my girlfriend thinks its strange i cant keep away from a small slender tube full of sweating men
ive tried to convince her its the gameplay i love but she just raises her eyebrows and pops off to bed!!!!!

theres always time for the good stuff before and after a patrol...besides when did a u boat commander have his wife/gf interrupting him during a submerged attack!!!!
better off in bed methinks!!!:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
My wife calls it "sink 'em game" and rolls her eyes. I mostly play while she's on the couch 'watching' HGTV through her eyelids.
Last year we moved the computer desk from the bedroom to the dining room - right behind the couch. If she's sleeping on the couch while I'm playing behind her that's her problem. Sometimes I use headphones though just so I can hear more stuff without bothering anyone (or hearing the same episode of House Hunters for the 14th time).
Almost 23yrs here, too, Jimbuna.

When my wife complains about the noise I look at her with a straight face and say...

"yeah we do need to discuss the noise as a matter of fact... We are in the middle of a depth charge attack and we are rigged for silent running here... The rest of the crew and I would appreciate your silence."

She just stands there looking at me

"in serious, do you want to be responsible for tommy finding us?!"

Still looking at me she says "who's tommy?"

I respond "shhh I'm serious! I Weill not hesitate to launch you out of a torpedo tube as surface debris if you don't keep the noise down."

This is another one of those threads where GWX is responsible for all kinds of relationship problems isn't it???

There's been a few of those lately.

Now if I ever meet a girl who I overhear saying, "I think U-boats are sexy!"

We're getting married!

Till then I will keep flirting with nurses.

That being said, I kinda dread the question, "Well what do you like to do when you aren't working?"

I'll probably choke on that one a bit, because trying to explain my little adventures here... would prolly go over like a lead balloon.

"Well, erm....cough* I travel the oceans of the world, often confronting the greatest challenges mother nature can put before you in the form of the worst weather imaginable, and in the face of terrible adversity, I try to surmount the harshest odds seldom experienced by any mere mortal.

"So what exactly is it you do" ?

"Can I get you another drink" <grin>

Is there any mention of a SH3 marital liability clause in that GWX manual? :hmm:

Any pre-nuptual patrol mission disclaimers? :rotfl:
