There were safer ways to destroy that laptop in that setting? Really?
You get real, okay.
I think we would all be delighted to learn, Goldi, how many teenage girls you have raised, how they turned out, and what your relationship with them is like now. Have any of your teenage daughters posted an ugly, insulting, dishonest diatribe online to display their contempt for you and your values? Have any of them told more than 400 people lies about your cruelty? Have any of them showed such complete public ingratitude for your labor? If so, how did you handle it and what was the outcome?
If the answer is no, you don’t have teenage daughters and/or no, you’ve never been through anything as horrendous as this with them, then perhaps you should reserve judgment. This guy’s approach seems to be working very well indeed. Even his daughter seems to think so.
Aaaaah Waaaaa....
Would have been more dramatic to blast it with my 12 gauge or drive over it with tractor.
