mking55, I think you're the one that lost perspective. The word with most of these things the OP listed above is Devastating, not frustrating. Id be willing to bet that you've gone through none of those things you have listed.

One thing i'm frustrated at these days is "When you finally finish college and get a career you have little to no spare time for gaming"
Im also frustrated with "planned the day out to watch the bills game on tv only to realize at gametime that its not televised in my area"

Many people here have gone through a lot of crap in life im willing to bet. FHM offers a potential relaxing moment where you can forget your problems and just get immersed in a different world. So yes, if something gets in the way of that immersion, it is most definitely frustrating.

Mking, heres alittle reading for you to determine the two going forward:
devastating
Adjective
1.Highly destructive or damaging.
2.Causing severe shock, distress, or grief.

frustrating
Verb
1.Prevent (a plan or attempted action) from progressing, succeeding, or being fulfilled: "his attempt to frustrate the merger".
2.Prevent (someone) from doing or achieving something.
