We’ve all either experienced or at least witnessed it ourselves: a guy following his significant other around a store with a dead look in his eyes. While maybe he’s even carrying all the bags, he’s only there in body and not spirit. It’s just NOT what he wants to be doing that day!
The stuff we put up with for that sweet, sweet lovin’
Well, a mall in China may have come up with a solution for this issue. Global Harbour Mall in Shanghai has built a couple of stations called “Husband Storage.” Each booth contains a chair, monitor, computer and gamepad, that dudes (or anyone not in the mood to shop) can sit in and play retro 1990s games while waiting on their chicks (or anyone who is in the mood for shopping). The concept is still in the testing stages and men have given overall favorable reviews of Husband Storage, saying old games like Tekken have been a welcome trip down memory lane.
The Paper shows this guy getting some mad Street Fighter II combos.
Chinese social media has been have a good time poking fun at the concept, but more than a few people have wondered that if your just going to leave your spouse behind to play video games, why should they even leave the house?
Which is a valid point, but do you agree? If Husband Storage opened up at Birchwood Mall, would you let yourself be stowed away in one of these gaming booths so your lady can get her shopping done? Let us know on our Twitter and Facebook!
