Technology's Hostile Takeover

Remember in The Brave Little Toaster how all of The Master's technological properties loved him and couldn't wait for him to come back so they could bask in the glow of, um, his ownership of them? Wait...was this movie about slavery? Anyway, not my point. So there were good electronics and bad electronics (all the evil, modern devices) and it was an entire world of sentient electronic devices (aside from the heated blanket who could, unexplainably, move the blanket parts of himself even though they weren't mechanical) who had dreams and hopes and desires.

It has come to my attention that the world of sentient electronics around me is more of the evil kind then the 'I can't wait til Grant gets home!' kind. Why? Everything mechanical/electronic around me is breaking.

About six months back my laptop stopped working. I had to send it in which delayed my school work and caused much inconvenience.

A few months back both of my external hard drives stopped working. For no reason. And they have all my movie-stuff on them.

My cell phone's qwerty keyboard is failing one key at a time. Every time I try to write "you know" it ends up as "you kow."

My truck, which I thought just needed an oil chance, actually needed over $700 of repairs for a new water pump, timing belt, set of spark plugs, etc.

My laptop died on me again, and right at a time when I desperately needed the notes from it to study for a huge test. I subsequently nearly failed said test. Thanks computer.

And those are just the bigs ones. I didn't mention my desk lamp's bulb blowing, my laptop charger only working part of the time, my cell phone's battery only charging about halfway, my video camera's battery only charging about 1/8th of the way, my halogen lamp killing bulbs only weeks old, and inexplicable internet failure only when I actually desperately need it like when I'm trying to sign up for classes.
Just letting everyone know that if you own good electronics, and they come looking for you and end up at my condo, my electronics will probably start singing a badly synthesized 80's-style song to them about being cutting edge...and then try to kill them.
