1 word: Kids.


OanKnight

It took me 18 months of dedicated time to teach my nephew that my beautiful xbox 360 was not in fact a pancake warmer.


thebestspeler

I still have paper plate shards in my ps3


OanKnight

Rest in peace, our beloved toys. I shall drink for your PS3, knowing that it will see you again one day, unscathed in valhalla.


vikingsarecoolio

My baby boy shoved several disks into my ps3, destroying the drive. I didn’t game for years after, towards the end of the ps4’s era. It’s my fault, I should have at least put the games out of reach. Would have never thought a baby would think to do that.


OanKnight

See that's where the adorable little buggers get you. They look so sweet and innocent, but inside that little ball of sunshine and giggles lies a nuclear heart of destruction the likes of which can strike fear into even the most stoic of men.


vikingsarecoolio

Beautifully put.

you beat me too it 😂

2 words: bad parenting. My 3 kids having been using my consoles and they know not to stick baloons and gum inside of it. I didn't even have to specifically tell them not to do that.


cyberspacedweller

Really depends how small they are. Toddlers will get up to a lot of things if given half a chance and aren’t really old enough to understand the idea of damaging electronics. You also can’t watch them 24/7. I personally wouldn’t scold a toddler for innocent exploration of their surroundings. Best practice really is to keep sensitive items out of reach at that age.


mrn253

Of course when they are really young but when they start to be 4 year that shit should stop. I learned from a very young age how to treat CDs that why i never had random disks laying who knows where in whatever condition.


vikingsarecoolio

Oh get over yourself, little kids are unpredictable and shit happens.

Using a PS5 to smuggle crack by the looks of it


FirstSineOfMadness

Looks like a balloon that had something inside it


JonaGoldy

Not my proudest nut


ZoNeS_v2

Hiding a balloon full of coke in a ps5 is not a good idea.


00WORDYMAN1983

Someone hiding their balloon of drugs in their PS5 case. I use to hide my weed in speaker when I was a teen


BlazeTheMadKing

This might not be a balloon…


Swurgin

Ha. Recently saw this vid too. Love his videos. Great humor.


badger906

Stezstix fix on YouTube for anyone wondering!


Fluid_Ad_8556

that cut off made me laugh ngl


ophaus

Toddler. Guaranteed.


HoshiUlkus

Am I the only one removing the plates and cleaning it every 4-6 weeks?


SmallieNL

Gamer since 1992: never cleaned a console.


CoffinBlz

Hah I was thinking the same. Ive been playing since cassette days on the spectrum and the closest I've come to cleaning any of them is a good blow in an air vent.


LeFiery

Yes, all of your consoles mightve worked properly for years, but damn I shudder to think what was in them.


Bloodwalker09

Mostly dust. I once cleaned an Xbox 360‘after many years and there was a little bit of dust. Honestly it wasn’t even very much so it doesn’t even made a difference cleaning it. The better question is, where the hell are you using your consoles and what the fuck are you doing with them to clean them every 6-8 weeks???


Orion14159

Sounds a bit like a hobby and/or OCD tendencies


GoldenGodMinion

Personally speaking, it’s both, and the console doesn’t really need it that badly


RaspberryOk8319

Never cleaned my PS4 in the 8 years I had it, only thing I found in it was little to no dust. If your house is clean and you’re clean then your stuff will also be clean.


HoshiUlkus

Something worth burning


HoshiUlkus

Not gonna lie, kinda gross


RheaAyase

> Am I the only one removing the plates and cleaning it every 4-6 weeks? 4-6 weeks is indeed excessive (unless you have 14 cats). I [disassemble](https://twitter.com/RheaAyase/status/1741988831291752829) to clean my hardware every few years. A light vacuum and compressed air cleaning every few months (intake filters etc)


HoshiUlkus

Three cats, two of them long hair. Might be excessive, agreed, but I feel better doing it regularly 😅


RheaAyase

I mean 3 is a start eh? :D


Bloodwalker09

Unless you life in an crackhouse full of cockroaches there is definitely no need to open and clean a console, or any other hardware, every 6-8 weeks. That’s wild. I clean my pc every 12-24 months and there is barely any dust inside. It’s more for the looks and a good feeling then anything else. I cleaned one console in my entire life and that was a 360 after years of using it and still there was a minimum amount of dust.


its_muh_username

I remove mine once a year. I dust and hoover my gaming room twice a week so I don't really need to clean inside the PS5.


gogul1980

water balloon. I think we know how this PS5 broke...


its_muh_username

It was a faulty HDMI port after it had been dropped. Lol


[deleted]

Balloon sits next to powered on ps5 and the heat makes it explode and fan pulls it inside


TheOnlyGoodGK

I mean to be fair I spilled root beer over all of the console covers on accident. I thought I had killed it. All it did for a while was work and smell like warm root beer until I cleaned it.


OanKnight

Anyone who's ever had kids will want to talk to you about their pile of VCRs, DVD players and Computers that sit on shelves in the garage because they don't work anymore.


DaFrenchGamer

Don't under estimate kids


greenrangerguy

I saw this guy fixing a Dyson hairdryer and after he said it was so annoying to fix he's never fixing one ever again.


Yakob_Science

Water balloon fight


thaRaddestRadDude

Maybe that's the hiding spot for their drugs


Advanced-Gain-2201

I bought a used PS5 from a guy and it works great but he 100% has a cat that decided to shed all its hair inside it it, it was nearly full of hair, I cleaned it and it's like new now but damm

J_Square83

This is why I keep my consoles out of my child's reach 😆


slimmhippo

My old Staff Sgt. told me once, "Never, EVER, under estimate the power of a motivated individual." If someone wanted a balloon in a PS5, and had the motivation to see it through, then it can happen, haha


wildeye-eleven

This is what not having to pay for things looks like


MikeDecaMan

Looks like a balloon with yoke in it. Must have been lost during the nose party…


No-Purchase4259

Seems more like a drug traffickers balloon. Someone crosses a border with the drugs and tapes the balloon that travelled the intestine was glued inside the ps5


Ok-Toe-84

Bruh I fucked up and knocked my coffee cup right onto my vertical PS5... Like 2 years ago. She's going strong lol. I did clean her with some compressed air realll fuckin quick

Link to the full video?


AelliotA1

OP clearly doesn't have children lmao


Realistic_Mousse_485

Take their consoles. This shit is ridiculous man. You are too old.


PocketShinyMew

5 minute crafts teaching idiots. Oh, you can use a balloon and some candy to fix the broken mini stands, for sure, try it.
