Look, face it. Odds are if you're on my list, you probably refer to yourself as a geek, a nerd, a loser or a dork. Those just happen to be my peeps. I never got along with the cool kids.

I don't have children yet, but I'm sure my sperm hang their heads down and look at me with disgust already for spending so much money on this hobby. What army/armies do you play?

Back in first edition I waffled between Eldar, Tyrannid, and Space Marines. Somewhere along the way I lost all of my models except a genestealer. At 3rd edition I got a large Necron force about half painted/used and I haven't touched them in three years since I had kids.

Oh my. I think you sprayed enough dork to reach me all the way here in Minnesota!

But hey - I have a giant Invader Zim costume on my porch. I can't point fingers.
