What Goes Around, Comes Around
Did the husband from the short story Death by Scrabble deserves to be choked to death? In my opinion, the husband deserves every bit of the bad luck that happened to him. This is so because of the husband's negative characteristics which are: selfish, liar and cruel.
First of all, the husband is a selfish old man. he only thinks about himself and what he wants to do with his life. He did not even consider about what his wife wants with her life and he never did ask for her opinion either. All he cares is about himself. He thinks that his wife is holding him back from "seeing the world", but the truth is, the only reason why he is stuck in his house in the first place is because he never did gave the wife a chance.
Next, the husband is a big fat liar. He cheats during the Scrabble game, the game is only a small matter but yet the husband chooses to cheat. Who knows what other things he might have lied to the wife? As a couple, they should be honest and sincere to each other. Although it is true that sometimes it is better to tell white lies in order to prevent any arguments, but still, for married couple, this habit will only cause problems in the their relationship during the later years.
Besides that, the husband is also a very cruel man. He keeps on thinking and imagining about ways to kill his wife. A husband's role is supposed to be to protect his family. However, the husband is doing the exact opposite. What's more, the husband critics the wife on everything that she does. He loathes the way the wife always sleeps and always nags at him. As a married couple, they should be understanding towards each other and the husband should be able to tolerate with the wife's habits, both negative and positive ones.
In conclusion, the husband definitely deserves to be choked to death. The wife deserves way better than to be with an ungrateful husband. What goes around, comes around. Surely there will be consequences when one does something bad.
