Netflix and Amazon Prime equal ABYSS

Quincy and Maude here.

We’ve been experiencing a black hole effect coming from our Xbox… and it’s getting ugly.

When your contact lenses stick to your eyes, you miss social events and workouts, and you start acquiring more than your fair share of cellulite dimples on your arse, you may be suffering from Video Streaming. A most heinous affliction, Video Streaming can strike anyone at any time, provided you have a gaming console and an adequate television. Other side-effects include extreme thirst (from not having the energy to cross the room to retrieve water pitcher), irritability (from moments of slow internet speed), and full-blown insomnia.

The struggle is real. Worse, Netflix and Amazon Prime create a veritable rift between the two of us. Maude’s affliction may be slightly more horrendous, as anxiety ensues when Quincy takes a Streaming break for Destiny and various other video games. Pillows fly, voices of outrage cry out, and feelings are hurt… until we inevitably find a Streaming title to enjoy together.

Someday, we’ll kick this nasty habit… but for now, we’re going to watch Cutthroat Kitchen until the wee hours of the morning and our mouths are parched from salivating at food we will never taste. Tragic.
