what warhammer was, I\'d be able to buy enough rulebooks to give each person a copy whenever they so much as looked curious about it.

\"How tall are you?\"
I would make Bill Gates look like a welfare case.
No sh*t! lol I think everyone on this site knows that one VERY well.

what my first name was after I\'d just told them 
.
\"So what\'s your name ?\"
\"Wealon\"
\"No, I mean your first name\"
:duh:
Well, if I did get a nickel for this, I\'d be able to finance the development of a time machine to make sure my name gets in the calendar.

It\'s not so much the question but when you answer someone that asks you about your hobbies....
They get this dopey, \"what the he** are you talking about look\" when you enthusiastically tell them about painting minis. Although I find people that are artists in general seem to understand and just sort of nod their heads. Your average Joe or Bloke thinks we\'re all a bit off our rocker. They\'d rather sit on the couch with a remote and swill beer. Not that swilling beer is a bad thing....
So I guess if I had a nickel for every one of those blank, dopey looks, i\'d be pretty well off!

b..are you a “good” witch?
(I’m good, bad, and everything in-between)
c..aren’t you going to get lead poisoning?
(only if I chew the flash off with my teeth, dumdum)
d..your never going to catch a fellow, hunched over a desk at all hours!
( gads! Mom get off it already)
e..why???
(because I can!)

Did you make that?.....
If I did, do you really think I\'d be working here? (Damn I hate that question)
Why do you paint toy soldiers?
Cos
Aren\'t you a little old for that?....
As compared to what, sitting at a football match and freezing my arse off watching 22 massively overpaid primadonna\'s faff about with a leather ball? or vegetating in front of the TV watching a soap opera?
What is it supposed to be?
It\'s a fantasy hero/heroine. Why what does it look like?
The question asked of Wiccanpony:
Da...isn’t time to get a “Real” hobby?
Ask them to Define Real...or ask them what they create in their \'spare time\'.
Or the other really, really bad one that hacks me offf big style:
Isn\'t Dungeons & Dragons where people have committed suicide?
Only after having talked to you, pal.....
Did you make that?.....
If I did, do you really think I\'d be working here? (Damn I hate that question)
Why do you paint toy soldiers?
Cos
a) I\'m reasonable at it,
b) I enjoy it,
c) I have to deal with D***heads most of the time, and
d) it beats having to pay for a shrink, or taking a large piece of wood and beating you to a bloody pulp with it!

Gad, I got that one a few times, subbing \"girl\" for \"fellow\". I don\'t even know how to reply, except that not all the activities of my day* are carefully designed to get me laid. (wiccanpony, just tell your mom in a Very Serious Voice to drop the damn topic already, maybe that\'ll work.)
Generally, all of my friends react very positively when they see my work. Even the ones with very different interests will say \"Wow, you painted all of these? They\'re so tiny!\" or words to that effect.
* just most of them.

lol I bet a lot of people have heard that !
Another less common thing is \"Don\'t you like going out to nightclubs / pubs / or play football then?\"
I never knew that mini painting meant you could not participate in other activities hehe
