Do your parents scream at you for eating or drinking at your computer? Also, if you don't mind, share some accidents you've had if you do. o.o

My mum doesn't seem to mind when I'm at my own computer but ever since my mum got a laptop a while ago, I've tried not to eat there. If you turn my keyboard upside-down, you'll get a surprise. =)

EDIT: Uh... I clearly remember not choosing multiple choices. O_O"
Someone change please. Why am I never able to make polls successfully? >_>

I eat and drink at the computer.
It's more snacks than actual food, because I eat at the dinner table like a normal person. :D
I've been banned from drinking by the computer before, because I spilt my Pepsi Max on the keyboard and it stopped working XD;
But all-in-all, yeah. I eat and drink at the computer ^^

Edit; And my parents never shout :3

We got the computer in the kitchen, so course I do. I'll be munching away on w/e and slurping my drink of w/e while either browsing away on PC or watching DBZ. My parents don't yell. They hate the computer, dad says if it's broken then it's broken...course he has his own laptop so it dun affect him a whole lot :P
Edit- Accidents? None yet...that I can remember?

I eat everything except cooked dinners wherever I happen to be at the time, this is often at the computer.
Nobody is all that bothered, and since anyone else is so rarely using this thing, the crumbs under the keys are my problem alone.

Also, if you don't mind, share some accidents you've had if you do. o.o
I broke our old laptop soon after it was given to me for my own use. I was using it on the floor in my room and my cup of orange juice spilt on it. :(

Me being a clean freak who has a strong loathing of being around an untidy working atmosphere, I'm the one who makes sure that after eating at this desk I clear everything up. The dining table is usually occupied by my parents so I would prefer to eat at my desk, they don't seem to mind at all as long as I'm willing to tidy things up, in which case I'm more than just willing to do so.

I always bring my meals up to the computer, me and my parents don't get along so well. >.>

My desk is quite a mess because of it. xD

I kinda have to do this, as the kitchen is very tiny. There's crumbs in the keyboard but it doesn't bother me.

I do, but my parents don't mind as long as I clean it up, an accident I had before was flinging a piece of Kabob (it was stuck to the skewer and it flung off onto the screen) into the computer screen and having my fork go to the frame of the moniter and make a big scratch. and I believe my sister covered it up with her piplup sticker.

I don't use "uber" Pokemon, I don't calculate stat values,
I don't breed my way to perfection, and I don't care about
natures. I catch my Pokemon the way they are, and treat them
like individuals instead of brainless drones. If you use this
philosophy, copy & paste this into your signature.

Hahahahaha. Oh man, let's just say..milk and keyboards don't mix.

That was my old Dell laptop. I had it for 5 years anyway, it was bound to self-destruct. XD

I'm careful to keep all food items a clear distance from my Macbook now. I generally will eat on one end of my desk or table or floor or whatever and have the computer at the other end.

I eat snacks and drink water at the computer all the time, if I have it. ._.; Not meals, though. The kitchens are downstairs, and I don't to bring up the kitchen dishes.

When I lived with my parents, I'd sometimes eat snacks and drink water at the computer during high school. Last summer, I ate and drank there all the time, just like here. My parents didn't care. I'm responsible enough.

Considering both of the computers I use are my own... my parents don't really give a crap XD; So I eat/drink a good bit in front of my computer, unless it's really greasy/messy food, that'll get all over my keyboard and stuff, in which case I just eat real fast and then move back to the computer. :>

I do it all the time, but generally it's not a proper meal and just snacks.
