My Fail...

So about 2weeks ago i had left my usb part of my xbox 360 controller over at a friends house and thought that i wouldn't be able to play my favorite mmo game PSO BB. Then i found a old joypad that looks like a playstation 2 controller. The problem was that the left anolog stick was broken after i took it to the B&G a while back to play a fighting game with some of the teens there utimatly owning them. :D So i tried using that to play the game any and found that only the grip was broken and i needed to fix it some how. I'm a creative guy so you know i would try multiple thing in order to get that thing to work so first i tried a paper clip...I could move forward but not left or right. Next i tried a twisted up piece of metal around the stick but that didn't turn out to good. shot off in an instant...I went into last stand and took a piece of a rubber earaser that i ripped out of my mechanical pencil. I stuck a needle inside and set the needle a-blaze with my lighter. Next i pushed the rubber onto the metalic stick and let it cool... Unbelivable it worked!
Not only did it work but it was better than the original grip!!! This FAIL brought to you by Joypad DeSiGnEr~!!! So anyway i finally got my usb cord for my 360controller back just yesturday and tried to play PSO BB with it and found out that the old joypad was better than the xbox controlled...The moral of the story. Not all old things are neccesarily useless. :D
