My Monitor Is a Rainbow.

Listen.

My speaker setup for my computer is like this:
My right speaker is a pretty good computer speaker, my left speaker is a
two speaker stereo system. How this works is the wire that connects my
two computer speakers is the same type as that which is the Aux input for
my stereo. Since I've plugged it into the left stereo input, the left speaker
is much louder than the right, at -30db the balance is pretty much perfect.

So last night I'm going to sleep and I'm listening to music on my computer
as I'm falling asleep and I decide that rather than turning it up and
possibly waking other people up, I'll just turn the left speaker toward me
(my bed's on the left of my desk). So I do. I wake up and go to school
and come home. Now this is about 16 hours after I went to sleep, I
walk into my room and turn on my monitor. I forgot that there are
some pretty big magnets in the speakers. Magnets and monitors don't
go together very well. Needless to say, my entire screen is wierdly
colored. Not a big deal though, I stole this monitor from my old school
and I think I have a few more that I grabbed still downstairs. But I sort
of like it. The top left of the screen distorts color in a different way than
the bottom left, than the top right, than the bottom right, so it's like
a gradient of awesome distorted colors all across my screen. My start
button is maroon, the bar itself is bright green which fades into the
normal blue which then fades into a purple color at the right. The top of
this window is maroon which fades into blue which then fades into a
cool orange color.

Anyway, that's my story for the day, if I weren't a lazy bastard I'd
take a picture of it.

However, I'm a lazy bastard.

It's doesn't pay to steal....

Oh wait a minute yes it does! [img]http://home.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/heart.gif[/img]

After reading all that, the only thing that sticks in my mind is that you stole a monitor from your school and even though it's now kind of ruined, it doesn't worry you because you think that you've got more that you've stolen in the basement and you don't feel any sort of remorse for it and act like it's an everyday thing that people just go out and steal things and it boggles my mind.

Did you steal them in your jacket pocket or your backpack?

I'm dying to know how on earth you got them home. I'm under the inference that they were going to be chucked out anyway, and you decided to put them to good use, but this technically meant 'stealing' them. If it was just overt theft on the other hand, that's kinda rough dude :(

Your stupid...

When you said stole and old I asumed you meant like taken when they were getting new ones, people at my school do that but thats fine because they're getting thrown away anyway! I'd love to know how you got a computer monitor out of a school but anyway, you shouldn't boast about something like that!

Yeah, did you stuff it under your jacket or something? xD I'd love to know.

Stealing from the poor is bad. :(

heeheeheehee
me and my friends tried to steal a blackboard from school. it was in a building that was being knocked down xD we didn't manage to get it though :(
your moniter sounds cool! i want it.
*steals* that makes it alright now!

It's his old school, but that doesn't mean that the monitors were old. And schools are poor.

My monitor at work used to do weird things when I had a fan standing too close to it. It would go all wavy like everything was under water and no one could figure out what was causing the problem. The monitor was old, but still really good. But because they couldn't figure out what was causing the waviness, they ordered me a new flatscreen. Of course, because I still had the fan beside it, the same thing would be happening with the new monitor.

So then the same tech that we ordered the new monitor from comes in and moves my fan aways and everything is miraculousy fixed. Now I wonder why he didn't know what was causing this probelm before we ordered a new monitor and then fixed the problem so quick after that? You'd think that he was trying to get us to order a new monitor, but no, he seriously just doesn't know his job.

Anyway, one of my bosses was glad to have my good old 17" monitor because he was using an even older 15" monitor at the time so it all ended well and I know keep the fan further away. :)

My old monitor blew up because I messed around with the on/off button while I was bored. Guess common sense should have prevailed really.

Haha. They were in a closet because the school got a bunch of new
computers donated to them. Holy crap. They probably wouldn't have
thrown them away because they saved everything there. Anyway, it
wasn't really a boast, more of a sip of my stream of consciousness. Heh,
get it, sip. Heh, heh. Monitors do crazy things sometimes. I've never had
a fan really close to it so I don't know if there'd be any reaction, but I
know that if I make a certain pitch scream the monitor gets streaks in it,
little horizontal lines that look like they're moving around a little bit, and
if I go a little higher they get smaller or lower and they get larger, but it's
a very small range that really affects it. Pretty cool to sit around and do
though. :p

That sounds like it looks pretty cool. Picture?

I dropped a coke bottle on mine once.
