How Girlfriends view the things we love
May 14, 2009 · Print This Article
When I was in Junior High my step dad used to spend loads of time in the garage. He didn’t really get much done, and usually only fixed stuff good enough so it would run for a day until it broke again. My mom eventually named the garage “The Dungeon” for the obvious “I never see my husband anymore” reasons.
Another time my neighbor was coming over to play PS3 and his girlfriend was like “You guys have fun on the nerd box.” Offended, I explained the hardware difference between a PS3 and an Xbox – but I could tell she didn’t give two shits.
And on yet another occasion we were celebrating my friends birthday as he got completely hammered. Toward the end of the night his girlfriend made an unfunny comment about how someone wasn’t getting any action tonight (referencing his inability to get an erection while wasted).
The point here is that those special ladies in our lives often find a way to demean the things we love. Anything that has the ability to take attention away from a female is considered competition.

I don’t think it necessarily the objects above that sets her off… it’s the budding bromance she covets

I had to tell my husband that he wasn’t allowed to play all the roles in my life. If you do things together and have fun, maybe knowing the tech stuff won’t matter.

Did we really need a 186 word intro for “flacid penis meister”?
Seriously? anything that takes time away? I love when my husband takes time away from me to play on his computer and make me a Valentine’s Day Card. Doing that one thing on the computer gives him mega points, and he can do any number of guy things for a month without me questioning it afterward. He knows enough to balance his “for him,” “for her,” “with me,” and “for us” time. I do too. Its not hard if you like the other person.
i’m a woman…i like everything on this list…and my boyfriend despises football.
Hint: it’s not the objects she resents. It’s the fact that you ignore her in favor of them, and/or you become an asshole in their proximity.
Your respondents are mostly female, telling you you’re full of crap. The age and maturity level of your girlfriends is what’s kicking off the response to your “bro-time”. A few of the things I have in common with hubby is games/drinking/lack of sports liking. In my house we joke that my husband loves the computer more than he loves me. The fact is, he loves chicken more than he loves me. I don’t care, cause we all need our time to have “guys/girls nights” out. Do you and your fellow gamer/drinker/football guys get all twisted when your women want a girls night out?
Leave him… and come away with me. I think I love you!
I’m a woman, I’m married, I play WoW, I love PS3 and DS and I handle torrents and computers better than the hubby
Let me know if you ever split up.
I resent this… I play CoD, and I had to talk my boyfriend into getting his own PS3, I drink Jag, and my boyfriend gets mad at me when i watch football.
another girl here… sundays (and occasional mondays, thursdays, etc) during football season are great! go steelers
i usually watch without the fiance though cause he likes another team.
i love video games.
and jager’s not that bad.
i remember not liking this stuff when i was in like my freshman year of high school and needed to spend every second with a boyfriend. i agree with the comment about age/maturity level.
What font did you use for the “Jagermiester” on that image?
But I’m a girl and I LIKE all the things you’ve shown… I use uTorrent all the time…
Your site is horribly sexist… =[
