  • Weakest reason to stop/pause a game

    Ok we've had RAH's smokes. Ming and I probably lead the league for falling asleep at the computer. But last nights game had to be the best.

    IN the middle of the game, my wife comes running in , in tears panicking. She somehow lost her very very espensive, soon to be insured wedding ring.

    Well after searching the entire house for 30 mins while RAH and Barano anxiously awaited my return, my wife came to the conclusion that either somehow it ended up down the garbage disposal or flushed down the toilet. So I told her we would get a plumber tomorrow, and in the meantime not to use any plumbing devices and proceeded, to my wife's chagrin, to continue our game.

    then, after 10 more mins of crying and being told how inconsiderate I was for playing Civ at such a dire moment, the ring was found.

    Where was it? you may ask. Well apparently my wife was adjusting her bra. And in the process of that realignment it fell off and was lodged between her ample breasts.

    Now try and beat that one

      I always love it when we've done everything we possible can at the time and finally give up the search, we're insensitive because we go back to our computer games. So even when they find it between their breasts, it's our fault even though we didn't put it there.

      Besides smoke and grab a beer breaks, the only other ones are usually "SPIDER PATROL" . Especially amusing from my daughter who can totally crush a males hearts, but won't harm a bug.

              I think your daughter needs to be liberated. Mingapulco is no place to raise a daughter.

                  Tell him to stick with it - It takes awhile to get used to.

                      I wouldn't consider that a "weak" reason

                      Congrats and good luck!

                        If I was using that excuse, it would be weak, and a miracle. But for you, acceptable. Congrats.

                          Yeah... nobody would believe it if we oldsters used that one...

                          We would have to modify it by saying.
                          "My daughter is in labor, and I need to go out and kill some boy"
