We asked readers to tell us their most cringe-worthy stories of broken tech devices. Here's what they shared:
1. "The Sound of 10,000 Sorrows"
2. Solar Eclipse
3. Re-Routed
4. Bad Dog, Bad
5. Potato Does Not Compute
6. "Spoke" Too Soon
7. Wheel of Misfortune
8. Game Over
9. Going Ham
10. A Hole Mess
11. Domino Effect
12. Oh, Brother
13. Paint By Numbers
14. Lost In Transit
We could all do with fewer "oh, s#!@" moments. That's why there's Asurion Home+. It may not protect everything, but it covers the home tech you use most, now or in the future — including TVs, laptops, tablets, smart watches, gaming systems, and more — all with one simple plan.
