TikToker Isabella Veronica Hardy couldn’t wait to show her followers the stylish makeover she’d given her husband’s gaming system — but wound up angering gamers everywhere when it was revealed she’d defaced a limited-edition PS4 console worth hundreds of dollars used.
“Wrapping my husband’s ugly PS4 in white to match my white aesthetic room,” Hardy wrote in the beginning of the video, narrating in a voiceover. She lamented that the Playstation, which she described as an “ugly, blue thing,” has been bothering her for months.
So, eight months pregnant and “nesting,” she decided to cover the offending article with contact paper. She began by cleaning off the gaming station, and then wrapped it with the paper.

I meant to say thinking. My mistake.
That’s right.
I am lost, what is the joke?
Darling, while you were out shopping, I polished your favorite suede boots...
I might take issue with that. If you’re not addicted to it, it no different than spending hours on FR. It’s a past time. As long as you’re take care of your important business, I don’t see the problem. The problem is this woman never asked. She just decided she didn’t like the look of the console and decided to change it. How would she like it if he went into her closet picked out her favorite shoes and dyed them because he likes white rather than beige. It’s common courtesy to ask. The console was his not hers. I’m guessing this is not the first time she’s done something like this and won’t be the last. It’s a boundaries issue.
(Just leave your guys’ stuff alone ladies)
Thank you
Had a buddy I went to grade school up through high school with and we remained close after. He had a son. The son graduated from high school and the grand parents had a little party for their grandson. Since he was heading off to college after the summer, Grandma gave him a study set with a calendar pad, desk lamp and trash can.
Being the crafty little gal she was, Grandma found my buddy’s box of old baseball cards (late ‘60s to early ‘70s Topps) in the attic and she decoupaged them to the lamp and trash can and up both sides of the calendar.
After the shock wore off, my buddy took it in stride, did a little research in the latest Beckett Baseball Card Guide and lamented that his son was the proud owner of a $4000 lamp and garbage can. 🤣
Beneficial suggestions, hope to ride more bicycle for distance, and walk for an hour each day.Thanks for the nudge, I do need to DO more things.

It's a frikkin' used game console, she put contact paper on it, and it'll peel right off again.
This isn't a big deal for people to get upset over.
My ColecoVision has a “made in Pennsylvania” sticker on the bottom of it.
You don’t see that anymore....
I thought that the original big 5200 was a far nicer more expensive looking device than the 7800..
Same with the original PS4 compared to what came after.
They were very cool controllers but a flawed design.
I can’t tell you how many times I had to take them apart to clean the contacts.
No self centering didn’t help much either..
Whoops, I meant the original ps3 not 4..
Oddly, I found the Magnavox O2 controllers to be responsive and precise.
Also the GCE Vectrex controller, though
undersized, worked great.
The original Atari 2600 VCS joystick had too hard a throw for my taste.
The ColecoVision mushroom was unfairly maligned. The really cheapo Coleco Gemini controllers worked great, though the integrated paddles made an awful scraping noise.
Mattel Intellivision disc was worst of show (besides the 5200).
The 5200’s keypad buttons also were hard to push, and too small.
The ColecoVision had mediocre flat solenoids, but the ColecoVision SuperAction Controllers had great calculator style buttons (stick was NG for maze games, though)
Even in a marriage there is stuff that is "His" or "Hers" and the other one does not touch without permission.
Is the concept of asking so very hard?
Apparently for this lady, it is.
Its because in marriage, women have the mindset that whats hers is hers, and whats his is also hers.
