Sex or Video Games

[Slime Slayer]

I was a little suprised at the reaction the best thread ever thread so...

[ARedLetterDay]

Video games help me relax.
Sex stresses me out.

[Slime Slayer]

I made my selection literally seconds after I made the topic. It put 2 votes instead of one. I think the polls my be succeptable to multiple clicks.

EDIT: Nevermind, I guess ARedLetterDay is the fastest gun in the west.

[joz]

Pfff! I'd rather play sex games.

Sex stresses me out.
You're doing it wrong then.

[ARedLetterDay]

It's enjoyable, don't get me wrong.
I'm 19, though, and the prospect of having a child at so young an age when I don't even have my GED or a steady job is very stressful. :P

@Steve, darn tootin'! Trained by Clint Eastwood.

I'm confused by the poll, do I choose the one that I would rather have, or would rather not have?

DailyTech - Quick Note: 1 in 10 Men Would Rather Have an iPad Than a Girlfriend (http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=24548)
I don't find that surprising at all.
25% of men would rather have a boyfriend than a girlfriend.
Of the 75% that are straight I would bet at least 10% would rather have a cheeseburger than a girlfriend.

For the poll.
A week of sex or a week of games, I'd choose sex.

Should this be moved to the pirate board?

I see what you mean. I choose the one I would give up.

[jim5cents]

Still, are we talking sex everyday or only once or twice in that week? If everyday, I'm taking sex

[Demon-Mask]

Speaking of the pirate board, how do I become a part of it?

Also, I don't know about the topic.
Haven't had sex, have played video games.
Video games fill quite a lot of my time.
But sex is biologically hardwired into us, and is important for the survival of the species.

OMG Again!? Fer frig sakes, it's plain english!! I just suck at asking questions I guess.

If that was a reference to me saying I was suprised, what I meant was I was suprised at the R.U. users reactions.

Move it if you wish, it was meant to be a maturish discussion, but if people wanna cut loose, then I don't mind if it gets moved.

[Demon-Mask]

For just a week, I'd more likely give up sex, based on fapping.

[Slime Slayer]

Actually, if poll questions can be edited, could someone put the word "no" in front of each option?

[Dudebro]

I edited it. I voted no video games. I go a week without playing them anyways and it's no big deal at all to me. I'd rather be having sex.

[Kugyince]

I gave up sex for 6 months during my wife's pregnancy, one week isn't anything to fret over.

Not only that but after 16 years together your priorities change a little. :P

Thanks DB.

I chose no sex because I'll usually only have sex a couple times a week, 30-45 minute sessions. I play vids pretty much everyday, usually for longer sessions.

My 12 years might have had some influence...:-\

[Blue Shoe 2]

I'm going to have to be blunt with you: even if you can't have sex, you've still got your hands...

[D.B. Cooper]

Put me in with the other long married couples. Add in three young (7,6,4) children and I go without sex for a week fairly often. I'd miss the games much more.

But because of the lack of opportunities for the hanky panky, if you changed the question to which one I'd rather do on any single night (which is what I thought the question was going to be when I saw the title), then sex is the easy call. If I'm in the middle of a game and the wife gives me the call, game over.

[Kong]

If that was a reference to me saying I was suprised, what I meant was I was suprised at the R.U. users reactions.It was not. I was just referring to the link.

[warghoul]

I don't know that's still kind of sex would that be allowed?

[Slime Slayer]

It's allowed I think, If pullin your pepperidge was'nt allowed, I would change my vote.

[Dudebro]

I think people are getting the wrong impression. I didn't take the poll to mean which one could you not go without for a week. I just took it to be which one would you rather go without for a week. I would be fine without either or both for a week or more. I just prefer sex over video games.

[Demon-Mask]

I could easily go a long, long time without either of them.
If I had to choose one that I had to get rid of for a week, it would be sex.
I mean, I've made it eighteen years without it at this point.
If I've never experienced it, not experiencing it for a week wouldn't be a change in any way.

[DrunkN]

i am 12 and what is this

[jim5cents]

even if you can't have sex, you've still got your hands...

But if you have no hands?!?!?! Then I guess you are stuck with the Kinect...

[Mareeps]

I'll take the video games! At least the games never need jewelry.

[KATZ]

depend on the game brawl XD like retrieving jewlry in skyrim

[nikegirl2012]

in my current situation... i'd rather play video games than have sex... in a very different situation, i'd probably choose sex over video games.

[Dudebro]

If this poll wasn't on a video game site the results would be different.

[sabby]

In my opinion, those of you who have not experienced sex, probably shouldn't vote on this topic as it skews the results.

Between the two choices, the games are thrown to the way-side if the missus is in the mood, without hesitation.

[RU Joe]

Depends on what game we're talking about here.
On second thought never mind.
Give me the game.

Why?

1. Games are always in the mood, and never ask if you think they look fat.
2. Games offer a wide range of experiences and generally lack inhibitions of any kind.
3. Games don't discriminate by age, sex, appearance, finances, personality, etc.
4. Games hold no expectations of you.
5. What, you need more? - go play some games!!

[Kong]

3. Games don't discriminate by age, sex, appearance, finances, personality, etc.

Fixed.

There are games children can't play and games adults wouldn't play. Games geared towards boys. Expensive games. And games designed for specific personalities.

[jim5cents]

3. Games don't discriminate by age, sex, appearance, finances, personality, etc.


Now totally fixed, games may not have discriminated against me, but like chicks and sex, I have totally discriminated against them based on their appearance.

[Slime Slayer]

There is that whole thing where kinect would'nt recognize the black guy.

[Demon-Mask]

Yeah, true.
And don't "pay to win" type F2P games discriminate on income?

[warghoul]

Yeah, true.
And don't "pay to win" type F2P games discriminate on income?
That's true once someone on here posted about "Battle Dawn" $300 and many hours later I was a legend... a dirty backstabbing top 5 world ranked legend.
P.S. I still haven't voted on this because I don't have go without either. I thought about it and I cant fathom a situation where Id have to choose.

[Dudebro]

You really spent 300 on a ftp MMO? That game doesn't even look that interesting. You could've got a high class lady of the night with 300 bucks.

You should honestly see what people donate on CT at times, 300 is nothing o.o

[Dudebro]

Donating to a website is one thing, paying to play a free to play MMO is another.

Class means nothing to Warghoul. Besides $3oo aint much I've spent many times that out partying for one night many times. This was a whole month of gaming.

[Dudebro]

I'm just surprised. I've never known someone who blew more than a couple bucks on a MMO, besides subscriptions.

[Tails]

CollecToons is F2P and there's users whose donated 2grand themselves and brags about it.

[Demon-Mask]

You donate 2000 dollars to a website, you get to brag.

[Tails]

You donate 2000 dollars to a website, you get to brag.
Duh, my point is $300 on a game is nothing and DB shouldn't think it's so bad.

[Dudebro]

You're missing the point. Donating to a website is not the same as buying in game stuff in a free MMO. I'm not gonna keep going off topic to explain it but there is a very distinct difference.

[Tails]

How by donate you get exclusive benefits that you'd get in a ftp as well.

[Demon-Mask]

The difference is quite clear.

[Kugyince]

You'd hardly get "high class" for $300. You'd get some ugly street walker for that much. Add another zero to that if you want high class.

So how much for a night with the Tenbo?

[Kugyince]

Around the world? $42.50

[Dudebro]

Well I guess no one can claim I know anything about hiring hookers. I'm ok with that.

[warghoul]

Around the world? $42.50
Sign me up!
P.S. I'm a good tipper.

@DB your not far off I got a nice looking lady of the night for 300 once. though I'm not big city living like Tenser and I can't vouch for her cleanliness in the VD department and I guess I was far from sober so maybe she wasn't classy, she was still hot though!

[Demon-Mask]

I'm guessing she wasn't 'high-class' at $300.
I honestly don't know much about how much prostitutes charge, though.

[Slime Slayer]

I was alway under the understanding that 20 bucks was cheap, 100-200 was standard, 200+ expensive. I have no idea where I'm getting these figures.

[Demon-Mask]

Maybe you're getting your figures from ten or twenty years ago.
I mean, inflation has driven prices of everything up.

So doubly so.

[Slime Slayer]

Actually I think that I got those numbers from Jim's mom, so those are bible belt figures.

[Kugyince]

High-end or escort goes for up to $5500 an hour.

Middle-end or call girl, $500-$3000 a night.

Low-end streetwalker, $50-$300

All depending on the girl and what you want.

[Demon-Mask]

Tenser, how do you know this?
Regardless, the numbers don't surprise me all that much.

[Kugyince]

Better to know and not need it than to need it and not know.

[jim5cents]

LOL, when I read the first post, I started doing the Canadian exchange rate so I could figure out what insulting price your mom charges, but you beat me to the punch.

When in doubt, we could always reference Hollywood for the going rates.

I think Richard Gere got Julia Roberts for a week for 3000 grand. But she is your basic streetwalker.

Meanwhile, Jennifer Gardner plays a classy hooker, gets 1000 from Leo for a night in catch me if you can.

[Slime Slayer]

Then you got Indecent Proposal, which sets the bar at 1 million dollars.

[jim5cents]

Or Caddyshack which lowers it to 14 dollars

14 Dollars The Hard Way - YouTube

There's also the Filipino massage therapists which is mid ranged
