Today, my husband recited to me the name and model number of every single weapon in the game Doom, along with what they did and roughly where to find them. Last month, he forgot my birthday. We've been married for 6 years; he hasn't played Doom in at least 10. FML

Today, it's my husband's birthday. I tried to buy him a new computer game, to which he complained. I cooked him steak and his favorite cake, and got him another nice gift instead. Hours later, his online friends bought him a new game and it was the only time I saw him genuinely smile. FML

Today, I realized that my husband has a video games addiction. I am currently pregnant; he brought us to the same country he's in so we can finally live together, only for me to witness him being glued to his laptop all day and all night playing WoW. He's forgotten I even existed. FML

Today, I found out my husband doesn't love me. At all. He told me this while playing Call of Duty with his friends with his microphone on. FML

Today, as he has all day for the last 3 days, my husband has been playing Cyberpunk 2077. However, it's my birthday. When I mentioned this fact, I was told to just walk the 4 miles to the store and buy a cake, "if it matters so much." I have celiac and he spent our grocery money on the game. FML

Today, when my husband asked me what the password to my new computer is, I told him it was the month and year of our marriage. He couldn't figure out the password. FML

Today, I felt frisky, so I did my hair and put on make-up and some lingerie. I walked into the living room, where my husband was playing a video game. He glanced up, said, "Oh, for fuck's sake." and made me wait nearly 15 minutes for him to reach a save-game point. FML

Today, it dawned on me that the most romantic thing my husband has done in the last three years, was a put a wedding ring on his xbox avatar. FML

Today, I came home in a really good mood, and I greeted my husband with a grin and a "Hi, babe!" He just muttered, "Why can't you just DIE?" and continued playing his video game. FML

Today, I realized just how bad my 28-year-old husband's gamer rage is when I came home to a smashed TV. This is the second TV in three months that he's destroyed. FML

If you think he loves Doom that much, but has somehow not played in ten years, you likely do not even know your own hubby.

If it matters, the birthday event has occurred only 6 times since your marriage. He has played doom over million times. Go figure.

Oh boo hoo, he remembers everything about a great past time of his early years, so what? There is absolutely no relation between this and the ability to remember dates. Of course it's not "YDI", but most surely it isn't FYL either. Mostly should be WDYEC? (Why do you even care?)

Instill remember every hidden area, item and shortcuts in super Mario 1 and 3 on regular Nintendo and I haven't played that in forever. It's muscle memory....and in today's world most people don't remember dates, that's what Facebook is for...

I still remember the infinite ammo cheat from Republic Commando. Pause, Y, Y, X, Down, RT, LT, RT, Up. Your birthday has only happened a couple of times in his life; Doom is forever.
