I never broken anything expensive because before I could my mother bought me one of those blow up clowns with sand in the bottom like you had when you were a kid.It is great.You can punch the hell out of him and he is always ready for more and it doesn't wake my wife up.

Ive broken these things:

2 Wireless Mice
1 Cordless Phone
1 Xbox Controller
1 Television Remote Control
Endless amounts of pens and pencils

And Ive learned only one thing:

Concrete walls dont get holes when you punch them.

I picked my chair up and heaved it across the room. It lodged in the wall about three feet up. Fortunately I am can patch drywall.

Edit: Felt Great

Killed one cheap mouse. But what hurt wasnt the broken mouse when slammed on my desk. The new 21" screen broke too and started losing half its brightness. Oh well, the guarantee took care of it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The following is not a complete list, as I'm sure I am forgetting some things, but here's things I remember breaking either while, or due to, online play (both blackjack and poker)

Holes in wall (2 punches/palms, 1 kick, 2 by thrown TV remote, 4 by thrown chair (on bounce from ground) 20+ tiny ones by thrown pens)

Office chair in front of comp (now in 3 pieces, but reassembled, still works, but squeaks when turned)

Closet door (beaten gradually over time until it came off its hinges. Now, it's a walk-in closet.) <bedroom door also damaged, but not broken>

Mirror on dresser (good news! It's not 7 years' bad luck, only 7 days)<was trying to throw TV remote at wall, missed>

3 out of 4 drawsrs on computer desk

10+ CD Headphones (8 cheap, 2 expensive)

A few old videos (none I wanted to see again)

Bed (kicked repeatedly over time until one of the siderails holding up slats fell off. Mattress now being held up by piles of junk from new, and now more spacious, walk-in closet)

3 regular windows (1 by hand, 2 by thrown backscratcher)

1 pane of a Sears double-strength, double-pane window (unbreakable, my ***)

1 plastic patio chair (went outside to find something I never use to throw)

Toilet (took the lid off the tank <it was flushing weak, so had to pull the flapper manually>, instead of laying it down on the seat, slammed it down, broke into 16 pieces and gored the bowl in 2 places)

Thankfully, I've finally started to get better. Strangely though, even at my most irate, I've never harmed my mouse (or any other part of my computer).
