Shortest rant ever.

So my ever responsible and mature roommate threw my PS3 controller at the fridge and broke it. $55 down the drain. Lesson learned never move in with a junkie.

Was it a dualshock or a sixaxis? And exactly why did it make its way into the fridge?

Dualshock Sixaxis 3 or whatever. It was expensive as heck. And his drug addled brain was unable to understand that.

I just got a white dualshock. If it got broked, I would hurt someone. Thankfully my roomate plays a lot of games and understands what $60 is worth. I still want to know exactly why he thought fridge/freezer was a good idea. Did the battery go down and he tried the old put it in the fridge for a few minutes trick (not realizing you can charge it)?

Well someone needs to take games a little less serious, and get you a shiny new controller.

I'm glad the new controllers have a little weight to them, the old ones felt so funny being paperlight,

Kick him out before he sells the rest of your PS3 for drug money.

+1 if you don't I foresee more rants. wait until you can't find a piece of gear and you try to figure out if you left it someplace or if he sold it for drugs.

I would be concerned if this were a real gaming system like an XBox 360 or something, but since it is just a Blu-Ray player with good graphics it's nothing to worry about.




















No, for real, kick that dude out. if he doesn't leave, wait until he's gone and pile of all of his stuff outside and tell him he's leaving. You don't need that BS with drugs around.

do you really think any of your bass gear is safe ?
this loser might steal / sell something of yours , and then you just learned a hard lesson ...
i think your best move would be to cut your losses , and get the hell out of there .

Wait, you're roommates with a drug addict!?

I say you got what you deserved for doing something so stupid.

I'm with the moving out crowd. I wouldn't feel safe with my gear around, much less any kind of gaming or entertainment system with a junkie in the house. Time for either him to go or for you to go. I'd leave.

I'm sure there's worse things than living with an addict with poor impulse control, like living with 2 addicts with poor impulse control.
