Television and Money: Ruined

Ruined

By fuck gangnam style in the anus - 20/10/2012 22:48 - United States - Stevenson Ranch

Today, I purchased a brand new television. Not long after the professional who hung it on my wall left, it came crashing down on my hardwood floor. I'm now left with a busted TV, a tear in my living room wall, and a severely drained bank account. FML

Today, I bought myself a brand-new 52" flatscreen. It was only in my house for 2 hours before my toddler had a tantrum, threw a toy right into the screen and wrecked it beyond repair. I paid to have a nice TV for 2 hours. FML

Today, I had to purchase a new flat screen TV for the bar I work at. Last night I was dared to break an ashtray against the wall. I completely missed the wall and smashed the screen of the new TV they bought last month. FML

Today, I bought a brand new TV that cost a pretty penny. I took it home and it had a defect. After a lot of arguing, I was able to exchange the TV for another one. I got it home and it worked amazing. Later on, we had a bad rainstorm, which flooded my room and screwed up not only my new TV, but my PS5, Xbox, and laptop. FML

Today, I spent over $2,000 on a big flatscreen TV. My dad insisted I let him mount it on the wall instead of paying someone to do it. All seemed fine, until the TV came loose and smashed onto the floor. My dad refuses to accept responsibility, and says I should've had a professional install it instead. FML

Today, I finally got a cable box for my TV. When I was connecting the cable, my tv fell and shattered the screen. FML

Today, the framed memorabilia that I spent $195 on last week came crashing to the floor. It was on my wall for less than 2 hours. The picture is torn and the glass is shattered, but at least the frame is alright. FML

Today, I was woken up by my TV falling down. Good news: It still works. Bad news: I don't know how it happened, so I'm worried it could happen again at any time and potentially break for real. FML

Today, my husband destroyed our brand new TV in a fit of rage, all because the Dallas Cowboys lost. I've only made 1 out of 18 payments on it so far. FML

Today, I fell down the stairs carrying a huge TV. Don't worry, my body cushioned the TV's fall. FML

Today, my phone started ringing in the other room. I ran to go pick it up, tripped over my coffee table which gashed my leg, and knocked over my brand new 50" LCD TV, which broke over my head. Turns out it was a wrong number. FML

Well I'm pretty sure that whatever company that professional works for owes you some money. Unless your house was made with really cheap stuff that didn't hold up.

Well, that's unfortunate and the username is hilarious... Lol... I guess he's just a professional troll and not a tv mounter like you thought he/she was...

Why is it every time someone sneezes some ass wipe say sue him. The installer should have insurance to cover such accidents. That is why we pay insurance to cover our stupidity.

Unfortunately we all are not perfect like you think you are. Mistake and accidents happen to everyone. And for the stupid ***** that say the tv had a warranty. The warranty covers factory defects. Falling on the floor after improper mounting in the installers fault. As I said before that is why we pay insurance premiums to cover our ass incase of a mistake
