X-box trouble

When I was 8-9 years old I had a x-box but it wasn't any ordinary x-box it would have trouble closing and opening. On a saterday morning I woke up and I wanted to game I got one of my games from my self and I tryed to putt it in. The game would go in and I would start playing then when I wanted to play a different game it wouldn't open. My solution to getting the x-box game to come out was tapping the top of the thing, it didn't work as planned. After about 25 minutes of tapping and punching the x-box getting more and more sick of the thing I called my dad. My dad came down stairs and he examined the x-box, then he under stood what the problem was. He went on and on about how I didn't take care of the thing but I don't remember what he said because I was zoned out on the TV in the background. The TV was on really loud so I went to go turn it down and I picked up the remote and came back, if you think about that it should take a average person to do that task in about 20 seconds. My dad had the x-box unplugged on the table and the thing was torn apart. I asked him what are you doing with my x-box and he said fixing it, I remember looking at him with a troubled face. My dad was messing with the tray inside the receiver plate all of the things I don't know anything about. We sat there for 3 & a half hours tinkering with it trying not to mess anything up, he got more and more frustrated with the x-box. My dad got up and he walked out the room I sat there wondering what he is up too, he walked back in with a hammer and I asked him what are you doing?. He didn't talk to me it was like he had no ears, I sat back down and watched. I could see in his eyes he was thinking what he was about to do, I started laughing and till this day I don't even know why. He sat down cracked his knuckles and cocked his hand back and punched the thing in the middle he yelped "owe". Then grabbed the hammer and thrashed the thing like 3 inch pieces left, he went at it for a straight minute until he got tired. I was yelling at him the hole time "dad what are you doing stop it". My dad walked out of the room, I went to bed that night disappointed. I woke up the next week and I found a bran new x-box chilling there. I ran into my dads room screaming "yes thanks you".                                        
               
                 That is my story of one of my many x-box troubles.    Thanks hope you liked it.
