Oh thats awesome Luke. I am currently fighting my company to let me transfer to TN. It should go through fine but its a joke that I have to. I give it six months once I get up there before I jump ship completely - well depending on the cost of the house.

Frown: Learning a good friend of mine talked shit about me behind my back...get this...for my Rock Band performance.

Dirt off my shoulder, but apparently her comment when I was in the bathroom was "He doesn't even try to give a good fucking performance and his voice is shit".

I scored a perfect 100% on "difficult" or whatever the most difficult level is on "Whacha Want?" while doing everything but jumping in slow motion to mimic each of the B-Boys.

Just got off the horn with a buddy who said "It's about having fun and she acts like she gets paid to play the game. Kind of surprised your wife didn't say anything to you". Probably because she knows I don't care.

Sucks because the girl's husband is an awesome stony in-di-vi-dual, but no one wants to hang out with his wife.

Picture this: Me saying "I can't play drums with my left hand" and her responding with "Ever think about getting a hook?". Then me walking into a different room to compose myself while she screams at me "Don't you make me look bad in my own house. You're the one with a problem!".

Neither my friends nor I could believe it, but when I'm with a group of friends, I'd rather not start drama as it isn't my weekend, it's everyone's weekend. Not worth my time to ruin a good time, not worth my time to get upset.

What does bother me is that her behavior has caused a rift between my usual group of friends. I see our usual party of eight turning into a party of six fairly soon. As my friend stated, "Might be dirt of your shoulder, but I'm sick and tired of even being near her and if she talked to me that way in my house behind my back or not, I would kick her the fuck out".

I hope everyone is sitting down, and if you aren't stop typing while standing, bad for the metacarpals: but, I think I'm too nice.

Yeah, Luke, but...well, a hook would be pretty cool.

I sure as hell wouldn't hang out with her if she's nasty like that. Sucks if the dude is cool, but she needs to not be allowed around to piss in the punch. I've had diminished contact with certain friends because their significant other was an ass. Sucks, but who wants the extra stress? That can't be good for the relationship either.

But in case of further issues... arm cannon. :mrgreen:

Plus, if you got that job, you could joke about being a drunken pirate.

That's the crux. Not the arm cannon, losing a friend because his wife is "hateful". Her husband and I go back, and I'm not one to turn my back on a friend but at the same time I can only take so much. And heaven's to Betsy if I do decide to give her my opinion I may possibly lose some friends (I kinda tend to go all out).

And you guys are silly. As a double grad of ECU, I am a pirate. The hook would be waaaaaaaaay too meta. Arm cannon? Played out, couldn't be easy to clean, and I travel a lot, so no. A reconstructive survey with five middle fingers is the only way to go.

Isn't the solution to get better at Rock Band? 100% score or not, your fans are wanting more effort.

Seems like a no-brainer to me.
