Today, I realized just how bad my 28-year-old husband's gamer rage is when I came home to a smashed TV. This is the second TV in three months that he's destroyed. FML

Today, my husband destroyed our brand new TV in a fit of rage, all because the Dallas Cowboys lost. I've only made 1 out of 18 payments on it so far. FML

Today, my four year old got mad that he couldn't find his favorite character on the Wii. So, he decided to smash the Wii remote into my $700 LCD TV, shattering the screen. That was the only TV in the house, and the $80 service plan I bought doesn't cover accidental damage. FML

Today, I realized that my husband has a video games addiction. I am currently pregnant; he brought us to the same country he's in so we can finally live together, only for me to witness him being glued to his laptop all day and all night playing WoW. He's forgotten I even existed. FML

Today, my boyfriend got frustrated trying to take my entertainment center into the basement, for the kids' game room. It didn't fit, thanks to the horrible design of the house, so he Spartan-kicked it down, breaking it into 15 pieces. FML

Today, I bought myself a brand-new 52" flatscreen. It was only in my house for 2 hours before my toddler had a tantrum, threw a toy right into the screen and wrecked it beyond repair. I paid to have a nice TV for 2 hours. FML

Today, I left my husband in charge of the house for a day. When I returned, I saw him gaming through the window, so I stormed in and yelled at him. Then, my eyes adjusted, and I saw the neatly folded laundry, clean kitchen, vacuumed rugs, and my son, who was asleep until I woke him. Whoops. FML

Today, when my new boyfriend told me he liked playing games, he meant a 60" TV with a professional gaming chair in the middle of his living room, and 48-hour gaming marathons where he totally ignores me, refuses to sleep or shower, and only has energy drinks and cheerios. FML

Today, I discovered my husband hadn't stopped his dangerous gambling habit, even though he'd promised to stop after I caught him the first time two months ago. I'm hurt, sad, confused, and angry. FML

Today, when I had a go at my husband for spending way too much time in front of the TV, he pointed the remote control at me while miming turning down the volume in order to make me shut up. FML

Today, I came home upset about the sexism in my work place. I just wanted to be alone, but my husband insisted we talk about it. I noticed he kept looking over and one of his hands was moving. He was playing video games the entire time I was spilling my guts. FML

Your husband has major issues. Who would get that mad over a video game, and this is the THIRD television he's broken? WTF, if he's going to act childish, treat him as such - no more TV or games for him. That's just scary. Imagine what he'd do to you if you piss him off like his game did. You both need help - him for obvious reasons and you for your own safety (and for buying more TVs for him to destroy and staying with him).

And you didn't file divorce papers after the first smashed TV? Hint: Smashing TVs is a sign of serious rage issues. Get out of the marriage, upgrade to a grown-ass man.

People with rage that bad shouldn't be allowed to play games, they should be getting treatment ¬_¬

It's a freaking game!!! WTF is wrong with people today? I don't remember gamer rage over PAC man, asteroids, pong, and space invaders! Get on an Atari, and start having some FUN! As in, playing a game, so it's not serious, it's FUN!

I say record him when he plays. When it gets over 10 million views(at least) on youtube, maybe then you'll realize what I've just done for you.

Heard a story on the radio this morning about 2 grown brothers who got into a domestic disturbance over a game of Madden. It seems one brother was staying with the other because the second brother's house was closer to the first brother's anger management classes. Police were called.
