Truthfully? I feel sorry for her.
If Elita accidentally ruined something of mine (PC, PS2, Goalie Equipment) trying to help me, sure I'd be upset! I'd likely have to go for a drive and cool off some. But I wouldn't hate her, "kill" her, scream at her, or make her cry over some possesion.
But then again, I've never even called her a name, including "bitch". We fight sometimes (anyone does) but not like that.
Your buddy sounds like a jerk. Sorry.
BTW, Elita is very computer literate and wouldn't do that, but I can see her, or myself especially, accidentally ruining many nice things in our lifetimes by accident. Don't even get me started on the destruction our kids do/will cause.
Love and family come first. If my house was burning down, f*ck my possesions, I would only care that my family was alright. If I had nothing in this world but Elita, my daughter, and the new baby-on-the-way, I'd still be a happy man.
