They confuse a Warhound with a At-At

(which happened to me the other night when I posted a pic of my under-construction warhound)

When they don't whinge about everything Games Workshop regardless of how good it may be.:rolleyes:

Or, when you get called 'a racist, homophobic *****' when someone overhears you say 'I don't like Dark Elves much anymore". (this did happen)

They don't understand why you get pissed off when they break your models.

They say "aww cute toy soldiers!" when you finally work up the courage to show her your totally cool and not at all cute collection of Pre Heresy Ultramarines in Maximus armour.

Hahaha this is so true! Biggest mistake I've ever made was losing a girl that was intersted in gaming, loved video games, and had a back that could have doubled for Jessica Biel, believe me I have the pics to prove it! And man hats off to you for building up the courage and liking her that much

Wouldn't want them as wargamers anyway. They would probably love the idea of Tau and wonder why the races fought each other instead of learning to get along.

When Space Hulk is referred to as "Monsters vs Aliens" (at least she plays it though)

When they don't understand why you PC wallpaper is the Emperor facing down Horus (and make the appropriate 'I give up' sigh)

When you turn round to see your needle files being used for a manicure

I could go on!

..when they ask "what are you thinking?"

you answer.."I can't decide between 3 units of 10 lootas or 2 units of 15"

..and they never ask you that again.
