Crap! The A/V cable on my XBox broke.

I dropped it on my kitchen floor, that is made of linoleum over concrete, so it has the consistency of battleship armor.

So until Wednesday when I get paid, I'm without my XBox.

Hell, even if you threw it on the ground with considerable force, it's still just wire. I'm guessing it was the head that snapped or something?
