I was painting my Dreamcast earlier and after I put on the final coat, my dad moved it all over the place (messing it up). Now I am out of paint >.<. He said that he thought it was dry >.<
Now my dreamcast looks worse than before (got it used and it turned yellow from being in a smokey environment) This sucks...
discuss/ laugh at me >.<
-
Ask him to get you more paint ? He did mess it up u know ......
Put up a pic , lets see how bad it is........
-
:eyebrow: are you prepared for the horrors that you will face?
also if i try that, he will just say "I'm your father, you live in my house and your under 18. EVERYTHING you own, everything you do, is MINE!" of course, that is the edited version
-
Ha Ha that is definitely true, everywhere !!! I'm over 18 and my dad does that for even the stuff that i've bought myself :(
Post the pic , we can take the shock :)
-
ill post the pic when i can get a camera.
-
:wacko: your dad is mean... My dad taught me how to solder, taught me how to spraypaint/airbrush last summer, he lets me use his HUGE workbench, paintballs with me, and even took me to a "geek" convention.
-
@ Alentris - YOU are lucky :)
-
Yeah I feel for you guys... My dad can get hot-headed sometimes, but never THAT mean. I mean, most my modding stuff he bought for me =D
But sucks about the paintjob Kilokk. Even if you get more paint, sand it all down a little with like, 600 grit sandpaper first. Good luck...
-
oh my dad is cool, he just doesn't like it when i say he owes me something... He is physically handicapped (as is my mother) so we live on a fixed income. I buy everything I have (for the most part anyway) and we usually have fun, but its just frustrating that I got to the LAST coat, and it gets screwed up >.<
-
oh well , my dad aint that great...... hez always cussing me even if i dont do anything. No seriously , if i'm just sitting and reading a newspaper he'll start shouting at me !!!
-
dude... BULL :censored:! I would be so :censored:ing mad at my dad for that!
IDK what the age is when your an adult in india, but at 18 i would be gone cause of that :censored:.
-
I am legally an adult , 18 is the adult age here in India too but the problem is that there is a HUGE difference between India n the USA/UK or any western country as such.... I CANNOT get a job to pay for my college tuition fee and so am unfortunately dependent on my parents....
U wont believe it that my dad bought me a cell phone in my birthday last year but did not get me a connection , he then took the cell phone and now has been using it for the past 6 months. I had to buy a phone by spending all my savings and he doesnt know about it only my mum does. My father doesnt really care for my feelings..........
-
dude... idk about the traditions and customs of india, but here in america we would call that a :censored:head move there buddy >.<
sorry, this isnt meant to offend you but your dad sounds like an :censored: >.>
-
Its not about traditions and customs, its just that i cant afford a place of my own coz i dont have a job and i cant get a job unless i go to college for which i need money that i can only get from my parents and that is why i have to put up with all this :censored:..... I dont give a :censored: about customs.... According to the customs/traditions going on the internet is taboo and computers are evil !!! ha ha : :fear: :faint:
N i totally agree with what u said about him , thank god i've got AM + the people here to talk to coz most of the people here in India dont talk sense, i'll explain what i just said later coz i g2g now....
-
no i mean how fathers are supposed to treat there sons... every culture, it seems, has a different way of going about it >.>
-
oh well its only my dad who behaves like that , its not a culture thing to explain his behaviour. he just hates me..........
-
dudeeeee, that really sucks...
my parents are pretty cool, but randomly they get really pissed at me, and threaten to take my stuff away, but then I remind them that I make my own money and tpretty much own EVERYTHING in my room, except furniture XD
I literally threaten to take their stuff away when they threaten me like that...weird huh
no offense dhruv, your dads sounds worse than anybody I know...and Kilokk, thats weird that he wont buy you a new paint
@alentris:how to I convince my dad to let me buy a BB or paintball gun? :( he keeps saying NO(lol)
-
@alentris:how to I convince my dad to let me buy a BB or paintball gun? :( he keeps saying NO(lol)
hmmm... Tell him you'll bee a responsible paintball gun owner, and only shoot it at a stationary target, or at a field. Also, if you haven't already, try enrolling in a hunter safety course to prove that you're responsible to make your own decisions, and prove that you can use a gun properly.
-
maybeh,
he just keeps saying "we live in an apartment, you cant shoot it here" even tho we live3 next to a HUGE forest...
ill try your idea
-
dudeeeee, that really sucks...
no offense dhruv, your dads sounds worse than anybody I know...
None taken , i've become used to all this....... I currently have nothing. He took away my psp, ps2 (i dont have a current gen console). i've just managed to keep my iPod away.... hmmm... Life is tough...

want an original xobx? I have a few laying around
-
Maybe , how much ? I'm still saving up for a PS3, hopefully i might be able to afford one by November or so.
Dunno if i'll ever get it or not. If i go to a hostel then i can't get a PS3 :(
-
hostel?
-
u dunno whats a hostel ???
Hmmm.... Hostel : An establishment in an educational campus providing lodging and food for students.
-
idk about india but in germany its like a dorm or hotel for students... am i right?
lol we dont have them in the usa btw...
-
yes its a dorm. And a tiny one at that lmfao with anywhere between 2 to 6 people sharing the space. I'll have to make do with a laptop and a psp if i do go to a hostel. Arggh.... It'll dash all my hopes for a ps3 :(
Lol sorry if i sound wierd , but where do American College students stay ? Are the colleges so near to residential areas . I do think that you have hostels cause a friend of mine is coming to the us to pursue aerospace engineering from a really good american university and a she is gonna be staying in a hostel /dorm.
-
well we have dorms but most americans never hear the word hostel in their lives. There are so many differences to the 2 that i just say that we dont have them... Usually we only have 1 or 2 and in some cases 3 to a dorm (one room not the whole thing) and you can pretty much do what you want in them. My older cousin's dorm is basically an apartment.
Work in four hours, no sleep, on carts... need more dew...
-
you sure do love Mountain dew don't you. Maybe its somethin a lil diff over there coz the dew we have is just fizzy sweetened water , lol.
We have too many rules here in dorms. No tv , some don't even allow cell phones. I wanted to go to the us or uk for college but can't afford it. But hopefully for m.tech ....
-
dood! import some us dew in anyway you can! ISWEARTOGOD its like liquid crack!!!!
dude... if someone tried to tell me no tv i would go upside there head >.< granted i would unceremoniously be asked to leave (GTFO is more like it) but meh
-
about the dew , i can see its effects on you lol . I think red bull would be close enough ? Oh n yes , you would definitely be kicked out !
-
US mountain dew > Canadian mountain dew, I believe :(
Canada has these new health rules that says you can't add caffeine to carbonated drinks unless it's a cola or something. All I know is, pops can't have caffeine in them unless it's coke, or a coke imitation. Plus, I think our mountain dew has less sugar than the ones in the US :(
But killok, you should lay off that stuff.. You sound high XD
-
THATS BULL:censored:
caffeine ftw? mountain dew is MEANT to have caffeine
-
Yeah I know... I was so sad when I learned about it. I remembered there used to be "Moutain Dew" and "Mountain Dew No Caffeine"... Then, eventually, there wasn't just normal Mountain Dew anymore. I thought they just stopped putting caffeine in them because they wanted to, but recently I learned, it was due to some stupid law.
-
Lol ! Seems we aren't even given the option , as i said before , our dew is fizzy sweetened water ! No caffeine at all , in anycase the only caffeine drink i trust is my own black coffee. now THAT gives me a high !!!
-
But killok, you should lay off that stuff.. You sound high XD
TAKE AWAY MY DEW AND GET CUT!!!!!
lol jk jk, i am out.... 24 cans in less than 3 days ^_^
-
Dude seriously stop it , too much of this stuff can be really harmful...
-
ive been clean for... 2 days now... drank 1 can yesterday so i guess not CLEAN, but i cut back...
-
Thats good.... its bad 4 u ....
-
lol jk jk, i am out.... 24 cans in less than 3 days ^_^
:/ I drink probably 24 cans of soda or less in a year... that stuff's awful for you...
-
i agree with the theory that if it tastes good its good for me (not really, but hey ^_^)
my dad drinks 48 cans of pepsi in a month
-
my dad drinks 48 cans of pepsi in a month
:wacko: how??? (lol, my mom drinks that much diet coke)
-
Soda isn't THAT bad for you... But a of of it is. I drink like 1 can a day somestimes even 2 :(.... I should cut back
-
lol what? 2 cans a day and you want to cut back? my doctor said that up to 3 a day is healthy. even though water is better the pop isnt THAT bad for you >.>
actually contrary to popular belief diet is worse than regular.... look at whats in that stuff, its horrible >.>
-
oh well , i'm cutting out on soda altogether I started gym today :D First time !!! Gotta lose weight as soon as i can :) Wish me luck... but still i never had more than 2 or 3 cans a month .....
-

-
ha ha , lookin good man :D :D lol........
-
it DID look good >.<
-
Hmm the pics are sorta blurry so I can't tell how much damage is done, but it looks as though some sanding and a recoat will make it look good again.
Good luck...
-
sorry bout the pix... took with my friends webcam so...
-
That's ok. But really, it's nothing a bit of sandpaper and some more paint won't fix.
