10 things you Need while playing FFXI

Even so. I'm going to need her number when/if you breakup with her as well as a handy phamlet/instruction manual.
 
My ten-needed items:

10. My DS with FF3 and FFV in so I can play around on those when I'm in downtime (read: dead, or LFP).
9. A tall container of Jolt Cola.
8. Socks. My feet get really cold. I take em off during BCNMs and Missions, since my feet also sweat -.-;
7. Music dependent on my mood.
6. When it wants to work, and when I have a spare power strip port, my 'craptop' so I can also look up things.
5. Six tells going at the same time (most of which are generally from Avilas and Rannoch).
4. At least two of my scythes (atm: Ivory Sickle and Antlion Sickle) in my inventory. I dunno why, but I always feel lucky when I have them near >.>
3. An unfinished stack of Beastman Seals/Kindred's Seals.
2. Stine manning the other computer desk.
1. A handy rolled-up newspaper to bop the cat whenever she jumps on my desk.

Sorry if I made it sound like a regular thing, yes she does spoil me bringing me snacks and stuff, but what you say is true very rarely does she do any "favors" while i play. She despises this game and yes does it to "try" and get me off the computer. I can get some anytime except when playing this game is teh normal thing, She will only do w/e I want when she is in a very good mood..

Your girlfriend lost some coolness points =( I still like her though.
 
In no particular order.

1. My Toaster Oven
(Which One Night With Iso and Moink over, kinda killed all the power in my room. I have a thread somewhere that Aly replied to after I came on to apologize for red-dotting before we left for camp. Denny's that serves beer ftw. Too bad it was fuckin' 4am.)

2. The fridge under it stuffed with mixers, booze, and non-stinking snacks. I hate having food in there that leaves an odor. Sealed apple sauce, canned fruit, things in containers... And I'm so lazy to open/close the fridge during xp pts that I have the USB chill thinggum for whatever drink I decide to pull out, and a warm one for when I'm feeling effeminate and drink tea or something. >_>;

3. Watching how BAD of a RDM Precise is while they're up in sky and laughing my ass off at hearing Isollde cuss him out to the TV and Moink tryina get her to chill. Or just random Iso blurts of "WTF MAN?!"

4. PIP/PBP monitor to whore QCDN, watch movies, and wiki stuff while playing, so I don't have to use a dual monitor setup. XBox Component input and the DVI for PC. S-Video sometimes for my other gaming consoles if I wanna play another game while playing FFXI. Optical sound shared with my PC's speakers so I swap b/t 1 or the other. Have another surround setup, but never needed to split the PC and my Xbox 360 sound yet...

5. Cellphone in evening w/free minutes, ventrilo, xboxlive chat, so I can remain occupied when Iso and Moink aren't here. I can be a real chatterbox, but most of the time I just end up being an ear to people that won't tell them to stfu.

6. Shower is awesome so I don't feel like the dirty bastard I am and a pre-xp dumparooski is always nice, nice most of us don't have Myrrh's dream chair, or a colostomy bag at the hip.

7. Music is a must for playing support/back-line. Front-line, not so much but it does come in for the long sessions where shit gets repetitive. Only problem is some songs get me goin' so I end up at the club dancing as horribly as a half-asian should. -- Playlist for xp, need suggestions or have suggestions? Poke me.

8. Stopwatch or a clock with a second display to time PH pops and a spare XBox360 for when Iso/Moink are over or my 360 breaks. (Yeah I stuffed 2-in-1 b/c I didn't think it was important enough as a standalone.)

9. Sticky greens. Since I'm not working, I find it relaxing to kick back once in a while. Not a pothead, but not a straightedge either, I don't like overdoing it. Once, twice a month, if even tops... It's counter productive to my training for when I'm NOT on FFXI flexing for my lovelies and it is a difference I notice while trying to last a few 3 minute rounds against better fighters.

10. Pizza place that closes and delivers until 4am and doesn't mind if I answer the door in my boxer-briefs.

Plenty more and stuff I'd probably swap out for other things, but these are the first 10 that came to mind...

Hehehe, nice topic. In no particular order:

1) Music. Probably the most important, Foobar must be up and crankin'.

2) Laptop nearby. Either to PL myself, look up information, or to have maps handy.

3) Another TV. For those long LFG hours or easy going parties, I'll pop on another game to finish. With a 500+ game library, gotta find some way to play em all x.X

4) Something cold to drink. Usually juice, tea or gatorade.

5) A guitar or keyboard. I'm a musician, so playing/writing music in my downtimes is another thing to do.

6) Some kind of access to some kind of food. Not snacks usually, but something akin to an easily made healthy meal.

7) A book. Just another form of entertainment for the long hours.

8) DS. If my friends want to crack out the Mario Kart or Pokemon WiFi, I'm there.

9) Friends. IRL friends that also play make this game 100% more enjoyable.

10) My fan. I live in a desert, so any means to stay cool are a necessity.

I hate you -.- Most, if not all girls I know, hate when their boyfriends play games instead of being with them. They'd never give someone a blowjob unless it was to get them off the computer.

Hm, you're hanging out with the wrong girls then. I don't see anything wrong with having a boyfriend who plays a lot of games while you're there, or with doing nice things for him while he plays- I mean if you love someone you want to make them happy, not make them give up their hobbies for you.

If I were living with someone or even staying over for the night or whatever and couldn't keep myself occupied for a few hours then I would be a terrible person to spend time with anyway- if you are with someone then you should feel comfortable being yourself and if that includes playing 5 hours of games a night then the person you're with shouldn't have a problem with it- if they do, it's up to them to deal with it, not up to you to change.

And does it really matter where you give a blow job if you're giving one? On a bed, at a computer chair, does it much matter? I mean if it turns someone on to get a blow job while they're playing a game then who cares, you do it to make them happy, not for them to pay attention to you. That's a messed up thing girls do, using sex just to get some attention.

But that's the deal, most girls are just really attention starved and cannot stand it when their guy pays a lot of attention to something else- even a video game. But not all of us are like that, thank goodness.

PS: I realize I'm about 10 days late on this thread but I just joined and felt the need to um, represent my gender, or something. :P Hello!
