Ells228 Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 (edited) You guys are cracking me up. Makes me glad I have an understanding woman to share my life with. Yes, I know for a fact that if I tell her I need a HOTAS she'd be fine as long as she knows it's only 60 USD and comes with a rebate of 30 bucks. Oh come on they lie to us all the time...yeah that dress was £30...hmm strange I saw it in the exact same shop as you for £60...and what were you doing in that shop...eyeing up the other women to see how bad they'd look in the dress compared to you my sweetness....now about this stick....:joystick: I did have the problem initially getting the Cougar with my (soon-to-be) ex-wife, but she knows I was developing the Typhoon for the RAF and I needed it as that's what they will use (worked like a charm lol) By the way, don't do the flowers thing thinking that will work before you tell her about the Warthog, that will seriously backfire (2 ex-wives and ex-girlfriend knowledge here lol) Not entirely on topic but as I feel I've missed out by not having TrackIR I just ordered a TrackIR 5 + pro clip - when she was out of the room of course. Now I'm just hoping that when it arrives she'll assume that such a small thing is a lot cheaper than it actually is :music_whistling: TrackIR is a total game changer, you'll love it! Especially with the A-10 pit, how have you managed without? Edited October 20, 2010 by Ells228
leafer Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 lol Yeah, I stopped with the flowers right after high school. Seriously, you know when you have got a good woman so treat her the way you would treat yourself. I bet a brand new HOTAS from time to time won't have you wound up broken in a hospital. :D ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
redtail Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 "what's that?" she said pointing to the shiny new Cougar. "hmm, my joystick honey" I mumbled. "You must think I was born yesterday, that's different" "Hmm, well it's sort of the same" I mumbled again. "Sort of?" she thundered. "so how much did this 'sort of' joystick cost?".... I am always amazed how she manages to notice my new kit, and yes she wears the trousers HAHAHAHAHA I can't stop laughing! she sounds like my wife. Reading this really capped off my birthday today...lol. Hey maybe I can call it my Birthday gift (when I order it) ~Redtail~ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Rhino4 Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 Wish I could just buy the throttle *grumble-grumble*... I've already got a cougar and I don't see much difference in the stick and as far as sensors go I haven't had any problems with the cougar... Maybe my cougar will have an "accident" like my saitek did...

Yoni63 Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 Thinking back on how I fly, which is quite possibly as wrong as you can possibly fly, I rarely use rudder and when I do I end up "snapping back" anyway and missing whatever I was trying to do. Though, come to think of it I use it for Nose Wheel Steering... ack. I totally agree with you on that. Until my TM gets here, I'm still on logitech extreme wore totally out 3D. I can just look at it and the rudder puts in an erroneous command. As for nosewheel steering, I can deal with the little control at the base of the stick for that.

nemises Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 ..mate if you think any of us married guys are getting cuddles after coming to bed at 3am after playing flightsims all day instead of doing housework, you've got it allll wrong ;)

On the other hand, by my age, and also after years of drunken sex in college, I dont care about sex. It's more a matter of staying off her sh*t list. Her sh*t list BTW often includes mention of the tools of her trade, not excluding her sig sauer.

Either that or get up super early before she does and play play play until 9am, then make breakfast for her and coffee so she doesn't have to do anything. She will pave the golden path to your computer and bring you lunch/chocolate milk/milk shakes/beer/meat whatever. ;) Okay I may be living in a dream world, but there's an ounce of truth in that.
Steel Jaw Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 You must plan a sexual encounter a night or 2 before hand. If timed properly she will not mind you flying for the night. Just dont ever let her detect the pattern.

Frostie Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 Women are strange, what you do now has a reaction to what she does much later. There is no immediate impact, give choccys = receive instant sex, No, that don't work. You want cuddles after midnight when you've been upto some serious simming, then best preplan by nodding in agreement and saying a few more words than 'Mmmm' when she speaks at meal times. Marriage is not just for bedtimes.. its for life.:cry: When i hear you talk i am initially reminded of those spider females that eat the males after being done. :) Thats HOT! Can't imagine my wife eating me after being done though, but I can dream. :music_whistling: 1 "[51☭] FROSTIE" #55 'Red 5'.
