    I’ve never kissed a boy but at this point I might need someone to get me started on Warhammer, it’s scary how big it’s gotten & how I don’t have any time for even much simpler things.

      I remember when they were doing Lord of the rings Warhammer. That was like 20 years ago. I bought a set, it’s still on my shelf unpainted

        Yes, this sounds reasonable.
        I can understand this.

        I couldn’t relate, couldn’t even understand, not even imagine if you said you read all 500 books, went on two cons each year, and made costumes. Totally unbelievable if you would have made friends & found time for them.

        All great things, but I assume some superhuman capabilities are necessary (or, just more life options in regards to financial-time situation).

    “Hey babe, come over, we can watch a scary movie for Halloween.”

    “What movie?”

    “Event Horizon.”

    “Oh, I’ve never seen it, what’s it about?”

      I’ve been waiting for my kids to be old enough to watch this movie. Once they’re all like 16, I’m just gonna hit them with a casual “hey, let’s watch this old sci-fi movie” and give them no other details. Mwahahaha

          What was that story, there’s a creepypasta about the moon or deep oceans or something that was basically “We explored somewhere new, only two crew came back, they refused to say anything besides “don’t go back.” They were found dead the next day by their own hands”

    Only reason my GF knows anything about 40k because of me is because I used the Mechanicum not knowing the actual technicals of how anything works to set up a joke about me being a software magos because all I do is write endless canticles of the endl semicolon

      I ensnared my partner by describing the mechanicus as “Evangelical Transhumanists” and then giving her the Flesh and Steel audiobook (which is just a genuinely great piece of scifi all on its own WHEN DO WE GET THE SEQUEL GW PLEASE). Now she’s color-coordinating the paint job on her Trayzen and Orikan minis and drunkenly holding court on how the Drukhari are the ‘only moral faction’.

      help me what have I done

        If she’s defending the morals of the Drukhari I’d start worrying about how much time she spends on certain parts of the internet if I were you.

        Specifically the parts of the internet that involve giving her ideas for very not safe for family television things she plans to do to you.
