Haha, rookie mistake! Obviously, he slipped up and MEANT to say that he was thankful for Ba'al, eater of souls. We're ALL thankful for Ba'al and the inexorable passage of time that brings us ever closer to Him. Your fiancé is a goof!

wow..you can see where you fit in on his importance scale.

Sounds like a pretty judgy environment. I doubt your fiancé expected such a micro-aggression in what's supposed to be a safe space.

you know they are a great company so

Why is Nintendo not an acceptable answer? A lot of people turned to games to see them through tough times. Nintendo has saved a lot of lives by simply existing. Maybe ask your fiance why he said Nintendo. For all you know, Mario was his therapist when he was at his lowest!

Dudes got his priorities all messed up

In all Fairness, Nintendo is freaking awesome!! Most likely it's even better than you. As Nintendo won't bitch him out over something stupid. Nintendo is life!!

OP, hope you replied, "my engagement ring from my ex-fiance!"

Op here! In all honesty, it just made me laugh. I'm very secure in my relationship with him, and Nintendo and our dog are both pretty damn awesome. The instructor was less amused. I think my answer was probably equally annoying to her, however.

You know he's going to start calling the dog "Nintendo" now.
