Hypothetical

Mstrtal · 06-11-2008, 02:29 PM

A Person...Lets say your spouse for arguments sake... is in the kitchen cooking lunch, They call out in obvious distress asking you to quickly bring them paper towels. They are in a bit of pain it seems that they in a fairly inept and bone head move have spilled a bit of grease on their foot and the floor while dumping the excess out of the pan while making hamburgers. You however are playing a video game over the internet and a race is about to start... which is more important? Ignoring the start off the race and finishing poorly thus loosing some points and position or insuring that your significant other who is cooking for you and your children is alright?

Discuss.

No contest: haul butt to the kitchen!

No amount of experience points or whatever is worth the hot water you'd be in when she finds out you ignored her cries for help for a video game!

Thats what the pause button is for... (I dont do much if at all internet gaming anymore)

I'd obviously go run and help.
More so because you can just pause.

Let me guess, Mstrtal- are you sleeping on the couch?

Mstrtal · 06-11-2008, 02:43 PM

MstrTal...Was cooking.

it depends on who is in the kitchen

her, you haul your butt in there
you, she will get around to it

I assume Marin chose the game. right?
I think that entitles you to skinning all of her stuffed animals for that cloak that you wanted.

oh then the above rules don't apply

sit your bitch ass on the couch and play the damn game while the skin blisters off my foot. Don't worry about me - I always wanted to see what the difference is in the degrees of a burn. Besides I probably have enough skin on my fat ass for several grafts so its no big deal - just sit there and play.

YOU FU*****ing B***tch!!!!!!!!!!!!!

but yea - if she was cooking - drop what your doing and go a running if you want to ever get laid again.

If its you - suck it up - she's finishing the game.

I'm almost over most of my issues steming from my divorce
almost

I don't think my wife would sleep on the couch. If I told her that she had to she'd get all mad and I'd be on the couch wondering what just happened.
