I would generally consider DH and I to be reasonably 'civilised' in our activities; we like nice meals out, intelligent debate and cultural days out.
So why oh why can I not get my head around his obsession with his Xbox? In fairness, it's not just the Xbox but more what he plays on it; mostly involving games where the sole aim seems to be to shoot as many people as possible accompanied by the headache inducing soundtrack of electronically generated gunfire.
For the record, I'm not trying to say that all people who play Xbox are stupid, uncivilised or something, I just personally don't understand the appeal, especially when DH is normally quite a snob about certain activites. There are films that he refuses to watch because they're 'stupid' and yet the endless shoot-em-up games are a goer Maybe I just associate it with surly teenage boys rather than my lovely when not playing xbox husband?
Please can somebody explain this to me? I'm genuinely intrigued!
