yeah the only time you'd do that is if she never let you do anything and was excessively controlling and bitchy about everything, in which you'd do it just to piss her off but at that point in a relationship an xbox is the least of your worries!

Why do you want a XBOX? It's just a bunch of electronic components inside a plastic case. I think you can survive without it.

Sometimes people tell me things that are so absurd I have no idea what to say.

My dad once told me that it's better to be fat because you have more chances of surviving a surgery if you're fat. Then if I try to argue with whatever he says he always say something like this "Who told you this? It's a lie". It's a good thing I don't see him anymore.

My grandmother (my dad's mother) once told me that my tortoise had laid eggs, and that she ate the eggs (it's a male tortoise, so I don't think that happened).

Debates are useless because you're not going to convince anyone of anything.

quoted for posterity. why unban drfunk when we have inri?

yea i'm willing to raise a family and spend the rest of my life with you but get your own shit heh

except that i am not a stupid catholic and i think there is always the possibility of divorce "heh"

wait what? this makes no sense dude. you marry someone because you want to spend the rest of your life with them. that's the sentiment you should feel before even considering getting married. if you say "well i can always divorce you so yeah lets get married fuck it!" then you are fucked up dude and i hope no woman ever has the misfortune of marrying you.

I think Marmot is a girl. I could be wrong but pretty sure????




edit: Wait that's Mamamack

except that i am not a stupid catholic and i think there is always the possibility of divorce "heh"

fffff what the fuck are you talking about marmot nobody even mentioned catholics.  this is why you're annoying, man; you seriously cannot post without dragging that shit into the topic, ALWAYS.  nobody said not to recognize the possibility of divorce, but rather, that you probably shouldn't be getting married if you're opposed to SHARING THINGS because that's kind of the entire fucking point, and if you're going into a marriage thinking "prolly gonna get a divorce heh FUCK CATHOLICS and also she can get her own goddamn job" then it's probably doomed from the start.  i understand not assuming you're absolutely definitely going to spend the rest of your life with someone, but yeah very few marriages will ever work like that, sorry!  whether you acknowledge the possibility of divorce or not, the idea at the time of the marriage should be that you want to be with them forever, not that you're just waiting until you get tired of them and then *divorce*

hahaha oh wait i forgot only stupid catholics want to raise families or to have lasting marriages sorry marmot my mistake

Seriously though, having a girl dominate you so you can't do anything is the worst. I've had it happen to me and you definitely start to hold a secret grudge against them which is pretty bad for a relationship!

i wonder how this topic would have gone if it was phrased a little differently:

my pregnant wife doesn't want me to spend money on a 360, she is very irrational

except that's not the point at all since her not wanting him to get the 360 isn't the even remotely the problem or the subject of the topic


climbtree why do you make posts like this??

I mean it was a sarcastic reply because a person who doesn't want to "deal with that shit" probably isn't even ready for marriage to begin with.  It was a ridiculous post to make.

Anyway, you didn't even explain how divorce really related to what people were saying.  No one in the topic was even talking about divorce not being an option, or acting as if marriage needs to be this huge, romantic endeavor; we were saying that the point is KIND OF a unification of your lives so not wanting to share your funds or whatever comes off as pretty self-serving and immature, two qualities that probably play large roles in ruining most relationship.  You're saying that there are other reasons to marry, and there are, but none of the things you said preclude going into it with a commitment to the relationship and the assumption that it's going to last (this doesn't mean you shouldn't take precautions, though).  So no, it doesn't have anything to do with it at all because the things we are talking about aren't exclusive to judeo-christian tradition in the least.

You always come into topics relating to this stuff with the same tiresome ideas and statements, and it's not even as if they're wrong or misinformed or anything, it's just it's you are very one-note in the way you do things.  It's like you're just looking for a chance to rail against capitalism/religion/whatever else you hate.


btw if you could tie some marxist theory into this then that'd be just great
