For everyone going out tonight

[The Chef]

Im going to get there at about 11:50, I waited in line for 2+ hours for The Dark Knight and that was the first and last time I wait in a long line for anything. They cant sell it until midnight so I have nothing to gain by getting there sooner, its completely paid off and waiting for me so no biggie.

I got the Collectors Edition preordered and already paid in full. So I plan on taking off in about 10mins, and reaching my local Gamecrazy by midnight, walk right in, and pick it up.

All three Gamestops near me are closed and not opening until tomorrow. No midnight madden release for me. Unless Blockbuster or Super Walmart are selling it.

I play on leaving around midnight or a little earlier.

But I have to say, I really feel bad for any of you men/boys who are worried about things like if "the girls" will see you.

Put some faith in who you are as a person, and ignore what anyone else thinks. Especially when it's something trivial like if a girl would see you standing in line at midnight.

Just remember, the more you are worried about trivial matters like that, the less time you're focused on things that matter. Like reading, and educating yourself about history.

Girls and Madden are hobbies, and the second they become a negative more than a positive, you need to go do something else until you are more rational.

See now these type of posts are terrible. Your "normal" life? Just because your wife isn't understanding of your video game hobby it isn't "normal" to go get it at midnight?

I personally feel posts like these should receive infractions.

Or maybe I should get one for questioning the superiority of this guy with the "normal" life.

At least you don't let your wife boss you around.

Good point. If you do not have a relationship where you can make that type of action provided you have enough money to justify the expense, then you have issues in your relationship that you need to work on.
