“Zappy zappy some stuff” my favourite line of the whole short

Blowing into the crevice between the joystick and the controller panel can also help, dirt gets stuck sometimes

Omfg😭 BROOOO, my controller has been messed up for MONTHS and it was seriously pissing me off, I was about to buy a new one and sell my current one, tried this and it’s working great again, thank you!!🙏

Better to use a Q-Tip and Isopropyl so you can control where the alcohol goes in just one area, tilt the joystick in all directions and make sure it’s not a giant drop so you dont fry anything under the joystick or the joysticks connectors in general.

My controller is stargazing a lot and i am happy that i saw this 🤣🤣

[unknowntristn_yt]

Why did my eyes get all teary when he sprayed

[joshdolsen]

Have the same controller and it’s fairly new… it’s the quality Microsoft has with new controllers and it’s just sad.
