Mercury Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Talked with my wife yesterday about this. Here's how the conversation went: Me: Darling, I want to buy a new joystick. Wife: What's a joystick? Me: You know... That black stick (X-52pro) I have next to the computer and I only use it when I play with airplanes (:joystick::megalol:) Wife: What's wrong with that one? Is it broken? Me: No...uhhh... YES!! ITS BROKEN!!! I want to buy a new one. Wife: O.K. Whew, she didn't ask me how much. No matter what... Don't tell her how much. That'll be the end of it. :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Specs: i7 920, GTX295, 6GB Corsair Dominator 1600Mhz, 1TB WD, ASUS P6T Deluxe, 1000W Corsair PSU, Coolermaster Cosmos "S" case, X-52pro, TrackIR 4
Fjordmonkey Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 when she finds out... :D It's always more of a question of when then if with women :P I'm trying to figure out how to tell my better half that I'm going to spend $400 on a flightstick/throttle, but haven't found anything that would save my hide from the blistering response from The Dragon :P Regards Fjordmonkey Clustermunitions is just another way of saying that you don't like someone. I used to like people, then people ruined that for me.

Eddie Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 I'm telling you all, just "spend" a bit more each day on lunch/fuel/stuff for work, hide the each days "lost cash" in the attic where she won't find it and in a few months you'll have enough stashed away to get the Warthog. And she'll never know. Or, get yourself a secret second job at weekends. She'll think you're having an affair, and when she discovers you were only saving up for computer game stuff she'll be so relieved she won't notice the big metal lump of HOTAS magic on your desk. (I accept no responsibility for injury or death resulting from attempting the above methods)

I hate how in modern culture a guy in a marriage being "whipped" is somehow cute and funny. It's funny but I'd never have a wife who decided what I could or couldn't do with my finances. Separate finances and a Prenuptial Agreement would come along with the ring.
