My Boyfriend bet me $500 that I couldn’t beat Elden ring in 6 months with little to no video game experience. Humor

Post image

The rules of the bet:

  1. No magic
  2. Only Melee
  3. No farming for runes
  4. Have to beat the entire game by June, 6th, 2024

I am currently on the last boss of the game with 89 hours played. I hope the last boss doesn’t take me 5 months. 😂

LOL! Your boyfriend just baited you into getting into one of his hobbies by putting 500$ on the line. Money well spent tbh

Or just go vegan and die of malnutrition after about 2 years

u/NoWaySomebodyTookThi Jan 13 '24

There is no in-between. These are our only options. Dying of malnutrition as a vegan or of a heart attack eating meat. Damn.

u/OrganizationAware869 Feb 18 '24

Over 7 years vegan, hitting PRs on lifts and running… waiting for the malnutrition to set in…

Can I summon help to find a girlfriend?

u/TCH_doomsikle Jan 12 '24

Yes, but you can only summon Patches

u/IncelDetected Jan 12 '24

The moment you need him to be a wingman and distract a grumpy friend he’s going to dip just like he does with Radahn

u/Chrissyball19 Jan 12 '24

You'd invite him to a party, he'd push you into the pool while you're talking to your gf.

2

u/Sicktekneekz Jan 15 '24

Patches always been a bitch since dark souls one. Pushed us off a cliff smh

u/Crashman09 Jan 12 '24

u/ebagjones Jan 12 '24

Just don't summon 'let me solo her'.

Unless you're into watching, I guess.

How do i summon a girlfriend?

1

u/CrunchyKarl Jan 13 '24

Why not summon a girlfriend directly

1

u/Perithius Jan 13 '24

Nah if I summoned her directly then I wouldn’t have the perfect summon of a wingman to convince her to stay with me

1

u/CrunchyKarl Jan 13 '24

Just summon the wingman when the inevitable boss fight with the gf happens

2

u/Posmposmposm Jan 12 '24

Step 2: … Step 3:profit?

u/A_wild_so-and-so Jan 12 '24
