Wife threw her phone into a brand new (< 3 months) LG TV when she was about 6 months pregnant.

Saturday afternoon, I'm hungover on the couch (she's already pissed bc I was out way later than I thought I would be the night before) and watching a movie with my son. She's relaxing in the bedroom. At the time we were going through potty training with our older boy. Anyways, I nod off for a few minutes and all of the sudden I hear screaming and a bang. It's my wife yelling at me from the bedroom. I jump up and head to the bedroom, walked past the bathroom and noticed #### on the floor (already excited for what's about to unfold now)... 

Kid has #### on his ### and hands and my wife is screaming at me. Oh yea, my new TV is now officially useless as my wife has thrown her now broken iPhone into it. While I might've been somewhat responsible for this, her reaction was insane (she really had some intense mood swings through both pregnancies). Grabbed my kid, #### and all, took him to bathroom, made him stand in the shower, cleaned #### off the floor, then cleaned #### off of him. The whole time she is screaming at me bc I nodded off and this could've been prevented... Screaming at me, while I'm cleaning poop off the floor and a screaming toddler moments after she just lit $1500 on fire. I know I'll never really snap on my family - if I could hold it together through this, I should be able to hold it together through most other issues.

Later that night, after determining the TV was garbage and fixing would cost more than getting a new one, I took it down to the trash outside. I headed to the kitchen around 11pm and glanced out the window, guess what I saw? Some skateboarders, using my now destroyed new TV as a ramp. Good times :thumbup:

FWIW, I've never thrown anything into the TV.

Had a buddy from home who had a random college roommate who turned out to be nuts, so no TV but in the ballpark. He beat this cat in Madden, and the guy threw his controller at him from maybe 2 ft away and nailed him in the temple. My friend called campus security and housing, guy was made to move almost immediately, 3rd roomate in freshman year. Only happened because the guy my friend originally roomed with flunked out playing video games all day and he had a room opening.

 
In my much younger days my brother and I threw atari controllers in anger regularly.  Sometimes at the tv, sometimes at each other, sometimes at the wall, sometimes at a friend who was laughing at whichever one of us effed up while playing the game.  I hated losing to my brother and he felt the same towards me.  Good thing we grew up since then.  Except...

I also have thrown stuff at the tv during ball games.  I haven't done it in a while but the thought still creeps into my head on occasion.  Billy Cundiff and Lee Evans almost got a punch in the face a few years back, instead I chucked a couch pillow at the tv and swore like there was no tomorrow.  Made me feel better in the moment.  

still want to punch Cundiff and Evans though :rant:

 
Broke a TV when I threw the remote against it when so called Vikings fans cheered Bret Favre in his first game in a purple jersey.

It ended well though.

You should make her eat nothing but potatoes until that $1500 is wiped clean.

 
Back in high school I accidentally threw a dart into our TV in our basement. Stuck right in the screen.

Damn I suck at darts.
