The only word that comes to mind when seeing that pic is "D'oh!!"


I have never screwed up anything that bad, but I did a pretty good job cleaning a PC once.

I was working on a PC in one of the maintenence facilities here at work. When I opened it up it was packed with dust, so I asked one of the workers if they had an air line so I could blow out the dust. He said "yeah, over there" and pointed to some hoses.

Well, apparently not all of the hoses were air. I grabbed a water hose unknowingly and hit the inside of the PC with water. Oops!!

Even though the PC was not on at the time, it still damaged some parts. I had to end up replacing the network and video cards. Everything else dried off.

I still get teased about it now and then. "Why didn't you just take it through a carwash?"
