Talk about overkill, am I right?

The police report was fittingly titled “Man Kills his Computer.” The report described how Lucas Hinch took his computer out to a nearby alley where he put 8 bullets into it after getting the infamous “Blue screen of death” that many PC owners dread. 

The 37-year-old was cited for discharging a firearm within city limits and has since had his weapon confiscated and may or may not receive an additional fine along with it. 

When asked about it, Hinch said the shooting was “glorious” and that “angels sung on high.” He says that he made sure there was nothing around the area to cause the bullets to ricochet. Safety first, right? 

Okay…

It’s more likely that the older you are when you read this, the less funny it gets. One on hand, it’s hilarious because he actually felt the need to take his computer out and murder it in cold-blood in a dark alley. I’ve had my share of rage when it comes to computers not working but this guy takes it to whole other level. On the other hand, this guy might actually have some mental health problems.

I've been playing games since I was small but only started to really observe and critique a few years back. Been writing reviews for games (albeit, old games because not everyone can have a crazy fast rig). When I'm not writing about games, I generally do some photography as well, so check that out if you've got some time.
