There broken !! lol

Sic · 28 Mar 2006 at 10:07

right, i know the answer to this. Put Das Boot on, obviously. Mash banana (maybe with a hammer from your toolkit) and cover in sugar. get in a cardboard box (or make a box big enough to get in) and seal yourself in with elastic bands and cable ties. eat sugary banana. ignore broken laptops as they sound like work.

take paracetamol when you get sugary, banana-y headeaches.

hrm.... use various stationary and tool kits to create projectile weapons and test them by firing them at tin cans and the like. Try and create something that will get all the way through an empty drinks can

fix the laptops? / wire them all up so you can have a matrix style silly number of screen display for no real reason - then try and find loads of things to run on the screens, atleast 50% of which do something and the rest just look cool

if you have, or can get a video mixing tool you can do a dance remix of an amuzing video i have of a mate declairing his undieing love for his gf while very very drunk (although i'm kinda planning on doing this later this week)

google for random words

start a blog

post random questions on here

I'm also in the same boat, but I don't have all those useful toys at hand to play with.

My day involves getting to work, checking emails, checking skynews and BBC news for headlines and interesting stories, checking the register for anything interesting, then I spend most of the day reading this forum.

I finally manage to go home after. Good luck with the bananna catapult.

Damn too late already eat the banana but I still have everything else...

When I get my phone at lunch time I will nab a few shots of whatever I come up with

Sic · 28 Mar 2006 at 10:14

buy another banana...or find some other food to do it with.

iCraig · 28 Mar 2006 at 10:16

See if you can swallow the banana whole.

With all those boxes you must be able to make yourself a robot costume. You could use the cable ties and elastic bands to articulate the joints.

Go on, you know you wanna...

Boomstick · 28 Mar 2006 at 10:19

What the worst that could happen? You get the day off why a doctor is removing them al

Put all the elastic bands and cable ties round your wrist, leave it for a couple of hours then hit it with the hammer, photograph the resulting haemorrhage.
