    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 recommend starting by reading the Eisenhorn trilogy, or anything by Dan Abnett, really. That’s how I got started - I figured I should learn a bit about the WH40k universe, googled what is the best book, recognised Abnett as the co-author of the modern Guardian of the Galaxy comics (which I absolutely loved) and never regretted it.

      I give it two weeks before you’re randomly musing about your desire to die along side Sanguinius in defence of the Eternity Gate.

      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

            True, but I guess I miss the days when you walked into GW and saw the big 3: WHFB, 40K, and LotR. I mean of course there was Blood Bowl, Killteam, etc on the sidelines, but now it’s sad to see LotR on the sidelines too :/

        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).
