to think I am going to pummell you over the head with your fucking xbox controller

[ahhyesiseeyouvepooedonyourfoot]

I love him very much, he is wonderful

But right now watching him shovelling kettle chips into his mouth, with the sound of fucking grenades and machine gun fire and the same sentences repeated by the american marine characters AND him to talking into his headset to his friends playing the same game "get him, fucking get him on the turret, oo yeh right in the head, fuck yeh, I am fucking AWESOME" while I run and downstairs trying to settle the baby (disclaimer:he has offered and I have with cats bum mouth said no, so yes it is my own fault) is making me WANT TO KILL HIM.
Doesn't normally bother be too much but tonight its making my skin itch with irritation
May be hormonal.

My DH just offered to run me a bath in exchange for an extra evening
Playing on skyrim

Just do it :o

Don't even get me started on fucking skyrim.
And when they say " I haven't had ANY time to myself to play my games" haven't you? really? maybe its because you're a GROWN MAN

YANBU/YABU.

Bit of both really. I'm quite prone to irrational anger (football manager is the culprit).

Make him get the baby though

Do something shocking like I don't know walking around butt naked but for a bow tie
Or put on ALL your clothes at once and time how long it takes him to notice.

anna he always claims it was football manager that cause him to drop out of uni (well before I was on the scene I hasten to had

*caused
Also have I spelt pummell wrong? is it pummel?

I like the idea of putting ALL my clothes on, I might go upstairs put one on..come downstairs..wait a bit..go upstairs put another one on, go downstairs..etc etc

Do it do it

I find mispronouncing all footballers names a godsend, refering to skyrim as skyrimming and whispering 'shoot him, shoot him' thus causing him to end up bleeding out.

Ha ha another x box widow here, fortunately he hasn't delved into the delights of xbox live but if he can't get his Hitman out of this 'facility' soon I will lose the will to live.

Actually he doesn't need xbox live because I get the running commentary anyway

What the jeff is SkyRim? Sounds a bit dirty

I'm a WoW widow. Sometimes it doesn't bother me...goes right over my head, but there are othertimes when I fantasise about leaving him and having him come home to an empty house with nothing in it but the PC with a brick through the monitor.

and they're all so bloody violent. Tis horrid.

YANBU. But don't say no any more if you mean yes. No does not mean yes, ever! This is important!

Skyrimming, brilliant, that is what I am going to call it from now on MasteroftheTriforce

"And when they say " I haven't had ANY time to myself to play my games" haven't you? really? maybe its because you're a GROWN MAN " - yesssss, try telling the fuckers that tho!

Also..I'm whispering this because I'm not sure if its normal even amongst gamers... they all shout "jew" at each other when they're playing as in "he jewed my kill"
It makes all and makes me sheperd any of my friends who are over while he's playing out the room.
cringe
You know kayano and master you can delete their personal games on skyrim so it loads normally but their game has vanished...imagine their face!

Oh god now I'm really in the shite! I told him about this thread "that someone on mumsnet had put up" because I was amused by some of the answers and he's asked me to link him so he can put it on xbox forums! He Knows My Name! heeeeeeelllppppp

The One Fucking Time I bitch about him in AIBU I cock it up! I am a failiure as a woman. Now build me a fake thread NOW!

Hahaha, my OH does the jew thing too!

Oh thank god..I was terrified I was going to get flamed for having a racist DH...he's not, I don't know what gets into them they're normally such nice boys

One simple phrase: "oh no, looks like MNHQ deleted it ... "

Another surefire way to hit back at being an Xbox widow is to play it.

DH was always on Call of bloody Duty so one afternoon I picked up the controller and started to play very, very badly. I have managed to Semtex myself in the face, fired uncontrollably into the sky/ground/wall whilst being shot at from all sides, and have a tendency to run headlong into the "enemy" completly forgetting that my little army man is made of killable pixels rather than kevlar.

DH was so worried about the embarrassment factor, people would think it was him playing afterall, that he now only plays when I'm not home :o

I make DH do any gaming in the cellar room, as it interrupts family time me gorging on wine and spying on my perfect neighbour while pretending to watch tv but the noise rises up and drives me fucking mental. Although you're right OP its the added sound of him choking on crisps between "fucking get in there" and "av it".

in the past like last xmas have had to engage in sabotage. few snaps round the back or fiddling of wires will give you hours on entertainment. DH almost cried with frustration last time as I cracked open another bottle.

YAsoooooNBU!

That OP could be me!

Ha, you need to watch cod and then pretend you know everything about it i.e, 'oh yes i've prestiged 3 times already'
'no you haven't'
'yes i have huff, just because you never see me play it it doesn't mean I don't' and then make up a load of shit about assault rifles and sights.
I do love the sexbox though.
