The wife? :laugh2:

I got mine in a corner though. She loaded a bunch of her crap on the table and no one's been able to eat on it for a week. I have every intention of leveraging that when I get another cab.

heh i live with my twin brother. Got out of a 3 and a half year serious relationship and I dont plan on doin that again any time soon. So no woman to tell me what to do. Ultimate freedom and casual relationships are the way to go if you plan on living in an arcade lol

Apartment? LOL I think you missed a step. You first buy a house then you fill up the basement with that crap.

Good for you!

Live the dream, and get a French Maid to tidy the place.   :cheers:

All of your "relationships" will be casual with that many games in such a small place! I s'pose your brother will never leave you so you have that going for you, however, I suggest that if you happen to find that lucky person who could be "the one".....you don't bring her back to your place until after the wedding!  :laugh2:
