Read this article and discuss!

What would YOU do if you were in the husband's position? And if you were the wife would you even THINK of doing anything like that? And after it's all been done, how would you handle it? Would you regret marrying the girl? How would you feel about it?

it's a pr0n site
Anyways, it's hilarious and it really sucks for the husband

 

[Bambi]

I think that's hilarious xD

Course if I was him, id have her head on a stick and not talk to her again til she replaced it

If I was her...as amusing as it is, there's just no way I could sell ANY possesion of my husband (lol) UNLESS he deserved it like, he destroyed something of mine and refused to cough up to replace it. that'd teach him

 

[Serah]

Okay, first of all I'd never steal my husband's PS3 and sell it. o_o I'd never sell anything of his unless he directly TOLD me to do it, then I would. That's just the utmost disrespect right there! If he did that to me, I'd shove his ass out the door and make him go buy another one. He'd not be allowed to step foot back into the house until he came back home with a brand new ps3 and all the games that were sold too. some of those comments though are outrageous. o.o I'd never go so far as to say I'd actually kill him...that's just crazy.

I wouldn't regret marrying him either because I love him...but you can bet your ass I'd be really really REALLY pissed off for a really really REALLY long time. Oh and also, if the dude was gaming and not paying attention to her and that was her problem? There's a simple solution: all she'd have to do is just take off all her clothes and climb on top of him. That'd divert his attention right quick!

If I were in the husband's position...quite frankly I'd be pretty fucking mad. Not so much that it was a PS3 being sold, but that she'd actually take any of his property and sell it without him knowing about it. And I'd be worried about the direction of the marriage, too. If she has so little respect for him to do something like that, and is willing to go behind his back and do things like that...well, I'd start to have serious doubts about what kind of person I'd just married.

I can't imagine what kind of a bitch she must be to sell his stuff just to watch his reaction. I don't know why you'd do that to someone, much less your new husband. Her being uncomfortable with his gaming is no excuse to sell his stuff without him knowing. She knew he was a gamer and still chose to marry him, if it really bothered him that much she could have just talked to him about it.

Still, some of the reactions people had are kinda funny:

“What if this were a beloved pet - could you say ‘It’s just a pet after all’?”

Pets are not hardware

“This is just the worst sort of thing you could do…”

I'm sure she could have done alot worse...but that is definitely not a good way to kick off your marriage.

“This lady is going to become one of those mothers who just toss out their children’s manga and collectibles.”

Totally agree with that one. She seems like she has no respect for other people's stuff, so if she doesn't like it she'll toss it.

tl;dr he married a bitch

Haha, a friend of mine linked it to me. XD I guess we all know where he goes on the internet.

Yeah if I was that dude I'd be like...Why in the world have I married this horrible bitch?

 

[Jack's Smirking Revenge]

I think that's pretty pathetic for people to be getting so worked up over it. It's only a PS3 for christ sake, it's not as if it'll kill him to be without it for a while. And if he has to have one, then he can buy another.

Ok, I'll give my thoughts on the matter.

I'm a little curious to know how many games were sold with the system, it says it was for the PS3 and games. I think a used PS3 for $200 is reasonable, but including games that's a little tougher to take. As a proud owner of a PS3, I think my system would go for $200, but I also have about 10 games, now that price is cheap.

I think it's pretty bad that she would do this without consulting him. I mean just for lulz, what good did that prove? If she would have talked to him about it (and I'm sure he'd disagree) and did it anyways, at least he would have known she was dissatisfied. I think not telling him was worse than actually selling it, I mean they are married after all, and newly married at that.

If he was a gaming type, then he certainly has a right to be pissed off about it. He's probably regreting his decision to marry her now.

As for my thoughts from both views:

If I were her and I had issues with the fact that he spent some time gaming, I would try to resolve that issue with him verbally. Even if I didn't like the person, I would never go as far as to sell it on him. I think it was a very amoral way to go about resolving the issue.

If I were him, I would be upset about the fact that she did that behind my back. But I would feel like, she could have sold my car or my house or something, so it really could be worse. Like I said before, if my PS3 were sold, it would be the reasoning behind it that would anger me, not the fact the my PS3 is gone, I can do without that. If she sold something I needed like a car or house, then there would be hell to pay.

But it's not exclusively porn

How exactly is it hilarious though? I like laughing at other people just as much as the next guy, but the thought of someone I loved, who I had just married, turning around and selling my shit for the lulz doesn't really strike me as amusing at all.

Yeah if I was that dude I'd be like...Why in the world have I married this horrible bitch?

Honestly, what kind of person does that? It makes me wonder why she married him, or why he married her. Any rational person who had a problem with their partner's hobby (be it gaming or golf or whatever) would either talk with them about it, learn to deal with it, or find out more about the hobby so they can enjoy it with their partner. What the hell is she gonna do when there's something else about him she doesn't like?

But selling someone's stuff because you don't like their hobby...not cool. Actually I wonder if he could prosecute her for that, it doesn't seem like it would be a particularly legal thing to do.

I think that's pretty pathetic for people to be getting so worked up over it. It's only a PS3 for christ sake, it's not as if it'll kill him to be without it for a while. And if he has to have one, then he can buy another.

You just missed the point entirely. Good job.

 

[Jack's Smirking Revenge]

Well yeah, she went behind his back and sold his property without his knowledge blah blah blah. But if her selling his console is getting his so worked up, then he needs to realise that there are more important things in life.

 

[Serah]

Hmmm I think it'd depend on how much it cost him to pay for the PS3 and all the games in the first place. I mean when the PS3 first came out, it wasn't exactly cheap and neither are the games, it still really isn't all that cheap yet. Not every family has over $700 to just blow on a PS3 and games. PS3 is also a blu-ray player so for all we know he could've had blu-ray movies as well. I think I'd be more upset that I just lost out on over x-amount of money that was spent on it, rather than the console and games itself. That's a lot of money to just go down the drain like that and only getting $200 out of a used console+games...=/ Do you see where I'm going with this?

 

[Shu]

I'd put her in her place. Nuff said. But then again I don't think you would catch me with a woman as ignorant and hateful as this either, so not not really an issue, now is it.

I wouldn't exactly move out or break up or nothing, but I would teach her a lesson. (not of the physical kind, you psychos)

 

[Rockman X]

Well yeah, she went behind his back and sold his property without his knowledge blah blah blah. But if her selling his console is getting his so worked up, then he needs to realise that there are more important things in life.

So if you were in his shoes, and you just married someone, and she took your property and sold it just to see your reaction...you would just go "oh, well there are more important things in life." You would actually be okay with your wife, someone you should be able to trust, taking your stuff and selling it when you're not around?

It actually is important to be able to trust someone not to go behind your back and do things like that. It is important to have enough respect for your partner that you solve problems with them by talking like a rational human being, not going to extreme measures like she did.

 

[Jack's Smirking Revenge]

Well yeah, I'd see the funny side of it and laugh. I'd be a bit annoyed, but at the end of the day I really wouldn't be all that bothered.

 

[Estella Vanilla]

If they're married and don't have a prenup I'm pretty sure she can do whatever the hell she wants. Marriage pools everything together, so if there is a divorce it's split in half (generally). So technically, I guess that was her PS3 too, even though she didn't buy it.

But that is really a great way to break trust in a marriage. YAY WE'RE MARRIED I'M GONNA SELL ALL UR SHITTTT.

 

[Scarlet]

I would be raging if this were to happen to me. If someone were to do this to me who I thought I can trust and knew for years, I would go crazy.

No matter if it was a PS3 for not, spending a lot of money on a hobby and then having being taken away from you is like having your heart get ripped out. Everyone has something that they enjoy doing. Video games or not but it's just the principle of what she did.

How would she like it she her husband took her most expensive shoes, clothes, or perfumes and sold them? What she did was so low. No matter how much you dislike your partner's hobby let them indulge, otherwise you're just a selfish cunt who doesn't let their loved ones have fun. He shouldn't have married her and she shouldn't married him since she disliked his video game hobby that much to do what she did. No wonder why divorce rates are so high....

 

[Six]

I ROFL-ed, literally.

I dunno I just think it's so damn funny. I didn't even look at the link, 'cause my laptop is being crap, but "Wife sells Husband's PS3 for Lulz" Is just too damn funny...

 

[Lunatic Pandora]

What she did was very stupid, there certainly was no need for doing such a thing. If I was in his shoes I would be really, really mad. I mean, I just married someone I thought I could trust, someone I thought would be happy with me, and then she comes to me and says o hai I sold ur PS3 fur teh lulz nao all the attenshuns goes to me, kthnx! Seriously.

I could think of divorce. There's no way I could trust someone like that for the rest of my life. I'm not saying videogames are my life and I care for no one, I'm just saying that it's difficult to trust someone who sells my possessions, things I bought with my money, behind my back.

That's stupid. It's a ridiculous way to call for attention.

 

[Rockman X]

Well yeah, I'd see the funny side of it and laugh. I'd be a bit annoyed, but at the end of the day I really wouldn't be all that bothered.

*Finds someone awesome*

*Marries said person*

*Person he thought was awesome sells his shit without his permission*

"Oh that's okay honey, you can sell my personal stuff, I'm not all that bothered by it."

Yep, realistic scenario right there.

If they're married and don't have a prenup I'm pretty sure she can do whatever the hell she wants. Marriage pools everything together, so if there is a divorce it's split in half (generally). So technically, I guess that was her PS3 too, even though she didn't buy it.

But that is really a great way to break trust in a marriage. YAY WE'RE MARRIED I'M GONNA SELL ALL UR SHITTTT.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that...wow, sucks for him. I wonder if he actually knew she was like that beforehand, I can't imagine he would have.

No matter if it was a PS3 for not, spending a lot of money on a hobby and then having being taken away from you is like having your heart get ripped out. Everyone has something that they enjoy doing. Video games or not but it's just the principle of what she did.

Exactly. If your husband is a golfer, and you don't like it, you don't grab all his golf clubs and stuff and peddle them off. If your wife loves shoes and has a giant collection in her closet, you don't take them and give them all to Goodwill. It's a matter of having respect for a person.

How would she like it she her husband took her most expensive shoes, clothes, or perfumes and sold them? What she did was so low. No matter how much you dislike your partner's hobby let them indulge, otherwise you're just a selfish cunt who doesn't let their loved ones have fun. He shouldn't have married her and she shouldn't married him since she disliked his video game hobby that much to do what she did. No wonder why divorce rates are so high....

She didn't like his gaming...so maybe she thought he spent too much time playing the vidya? But even if he did, that's something simple to work out. Either talk to him and ask him to play less, or find games to play together. And she might have hidden her sadistic side from him during the dating process, but I really don't understand why she would marry him just to do something like that to him. If she really loved him, you'd think she wouldn't do something like that.

*shrug*

Oh well. Divorce is imminent for them I suspect.

If this person really is awesome then I don't think he'd have cared much. It's not as if she just sold it on a whim. Maybe she thought they could communicate better without the PS3 leading to a more trusting and better marriage. No doubt they were paid by the media to cover the story and if he owns his own business this can will result in a lot of free advertising.
Maybe he deserved it, who knows.
All that really matters is how it effects them, if they get divorced in the next year, it was probably a mistake, on the other hand they could stay married for like 50 years, in which case, it was worth it.
