Wife/girlfriend or audio: if you had to chose?


Say your wife or girlfriend (no kid involved) asked you to drop your passion for audio, sell your system and settle for a Bose Wave box - because she thinks that your hobby is a barely grown-up kid toy story that needs to stop (either invasive or expensive or just ridiculous to her friends and family).
What do you do? keep wife/girlfriend or your gear?
Just respond: Audio or Wife and in brackets years of relationship...

Audio (21)!

Well... it might depend on whether Duchess delivered it as a request, or an ultimatum. I don't take kindly to ultimatums, but then she's long since figured that out.

Since I'm a home-based dealer, the message would also be "git up off yo' wuthless a$$ an' git a REEL job!"

Geeze, I sure hope it never comes to that!

Nrchy,

I was saying the same thing above.

From chatting ealier on this thread, I got the vibe many of the guys where being phesesous and moreless joking around that their systems and music was more important.

At least I hope they where moreless joking around! If not, thats a sad state of where our great country has gone and unforunatey going further.

Good times..
Freemand, mostly just joking around. There is no replacement for the women that we fall in love with. People change in according to the enviroment, career...Different thing happens to different people for a different reason. I believe the disposable income I spend on audio gears is well-spended. At least, I do not blow my money at the Casino or titty bars.
Andrew:

may be this should have been the thread: audio or titty bar - where the sound is crappy!!!!! humm, who wants to get in business with me: the audiophile Titty bar, dances on 2-ch hi-end system, called "Tit and Tweeter"? "and now please welcome JEEEENNIFER and a pair of Avalon Isis!"
Now you've done it. This is sure to be everywhere you look at the next CES. It is in Vegas after all.
