I can't stand it when people turn on, touch, or use my computer. Call me crazy but I wanna twitch and rip the person that dares to take a seat on my computer chair and use my computer. I guess its this pet peeve that I've always had.
Are your territorial of your precious belongings? |

I'm the same. I always make them use my old one or my desktop. I'm pretty territorial. Bad quality in some ways but I can't help it.

Like whenever my dad goes to turn on my computer, I wanna just shove him out of the way. For some reason, I could careless if someone jumped me for my sidekick though.

I have a laptop and for the most part (besides people I trust) I don't let anyone on it. I'm pretty selfish when it comes to my electronic stuff.

No worries I'm exactly the same. I hide mine in my bed with me when I'm sleeping so my dad won't touch.

I'm only territorial with my stuff if I know that the person who's using my things are a bit... careless. One time a friend of mine accidentally dropped my PS2 and I was twitching like crazy.

Depends on the person. If it's someone I know will take care of it just as much as I do, then I don't mind.
I never let kids touch my stuff. Always a bad idea. -_-' |

I don't really mind if people touch my laptop, just as long as I trust them and know they won't search through my documents or something.
But for the most part, I don't really like people touching my stuff. Especially my favorite books. |

I don't care if a friend uses something of mine, honestly. It's when they just start going through every thing in my room like "WHAT'S THIS? WHAT'S THIS? WHAT'S THIS?" that pisses me off

i'm possessive about my cello, piano, keyboard, electric guitar, and sheet music. and $, sometimes... music in general.
instruments i don't think are too hard to understand, money as well. but i am quite the psycho when it comes to sheet music, and even more when i learn pieces by ear and people are like OMG teach me! or do you have the sheet music for this? it's just kind of like... figure out the own goddamn music yourself, lazy ass - unless it's a close friend, and then still sometimes i'm possessive. i give out money kind of easily. generally i don't believe in lending people money, so whenever someone i care about really needs it (mostly only when i know they're not going to just squander it away on stupid things), i just give it to them. |

Oh my god yes. If someone used my computer without me there I would flip. I'm like that with most of my stuff actually, and my room and any of my personal stuff.

I don't like it when people touch my desktop, laptop, or cellphone. I have TONS of text messages, and I'd rather people not look at mine. I log chats and have blackmail all over my PC's.

Man, for some reason, kids think that whenever I just leave my stuff for about one minute, that it's ok for them to start getting all up in them and ish.
One minute I leave my camera on the table to get a drink, next minute I see this group of people gathered around my camera trying to look for a picture through the screen (when you have to look through the viewfinder for DSLRs). During a party, if I even gave space for people to get behind my turntable, they would start trying to scratch, even if there's no record on there. Some people are just ridiculous. ![]() |

Also what Suzzette said about the shoes.
andd when I buy my own phone super soon, I will most likely be extremely possessive of it since $5.40/hour doesn't equal easy money for phone. and I'm sort of like Arjuna with the camera. It freaks me out when people touches it... before with my old point and shoot I was already like ARG about fingerprints and then people started DENTING it everywhere and then eventually I let so many people borrow it that someone managed to lose it... SO I hate it when people touch my camera. |

It doesn't really bother me. What bothers me is when they go in and like read my documents or look at my stuff that I keep private. AND I hate when my cousins go on websites that bring hella pop-ups // ads.

I get that way when my brother uses
![]() I don't mind if my friends use it as long as they ask first. I used to be very protective of my iPod nano until recently. But I still don't like it when people snatch it up without asking to look at the songs. As for my KRZR, it's a whole different story. The cover is much easier to scratch and I've only had it about three weeks. I'm still really careful with it and am terrified my friends will drop it if I let them see it. |
