Amazing how often football's come up in this thread
You don't get riots at Ballroom dancing competitions. Probably because it's hard to throw rocks with a limp wrist.

And if anything slightly scary happens you all screams, flap your arms
and jump into your partners arms.


By "you" I am referring to all the men.

If I jumped into Ms Foxtrot's arms I would probably kill her
Otherwise, spot on.

nor larping
in fact they've sent police to the big larp events before now because they were suspicious that there was such a large, regular gathering of people and such a low incidence of reported crime

Surely it's only a matter of time before someone reports a mass LARP battle because they can't tell the swords are rubber?

probably has been more than once
but usually the police have had warning.

Years ago I got stopped in London for carrying a larp sword. Lucky I didn't get shot or Games Workshop would have got looted or something

I'd be right in there if that happened
Those Mumak models are fucking expensive

If you got any of the LOTR wargaming models in the divorce I'll marry you

nah - I broke a few (not lotr ones, though) when I found out he'd been cheating, but I didn't take any with me

Good for you
Hit the man where it hurts

(I don't mean this to sound sarcastic, I know how much time and money goes into buying and painting those models)

Oh I got him worse
I stomped on his millenium falcon (one he'd been carefully keeping since he was a kid). Don't mess with me :)

This would only scare me
if "millenium falcon" is geek euphamism for "cock and balls"

It sounds more like you were doing him a favour
perhaps increasing his chances of finding someone else...?
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Mon 8 Aug 2011, 13:20, Reply)

he found enough other people
when he was with me. I don't know how that works
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Mon 8 Aug 2011, 13:21, Reply)

being married seems to attract women.
no, I don't know either.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 8 Aug 2011, 13:24, Reply)

Being unavailable is attractive, it appears
Never been married but I can vouch for Badger's statement in principle
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Mon 8 Aug 2011, 13:28, Reply)

Not in my experience
I've been married for six years and I am just as unappealing to women now as I was before.

Can you beat a bear to death with your penis, though?

(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Mon 8 Aug 2011, 13:31, Reply)

Yeah... of course
Oh hang on...

I don't get angry often, but when I do...
My friend described me as taking 'the nuclear option'. I did a lot of tracing the bitch involved, too and pestering her on MSN (stopped short of calling her at work, although I did talk to her at one point. She said "yes, but think how I feel") and generally making it known amongst his 'friends' that he was not to be trusted.

By the afternoon I felt sad

(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Mon 8 Aug 2011, 13:38, Reply)

I love Warhammer.
But I'm far too conscious of how much I'd have the piss ripped out of me if I ever got seen walking in or out of a Games Workshop. A looting of the one in Bromley could give me an opportunity to get in there wearing a mask and not be seen.

I had shitloads of Necrons when I was about thirteen.
I think I stopped when I realised girls' fannies do not get moist at the sight of you playing with plastic figurines and dice.

A friend of mine has started up again, and has once again stopped having any luck with women at all. He doesn't seem to see the correlation between the two!
