Gemdation, the Destroyer

September 26, 2026

If you've read the Debit Where Its Due, you'd know that I like to destroy stuff. But what you don't know is what I've broken. Be it on purpose or not.

This article is gonna expose me a lot. Fear me, electronics!

Childhood era

I will now go back in the good old days when I all did was go to elementary school and watch YouTube gameplay videos.

So I had this white Samsung tablet that I used to watch Minecraft YouTube videos with. One day it was buffering a lot and I was getting pretty tired of that. What I remember was that I hit it screen-first against a night stand, and then a huge crack popped on the screen, and I realized what I just did.

I don't remember what tablet I got next but I remember telling my mom that it just fell off my bed.

There was this grey iPad that I only remember using the Photobooth app on and later something bad that happened to it that I can't remember. What I can remember is that it was cracked and I could 'peel' the glass off the screen.

At some point during the peeling, it started to smoke. At that point I was near a back door and I tossed it out of my house.

Honorable mentions include an HP laptop that had a red cover, at some point it stopped turning on and I could see that the display had warping on it. And the other mention goes to a Samsung phone that had square-ish borders, it wasn't broken but I believe I left it at an intercity bus station. I have to assume it is in a landfill now.

There were a bunch of smartphones and other tablets that did not survive me but I can't say anything else since I hardly remember. Now time for the next era!

Teen era
