Mum and dad 0


Yeah, all the usuals really. Had a few extras like my mum once hid my power cable in the tumbledryer, when she realised i knew where it was she took all the power cables away xD, so i bought another. I guess everyones had just as much hassle as each other.

Personally i dont think my mum really cares about the amount i game nowadays, think she gave up alongggg time ago, although i do still occasionally feel bad for the shit iv given her over games Sad

Well my mum plays world of warcraft..... so tbh i get no hassle. I get the odd few gold of her(she brought my two epics mounts Big grin) only hassle i get is when i don't play world of warcraft enought

" Carl if you think i am going to level your chars aswell you can fuck off, you lazy noob"

Haha funny to see some of you actually go through the same shit. My computer is downstairs so if I rage and smack something ill hear them complaining but other than that when they go bed they don't care but now and again if I miss school for a while i'll get alot of shit and they'll take modem and stuff. My dad is worse for it he doesn't shut up saying im playing "cowboys and indians" H@H@ and expects me to be out working a full time job or something so he rages when im just sitting@pc. He doesnt realise people actually fucking stay in school longer than up to when you're 15 these days.(he was trying to force me to leave school after junior cert to get a job when I was like 15 l0l~ dont know if ye have some equivalent of junior cert in uk) They even canceld internet before but I orderd it back the same day it took fucking 2 weeks to get re-activated though. Probably because my sleeping pattern is always fucked more than anything that's why I miss so much school. I can't get to sleep early if I try i'm always up untill about 6 in morning school or not. Then most times ill just try stay up and not sleep before school and sleep when I get home.
Not because i'm addicted to my pc (well I kind of am) but i've always been like that anyways, but they just think it's only because of them computer and that's why they always rage about it.
Like someone else said why go out and get cold standing around when you can be at home on your pc. Here if I go out (other than drinking or to something actually planned out) then we just sit around doing fuck ALL in town. So it's either that or hang around on de_nuke nice and warm bashing heads.

Oh the joys of being young. ^^
I'm nearly 20 so for me it's great, I just bought my own Computer quite a few years back now and just kept it in my room. Even then for me when I was like 14-15 or so my parents didn't really mind as long as I didn't keep them awake with noise, which often was the case. But they would just kinda say, "It's 2am, you ought to get some sleep as you have to be up early and your keeping us up." Etc etc.

The one thing I found recently that amused me was that my pops switched my sister into the room next to mine and him and my mother moved to the other one because my typing on the keyboard was to loud. Seriously, the Saitek Eclipse2 is insanely loud tbh. :P

Though I wish my Uni was further afield as I'd have moved out, just it's fairly close so there's no point. =P

Lol i live on a road that has a barrier in the middle, and me and my neighbor used to play tennis over it cos there was fuk all else to do. our tennis balls kept rolling underneath his car and he got really annoyed wiv it cos he was worried we were gnna scatch it or summat and he took my tennis balls the bastard.

So i egged his front window 3 times when they left. Egged his door. Then wen back home and threw huge water balloons over 2 peoples gardens trying to hit there greenhouse. i missed and got in there upstairs window and soaked there Rug on the floor. Owned. I still hate them nowdays cos they never smile! and his wife is fat.

i was only in year 8 when this happened though. that typical bored stage you go through.

to be fair if i was a parent, having gone through the days and nights of not being able to tear myself away from the PC to get some sleep liek i have, i would be fucked if i'd let my kid carry on like that.

at least when i was in i werent out under age boozing or taking drugs though, i reckon the internet helped to curb all that a bit.
