airdog Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I guess she gets that trip to the mall she's been itching for... :-P LOL....I just bought one on Friday and am having the same issue. She has not noticed yet...but it's a matter of time i'm sure. I bought some of Deadman's covers so maybe I can just tell her they are the same ones just got covers for them. I'll wish you luck cause i'm going to need the same! Just noticed you are in Costa Mesa....I got my Warthog at the Microcenter just up the 55 from you on Edinger.

USAF77 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Dont tell her. Its like when my wife buys my kid some gaming knickknack, and its always the same answer from both of them "Ive had it for awhiles". Most wives dont know what joystick were using, "at least for gameing".:joystick: And if she does ask, now try it out for practice, "Ive had it for awhiles".:D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] "Lead, Follow, or get out of the way" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depth Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 If she doesn't understand your hobby then save up some more money and buy her something she'll value just as much as you'll value the HOTAS. If you can't think of anything, then... have fun with your HOTAS :blow: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FanBoy2006.01 Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 I hope your wife doesn't check your credit card purchasses. If she does (I assume you left a paper trail when you bought it.) you will be in a "danger close" situation. If not hide the box and other stuff it comes with and get ridd of your old stick. This way it might go unnoticed. Also. Remember marrage is not unlike warfare; disinformation is your friend.:thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
