I had to just give up trying to watch stuff with my wife. Otherwise I’d be waiting forever while she watches utter shite ghost hunting pish on YouTube!
To be fair, I don’t blame her - we moved in October and because the living room is quite big we have 3 of the weans’ computers in there, with one half being the couch and tv space. Needless to say, with three of them playing minecraft etc and shouting that it’s not the most chill place to try and watch shit. I’m able to just filter out the noise and watch shit, but I it’s a bit chaotic for her to be able to relax.
@Finnbot I empathise there. We moved about 2 years ago and I made sure that we had a nice adult space in the loft where she can sit in a comfy corner and binge whatever crap she wants to rewatch to chill while playing a game or scrolling.
I’ll be on my chair in the same room gaming with pals, all while the kid is downstairs in his own hangout space. It’s honestly bliss now that it’s setup, but previously we were all over each other when trying to unwind.
Exactly - it means we/they can play down here and not worry about disturbing her. She’s got all her shit up there and it’s like a wee safe spaces from the frenetic atmosphere having 5 weans provides!
Get that poor woman a fancy shed or something omg, that sounds like hell.
Oh she has her own wee haven up in our room. I’m kinda jealous because my pc is also in the living room and it does sometimes rip ma knitting when they get a bit loud! I’ve taken my work laptop to work up there more than once and it’s like a wee zen den.
Ah good, everyone needs to be able to relax sometimes! 4 PCs in one living room during the summer heat is giving me palpitations as well though lol 😬
