All across the United States, boyfriends and husbands are rather surprised by their significant others’ ability to quote from Call of Duty: World at War.

According to her live-in boyfriend, Tom Schmaltz, 23, Stacy Thompson now frequently and accurately quotes from the popular first-person shooter game. “We were watching Enemy at the Gates the other night, and after Vassili kills the first few Nazis, Stacy blurted out, ‘Our recon plane will find them!’ It baffled me.”

Thompson, 22, said: “Do you realize how many times I’ve heard about that damned recon plane? Only about 4 billion times.I can tell you all the maps and everything. What’s the one with the church tower? Oh, Outskirts! That night one with the beach. That’s Makin.”

Kyle Jones, 28 says, “Yeah, my wife will be in the other room and all of sudden, she just randomly yells ‘Our dogs hunger for the flesh of our enemies!’ I’m like, where in the hell did that come from?”

Tricia Jones said: “Call of Duty is annoying, but it’s better than hearing that one guy say ‘Slayer’ or ‘Oddball’ or ‘Double kill’ or ‘Betrayal,’ over and over. God, I heard that every day for a year and a half. I’m kinda glad there’s something different now, but it’s getting old. ”

Nate Blauer, 26, said: “Just last week my wife, Katie, switched from ‘Enemy artillery!’ to ‘Outstanding marines! Outfuckingstanding! We kicked ass!’ I said, ‘Ok, let’s hear some more.’ And she threw out, ‘A lot of men died here today, all for nothing.’ Blew my mind. Sometimes she hums the songs.”

Katie Blauer, 27, rolled her eyes, smiled, and then hummed: “duwah duhn-duhn, duwah duhn-duhn, duwah-dadadadadadaDUHN!’”
