Ours is the opposite problem. Things bought simply stay....frozen in time. THEY NEVER BREAK OR GET DROPPED. Hence we still have a 6 year old TV because my dad refuses to change it unless it breaks, a 20 year old stereo system, and a decade old fridge, because they never break. It took me years to convince my parents to upgrade my PC. Even though they can spend loads of useless money on utterly overpriced clothes and expensive restaurants, they never spend money on stuff which matters.
:mad:

At least your parents spend money on something. I'm amazed my mother bought a kindle, since she's running around buying up tube tvs since their going for $20 or less. Earth to mother. THEY'RE DEAD TECHNOLOGY! My mother is so insanely cheap, she doesn't buy anything of value. How cheap is that? Why should she replace her wrecked car when she can simply use mine, regardless of my protests. I've been stuck in that arrangement for 7 years now and she's literally driven the car into the ground.

My mother can't drive. She almost had the hang of it, until she slightly rear ended some car and cracked the windscreen. After that she lost confidence and refused to drive any more. A tube TV comes for 20$? That's pretty cheap. Even an old tube TV would come for at least 100$ here.

Can't stop laughing at this, for some reason.
 
Shitty in the context of all these rich high-end graphics card holding guys. :p
Sir, you don't know the real meaning of shitty until you've seen my old computer (2001-2010) - 128 MB RAM , 1.6 Ghz Celeron processor, and a 35 GB HDD. I used to play GTA 3 at 10 FPS.
ahhahaaaa. that brings me back to the very first computer i remember my parents getting , it came with this really old game called Shaki. That game was so bomb!

and i know how you feel about your parents spending their money on useless crap XD. for a graduation present i asked my parents if they could take me to go get my motorcycle license and instead they blow money on a $500 blender...:facepalm:

If it's a BlendTec blender... Totally worth it! The only thing it can't blend is Chuck Norris.
 
lol @ everyone blaming Valve for their own video card problems
Sometimes it is video card problems, But in the past it has been know to be Valves fault for texture distortion. The purple means that the program failed to load the textures properly, which is a Valve made thing.

I've had the same exact thing happen when overclocking my video card too far.
