Did you at least fix what you were trying to fix in the first place ? it would suck more if you didnt. How about slicing cucumbers and accidentally slicing of a small piece of your finger? Havent had cucumbers in years.

anytime i do some serious computer work i always end up cutting my finger(s) on the sharp edges of the case... even though its rounded off.
... aren't u supposed to like turn off the computer, then unplug it when u do computer work...

Heh thats nothing man. I was trying to take off a metal plate in my friend's comp so I could put in a zip drive. . . Wasn't paying attention and late at night. Kept on wiggling the metal to take it off and *poke* Next thing I know my thumb wasn't bleeding, it was flushing out blood like crazy. Ended up putting I nice 2 mm gouge in my thumb. It was whicked, thing kept on bleeding for over an hour.

now, the question presents itself... should I get a new fan, shelling out the $18 for it, or go ghetto style and just break off the opposing blade and get rid of my annoying wobble...

Just go get a new one. (Nothin' worse than "ghettorizing" your PC... what's next, using duct tape to keep it closed since the case screws are missing?)
Hey good idea:P

Ya... I'm not gonna just glue it back on. Theres nothing to hold it from flying off again.

It still ain't broke.
