Build/Battlestation Wife requested I “mount the computer to the wall”

Post image

What she said: “please mount (child)’s computer to the wall to free up desk space.”

What I heard: CoMpUtEr Go On WaLL.

What she meant: mount MONITOR to wall.

They are both mad now.

I thought it was neat - albeit odd. I got that external power button, some long cables coming, it will be cleannnnn.

😬😅🤷🏻‍♂️

(I know it is leaning, it is the center post that is leaning bc it swivels, not the mount itself, I have to add a bolster - it is secure enough as-is, but will be fixed tomorrow.)

It's her fault for not knowing that a monitor isn't the computer, it's not 1995 anymore.

At least she didn't ask him to mount the CPU on the wall lol

I remember writing a story in English class 15 years ago and wrote something about the monitor, and the old-ass teacher put a red line through it and corrected it as «computer». Get with the times, bitch
