    Default What would you do in this situation?

    I've been sitting in my favorite La-Z-Boy chair, under the weather by the way, enjoying Tim Horton's That's Hockey on TSN. My wife came in to the room, smiled that smile that made me fall in love with her, then picked up the remote and changed the channel to watch...of all things...college basketball. What should I do?

    A) Beat her with the remote and turn it back to TSN
    B) Cry like a baby until I get my way.
    C) Withhold sexual relations until she can't stand it anymore.
    D) Ignore her actions completely but cheer loudly whenever St. Mary's scores (she is an St. F.X. Fan)
    E) explain to her in the most polite and logical way how hockey is a superior sport which will obligate her to turn it back.

    Has this ever happened to you gentlemen? Any thoughts would be appreciated!

    I would A and then divorce her immediately.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    You're going to threaten to withhold sex from her , lmao , good luck with that!

    I'd look at her again , remember that smile you fell in love with , enjoy the basketball game
    and know she won't threaten you with no sex because you didn't question her changing the channel.
    Or you could grow a pair and pray for the best , lol!

    Good fun my friend , thanks for the laugh.

    You won't win with any of your choices. Grin an bear it for now. Once you get better go out and buy another TV. Streaming TSN on your phone is another option.

    Personally I would take a deep breath, relax, and enjoy the fact that my mom was no longer bugging me about being single...
