Magnets can be dangerous. Be careful how you use them!

  • Omg, now i also want a super powerful magnet!!

  • Magnet is dangerous in every way.

  • Boxing-Chen could totally take out that magnet and it’s army of evil henchmen before it causes any more trouble.

  • Lol, I remember I had magnets and I was like OOOH PRETTY COLOURS because I had no idea that it was hurting the computer ._.

  • Great Power comes with great opportunities to mess up.
    That and Rebirth.
    Generation 1 = Yay! Fishing! They found a way to make one of the most boring things in almost every MMO actually fun. It’s cool.

  • lol how irresponsible ;D

  • Oh the zany magnetic antics!

    You could say that the prospects of such an occasion are repelling!

    Yet still I want to try!
    Perhaps you could call the desire to reenact these stunts attractive?

  • Hee … wacky magnets! BEWARE OF MAGNETS!

  • I remember back when I was in elementary school I had a few magnet crane truck pieces. I messed up so many calculators and got a lot of detentions for messing up the teacher’s. I was getting detention anyways so might as well mess hers up and get an extra 10 minutes for it. She was mean and never called me by my name. Just called me “you” for a year

  • btw, what server and channel does everyone play on. I’m on Mari on channel 1 a majority of the time though I’ll sometimes go to channel 5 on the weekends due to lag. Might move my tailor there since I have a high rank one to deal with on channel 1 already

  • Forgot to mention that the LHC is a huge magnet, so yeah!

  • did you know that magnets work by using magnetic energy?, lol no. srsly LOOK AROUND YOU.

  • Marissa Stole The 1957 Buick

    So she just THROWS it. Brilliant. :P

  • @JUM: Mari, Channel 5 is Touhou Hijack Central.
    Running a dungeon with Remilia, Rinnosuke, and a few other touhous is fun :3

  • The destruction. The HORROR!

    @Mars: And lolikeine! \o/

  • This reminds me of the time in my childhood where I messed up a classroom computer out of sheer curiosity while the class was cleaning the room. My teacher and classmates were furious at me for creating a huge green blot on one corner of the monitor. Fortunately, said computer wasn’t the good one.

  • Whee for whizzing magnets.

  • Magnets are really cool, every now and then I might find one and still get some fun out of it even if I’ve played with magnets a lot. Magnets are very interesting things.

  • OH NO THE COMPUTER LAB!!!!!

  • The LHC, a magnet (system) so powerful it demands constant offerings and sacrifices once it kicks alive. By ‘constant offerings’ I mean “a truck of liquid nitrogen dumped on it every 40 seconds”.

  • AGGGHHHHHHH!

  • New hax.exe?

  • Hax Sign: Magnetize Everything!

    Oh yeah, I had an idea for create.swf: Kyon’s “total logic failure” face. :3

  • That was awesome. =D

    Though, I was kind of half-expecting to see something about those tiny magnets that can be swallowed and crush your intestines together. Yano, those Magnetix ones. Still, great job.

  • Reminds me of the “vs toaster” flashe(s).

  • the magnets not are only dangerous for the computers;are very dangerous for the TVs too.
    when i was very little (with only 4 or 5 years) i give a big punch to the TV with the magnet who my dad give me for play.and the poor TV finally have a little “mark” in the monitor.But more later,the monitor,little by little,turns green and more green.finally,we seems only green people…the poor TV finally dead for “greeness”.XD

  • And the anonymous was i (thanks to the PC of my bro. XD)

  • @GregZor: “Boxing-Chen could totally take out that magnet and it’s army of evil henchmen before it causes any more trouble.”
    Not if she was wearing a little bell on her cat collar. XDXD

    @Anonymous/Vivi: That’s one way to make a greenscreen… =/

    @Magnet topic: Reminds me of when I was in secondary school, there were 2 VERY powerful magnets that were so powerful you couldn’t pull them directly apart from each other – you had to sort of slide them off each other with great difficulty. The damn things could crush your fingers if you weren’t careful… =/

  • Well, this flash was based on the really powerful magnet in our physics classroom, and how it could also crush your fingers if you weren’t careful (the tables in the classroom have metal parts and whatnot). The teacher was trying to put it away so nobody would get hurt, and she tried putting it into a metal cabinet thing, and it made a really loud noise when the magnet hit the cabinet. And it was like “oh noes!”

  • XD
    That sounds like it was funny at the time. Did she try to regain her dignity by saying “…And that concludes the demonstration of what will happen if you’re not careful around the tables.”?

  • I don’t believe I don’t know what happens when you put a magnet near a computer. Something bad, probably. Maybe I should look for it on YouTube.

  • Our physics class is usually pretty silly, so there was no need to “regain her dignity” really. We just laughed about it and went back to doing whatever it was we were doing. I think someone asked where she got the magnet in the first place, and she said something like “I have no idea, it was here when I got the job.”

  • @Slowbro: Well, I think many people are referring to what happens if you put one by a CRT monitor (not one of the new LCD ones). Basically, you get some fancy colourful patterns. As long as the magnet is not too powerful, and you don’t do it for too long, there’s usually no permanent damage. Most CRTs have a ‘degauss’ function to try to remove any weird colours which may be left over. You can access it through the menu or sometimes by holding ” ” and “-” at the same time, depends on the brand of monitor. You get the same effect with some TVs, but they don’t usually have a degauss funciton. =/
    Floppy disks (and possibly hard disks, not sure) use magnetism to store data. If you put a magnet near it then you are changing the stored magnetism (i.e. the data) and it will corrupt whatever’s stored. The same thing goes for audio cassettes and VHS video cassettes. I believe some sensitive components in computers and other electronic equipment can be damaged by magnetism too, something to do with electricity generated by the magnetic field. CDs/DVDs and vinyl records aren’t affected by magnetism though.
