How To Get Your Girl Into Gaming, Florian Eckhardt Edition. Offer your girlfriend a clear choice: either she can spend a couple hours on the couch making little virtual men prance about in a brightly colored mushroom kingdom, or she can see you naked. This is a type of Pavlovian conditioning. If you're feeling vindictive, offer her the choice of either watching your corpulent strip tease or playing Battlecruiser 3000 A.D. — you will notice in her eyes the same look that people trapped in burning buildings get just before they hurl themselves out of the tenth story window. Rinse then repeat with the next girlfriend when your current one inevitably dumps you.

It's written by a REAL. LIVE. GIRL. so there's got to be something here you can use to brainwash your spouse or significant other into a more convivial pastime. Florian Eckhardt
