Couple's dispute over playing Slay the Spire 2 in bed gets a ruling from comedian John Hodgman: 'Pick an arbitrary battle and stick with it'

In a unique ruling, comedian and legal advisor John Hodgman has declared it acceptable to play Slay the Spire 2 in bed, even if one's partner opposes the idea. This ruling stems from a dispute between Dan and Elissa, where Dan viewed Elissa's nighttime gaming as detrimental to her sleep quality. However, Elissa maintained that gaming helped her fall asleep more easily, and struggled to do so without gaming beforehand.

Hodgman pointed out that Dan's refusal to share the bed due to Elissa's gaming habits was unjustified, and suggested the importance of compromise in a relationship. He ruled in favor of Elissa, arguing that she had the right to choose how to prepare for sleep, despite Hodgman himself having a conflict of interest as a sleep product advocate.
