i've fucking had it...the idiot box is going down

i'm dead serious here...does anyone know how to temporarily dismantle a TV? not something that will permanently damage it but just something that will make it non-functional and that my roomates won't figure out

You could unplug it. Or cut the cord that supplies the damn thing power. You can buy the cord for like $5, so it's not like you're really destroying the thing, just making it useless for a little while. That should work.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

you know the wire that plugs into the tv, from your cable or vcr or whatever? you can twist the pin that goes into the tv plug-in to the side so that it doesn't go into the tv. if your roomies do figure it out, it'll probably take them a little while.

that's mean as hell to do to your roomates... but still pretty funny :thumbs:
"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.
