Annoying Uncomfortable Disturbing Imperfection Pictures

Normally I refuse to give websites like this my clicks, but this one was worth it.
This list of photos caught my eye, I gave it a look and it brought me many laughs.
Pretty sure everyone will enjoy looking at these.

Here is an example.

There are some real gems in here.

well at least she wear her googles :+1:

This is the new model assembly line robot complete with skin tone asbestos fingers. Pretty life like if you ask me. :stuck_out_tongue:

Definitely a cold solder joint

If only some kind person would come along and plug that iron in for her… :smiling_imp:

Where's the "like" button for responses like this? :D

Okay, so I’ve actually done this before (without the sponge):

I had a user who had spilled coffee with cream and sugar in his laptop. The system was not covered under warranty, so I removed the motherboard and rinsed it thoroughly under tap water. This was at work, so I didn’t have access to the distilled water I would have used for a personal device… I drained what excess water I could and put the motherboard on top of a CRT monitor (this was several years ago) over the weekend to gently dry. The following Monday, I reassembled the laptop and it worked perfectly…

Lucky user, as he would have had to explain to his manager why they needed to buy a replacement laptop if this hadn’t worked…

Some computers like coffee, Sergeant’s had three cups since he got his. I use rubbing alcohol after rinsing to remove water.

I think that all of us, after to much coffee, Mt. Dew or to little sleep have all grabbed a soldering iron by the hot bits. Generally leads to some swearing and some throwing and a self reminder to never do that again… I love that pic, have seen it before but it always makes me chuckle! :slight_smile:


OMG, the Chinese are busy recycling batteries to sell us.

For those who missed it, this image is from a Battery.bros page linked to in another current thread here on BLF.
It disturbs me more than anything recently viewed.
I hope those are more than cheap surgical masks they are wearing.

Wonder how many years that takes off your life??? Can’t be good.

There’s all your **Fire cells getting sorted out…
