Got inspired by that other guy getting is computer confiscated by his brother.

I have a similar story of getting my computer confiscated by my mother when I was a teenager.

When I was about 15, one of my mother's friend got into her head that Computer games was teh devil and that I would become dumb if I logged to much time on it. At that time, Westwood studio made a little gem called Lands of Lore and I was playing maybe 3-4 hours a day (more so on the week-ends). My mother got freaked out and confiscated the cable relying my power supply to the electricity plug.

Next day I was at the computer store bying myself a new cable with my dinner money. The computer was in my room, so I tried to play "undercover". Needless to say, it took just a couple of game sessions before she noticed I had outsmart her. Wow, you should've seen her face when she discovered that. And the accusation I got for spending my dinner money on some cable. After that, it was 1 painfull year of using my computer in the living room where my mom/dad could check me. Oh and no game, no pr0n... no pr0n at the age of 15, could you beleive this !

Ah well, today I can laught at it but I remember how painfull it was.

Peace.
 
A friend's husband killed himself (we hope) by stabbing himself in the chest a couple of times. She was never charged, but the police confiscated her laptop. This was three years ago, the case is still open, and they still have her computer.

He stabbed himself "a couple of times?"

Sounds like the police should be looking into his wife a little more closely.

I really don't know what happened, but the family of the guy wants the police to keep the case open as they feel strongly that it's more likely she did it than that he decided the best way to go out would be to put a steak knife in his chest, remove, repeat. It's been a few years now though, so I don't think there will be a break in the case. The police still have a lot of their property, not just the comp.
 
I hacked my way into WOPR and started playing Global Thermonuclear War. The guys at NORAD got pissed and the FBI confiscated my computer. Bastages probably never would have caught on if I had played Toxic and Biochemical Warfare instead.

Not to mention the amount of pressure it takes to break through would have been more than he could do multiple times after getting in once or twice
 
I got mine taken away when my mom found naked pics of Courtney Cox (albiet fake ones) in my IE Cache 😀
 
Good story, I had a Sega Genesis taken away from me, but that's it. I'm good at undercover. They did threaten to put the computer in the living room though! Meh.
 
My computer was in the living room too when I was growing up (since I was sharing a room with my baby brother at the time). I still had no problems playing games and looking at porn when my parents weren't around.

It was a good story(touching/weird) though.🙂
No it wasn't.

Do you have a better one ? I would like to hear it.
Easily entertained aren't you?

I don't consider "THE STORY" entertaining. I just think it's interesting.😀
 
I've been able to brush off pr0n once or twice. My family is a bunch of nubs so they don't know. For the past couple years, I would always name it under stuff like "Huge Dunk" or "Michael Jordan 3" or stuff like that, so they had no clue. But I don't really look at pr0n that much anymore, there are better things to do I guess. *shrugs*
