Default I broke my tv!!!!!

So earlier today, I got into an argument with my father and I lost my temper and threw my Blackberry into the tv screen.

Just click on the link to see it: 024.jpg


Now here's the situation. I need a new HDTV immediately that's at least $700 or below. I've been thinking about buying a Panasonic plasma but other considerations are helpful. The HDTV has to be 1080p with 600hz.

seems like it's been a great Easter for you!

i don't know any exact models, but i would look into a Sony Bravia. unless you absolutely wanted a plasma. i would start looking on amazon, and depending where you live, no tax if you do get it from amazon

Wow! That sucks dude.
I have a Panasonic TC-P42S1, and I love it! I found this on Amazon, and thought you might be interested.

Good luck!

Actually I was kinda leaning towards the Panasonic TC-P42S30 from Best Buy. It's on sale for $719 + tax but I don't know anything about this tv. I'm aware of the reviews but has anyone had it for a long time? Anything I should be aware of?

That's a good deal but the shipping and handling kills it.

I couldn't find any reviews on it (TC-P42S30), but the cheapest I could find it was $678.70 with free shipping.

Counting the tax from Best Buy(at least in my area), this would be $106.81 less!

Have you ordered from them? I've never heard of that company so I need some reviews.

Don't feel bad, I did the same this (only with my fist) on my Samsung.

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. Do u have accidental damage insurance on your contents policy? I've got it for all my stuff, it can really come in handy and all it costs is a few dollars extra a month. I broke my iphone not long ago and even it was covered, my insurance company sent me a $1200 cheque, which was the price it was listed for on my phone contract paper work.

In 35 years, I can agree that S**t happens, but to bust the s**t out of a TV because of an argument; really. Hope neither of you are married, that might spell domestic violence.

I am pretty certain he will lean to control his anger better after droping $700 or more on a new set! Anger management is a learned skill that unfortuantly they do not teach in schools.

Happlily married for going on 12 years and only two arguments with nothing broken - we leave the passion for other areas of life.

Are you serious? Wow, man you have serious issues to be talkin like this to someone you don't know. Not only that but the words you're spouting are ridiculous. See a psychologist.

To the OP, tough break! I would never throw my phone, but that's because I can't live without it!

Hey man thanks a lot for backing me up, I owe you one. To admit the truth, I can live without a phone. Some people can be very ignorant and simple minded just like millwork. That person doesn't know who I am and I could be a very dangerous person. Losing my temper and breaking equipment is a good example. All those haters aren't in the same shoes so they don't know what my situation is.

Thank you! Everybody lives a different life. My father was right but he could've said it in a nicer way. He pretty much had every right because I haven't done anything with my life except watch blu-ray movies, browse the internet, sleep, eat, hang out with friends, live paycheck to paycheck, and go on spending sprees.

That's right man, us grown ups never make bad decisions and are completely in control of our emotions. However we can't help but take a shit on anyone who does make a mistake. That's what being mature is all about.
