-Two TVs that stopped displaying anything intelligible.
-Two cheaply made CRT Monitors that stopped working within the month I started using them.
-Countless pairs of headphones that were crushed, due to relatives accidentally sitting on them. I've only broken one pair of headphones by myself.
-Gameboy Pocket. The screen-protecting plastic cover came off. Eventually, after a year, the screen was stabbed by a pencil in my backpack. It ruined my day, because I should have seen that coming. Still have it around for spare parts.
-Dropped a decent stereo onto the driveway. It broke the CD drive, unfortunately. Still kicking myself over it, since I almost never drop anything, even if it's heavy.
-Fried an old PC motherboard some years back. I was being stupid, and upgraded it with the wrong type of RAM. I'm still kicking myself for do that.
Besides those, though, I usually handle my electronics with enough care to not brake them.
