The French are known for many things, and this particular French woman is trying to make a name for herself as a violent Wii player. Observe what her husband has to say...

"This moody girl is my wife. I guess she looked like this because instead of beating me on the wii tennis court, she blew up by accident the " happy cows" glass she has just bought two hours before. I have to say she always had a wrenching backhand... and an iron fist ! The wiimote didn't touch the glass at all. It has been desintegrated by the back of her fist. Pieces of glass flew through the whole living-room. She hasn't been hurt and dindn't feel anything. She uses to say she'll hit me hard if I ever betray her one day. Frightening !

You can see the bottom of the glass which remained exactly where it was shattered by her hand. A karate master wouldn't have done better. Blown up by a powerful backhand. We can barely see the rests of some once happy cows on the three biggest pieces remaining." -Christian

I'm not 100% clear on what the "Happy Cows" are. Maybe something French, maybe an advertising ploy for the California Dairy Association. At any rate, I think it's safe to say that their influence in this particular French home has suffered a setback. All thanks to the wicked backhand of a woman possessed of Wii passion.

I don't know that anything actually broke, except maybe a few arteries that were clogged from chunks of butter. That's right I said CHUNKS of butter...

"I just want to tell you my story of how playing a game of bowling ruined the Super Bowl , or should I say the bowl containing delicious and buttery popcorn (Super Popocorn Bowl!). We had just made some microwaveable popcorn and we put it in a bowl along with chunks of butter. The bowl was standing helpless on the table when disaster struck: the wiimote hit it hard and everything went flying, what a mess! there was popcorn and butter all over the place, even on top of my Home Theater projector, combined with the heat now I could fry an egg on top of it. Definetly, the wii is a Super popcorn Bowl killer!"

Chunks of butter being dropped into anything is always good, but by far the best thing is the expression on the womans face. Just what does she for a day job exactly? That's a rather scandalous pose for spilt popcorn. It's like someone taking the picture said "Ok, now bend over and look at the camera like you have a secret."

Artfully arranged rubble. I like it. Winston tells how it came to be...

"My mom wanted to try out Wii sports, so I decided to play bowling with her. She did a really low and fast release and it hit my glass cup of lemonade. It shattered the cup completely. The controller wasn't damaged at all. -Winston"

The problem I have with this whole story is the complete lack of Wii footage. Basically we just have a bunch of glass on a cutting board and cute story about your mom's lemonade. The plus of the arranged shards vs. the lack of Wii inclusion sorta balances out, but I don't think we can call this Winston's best work.

Here we have not only a broken teapot, but a poem. I hate poems. Bradford shares with us...

So, its christmas eve. Im happy, the family is happy. One wii sports homerun later. We have a broken decorative teapot. Blame the over zealous father. I wrote this poem to commemorate the occasion.

Im a little teapot, short and stout.
somewhere is my handle, over there is my spout.
When I get all wii'd up, hear me shout.
"OH GOD, IT HURTS, WHERE IS MY HANDLE,
SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!"

-Bradford

Bradford, I really wanted to hate your poem. I wanted to hate it so badly, but instead I actually smiled. Darn you, darn you and your winning prose to heck.

Caffeine addiction now broken, or least your coffee cup is. Jordo from the UK tells us the story while sticking in as many colorful phrases of the local vernacular as possible.

"wii hates coffee cup. There i was playing wii bowling then tennis then golf, then the dreaded baseball. Then my mate (pictured) knocked for me and asked asked if he could had a go, so i let him have a go off the wii baseball. i warned him not to stand to close to the fireplace. so he did, he swung around like a fool knocking the cup of the mantel piece smashing the cup and bits of cup were flying everywher, got cuts all over my arm and the cup is gone, never mind you live and learn now i will let him play on a wii, just not mine. -Jordo"

Looks like there will be no more Christmas coffee pouring out of that cup. I can't get enough of that white Christmas tree by the way, it's traditional, yet sassy.

Ahh... the sounds of bowling. The gentle roll of the ball, the clatter of wooden pins, and of course the shattering of glassware. Once again we find the flailing arms of a giddy player leads to the destruction of household goods. This boy named Skippy gives it to us straight...

"My roommates and I were bowling and one neglected to look at where his Wiimote was going... right through a glass. It should be noted that these glasses are pretty durable, about the thickness of a nickel. It should also be said that the same guy hit himself in the nuts while serving in tennis. -Skippy"

I'm going to agree with Skippy that the glassware in question is indeed thick. Now I'm not saying that it's quite thick enough for a shark wall at an aquarium or anything, but I am thinking that I wouldn't want to put my hand through it. It looks formidable. As for Skippy's friend racking himself in the downtown region, after already breaking glassware, I'm going to go ahead and label him as "Wiitarded."

Apparently drinking a bit'o'merlot will not stop you from causing destruction. Yes just like that deleted scene from Sideways this guy put a Wiimote through his emptied glass of Pinot.

We all got into some Wii Tennis after Thanksgiving dinner during the game, my uncle gave this wine glass that was sitting on the coffee table a nice forehand. Here is the aftermath of that. -Wayne

A nice forehand indeed. Myself, I can only wish that I had fond memories of an Uncle Herb shattering glassware as he dove across the table for that last helping of candied yams. Ahh... Those would have been good times... Frankly if we can't all have our relatives shatter some glassware over Thanksgiving I don't know what this world is coming to.

Most people would consider underage drinking and addictive gaming two sides of the same coin when it comes to modern teens, but the Nintendo Wii is a harsh mistress that will not tolerate other vices. See exhibit A, formerly a beer glass in its pre-pubescent prime, now merely a shattered dream of insobriety and chicanery. Think of the children, won't you? Here is what the submitter had to say about the situation:

Three of my friends, were playing Wii Bowling and Charlie was in the lead, until his shot was disrupted by the real world glass that deverted his controller when he threw the ball. We have yet to lose grip of the controllers (partly because of the gel cases we have over the controllers) but we have hit objects around the room. This is the first to break. I had the place of mind to grab my camera phone and snap a picture of the incident, along with a picture of an unbroken version of the glass.

In reference to your signature... Practice on a bigger target, like a TV. In your defense, I'm almost certain you were not drinking as there are Gummy Bears in the picture, and we all know that goes terrible with beer.
