Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, my husband started a conversation with, "In Pokémon…" and ended the same conversation with "…and that's why we should divorce." FML
Today, I came home upset about the sexism in my work place. I just wanted to be alone, but my husband insisted we talk about it. I noticed he kept looking over and one of his hands was moving. He was playing video games the entire time I was spilling my guts. FML
Today, my husband bought a Pokémon game and started playing it in bed. It's like I'm married to an eight year-old boy. Why can't I have a normal man, who reads books or even plays normal games for an adult? I can barely look at him without feeling ashamed for settling with such an overgrown child. FML
Today, my husband was sick so we ordered out and watched a baseball game. He dozed while I did chores and listened. Near the end of the game, I sat down with my phone to look at pics of the protests. He told me to put my phone down. He was furious. I "don't respect him" and I "make him feel small in our marriage." FML
Today, my boyfriend got angry because I laughed when he asked me if he should retire from being a Pokemon Trainer. He was serious. He's also 21. FML
Today, as soon as I got home, my husband said he was hungry and that I needed to cook. I flipped my shit and yelled at him for a good half hour. Later, he pulled out his phone and showed me videos of me doing the exact thing to him, asking him to do things the second he walked in the door. FML
Today, I left my husband in charge of the house for a day. When I returned, I saw him gaming through the window, so I stormed in and yelled at him. Then, my eyes adjusted, and I saw the neatly folded laundry, clean kitchen, vacuumed rugs, and my son, who was asleep until I woke him. Whoops. FML
Today, my husband and son ganged up on me in a game of Mario Kart. I threw the game down and stormed off. The last thing I saw was them high-fiving and yelling "RAGE QUIT" and laughing hysterically. They will both suffer for this. FML
Today, I beat my boyfriend in a video game. He promptly dumped me and told me to leave. FML
Today, I found my boyfriend playing games when we have 5 million things to do, but the bastard picked me up, put me in the hall, shut the door in my face, and barricaded it with the sofa. I texted him, threatening to break up unless he opened the door; he texted back to leave my key behind when I left. FML

You know that marrying a child is illegal, right?

Walk up to him tonight, get down on your knees and say "I choose you". Then pull it out and give him a bj. Afterwards tell him, "And quit bitching about Pokemon".

Aren't all girlfriends a second mom to their boyfriends and/or husbands.

Couples that play together storm out on each other.... Wait a minute I'm not sure that's how it's supposed to go

Sigh...why do my fellow men have to act like such immature jerks?

If you're bothered by other dudes' attitude, make an actual effort to /not/ be an immature jerk like your "fellow men" and quit your whining about dudes who you feel superior to due to minor behavioural differences.

So you were holding the console and he was narrating what to do? Does that strike anyone else as odd? Unless he was desperately trying to multitask or teaching you how to play, I don't understand this situation.

Okay, I know Pokemon is popular and all the rage, and if anyone dares speak anything bad about it the rabid fanbase comes with pitchforks and torches (as shown in this comments section already, sheesh). But damn, the dude needs to chill. He got that livid over it? Sorry OP, that sucks. (Come forth, downvoters, and prove the point I made earlier!!)
