So, after work tonight I decided we needed to run by the LGS so I could feed my need for all things Orky. After pulling up the information online I called the delicate and wonderfully patient Kyrra and she agreed to going by the LGS despite it being likely that there would be hordes of unwashed and mutant gamers playing some type of game in the back... including the employees of said LGS. We dared the store anyway for Orky goodness, however, finding that they were having they\'re Annual Clearance Sale was definitely a plus! For me, that is.
Kyrra managed to locate a comic she liked right by the door and we meandered through the store looking through sale bins and checking out the tables. There was no one behind the counter but we could hear the sounds of gamers coming from the back of the store and the unmistakable whiff of \"eau de gamer\" wafting from the store. I\'m walking around looking for the Ork Battleforce, Ork Warboss, and a package of 1 inch round bases.
Then we both realize that the one display that has bases on it doesn\'t have any 1 inch round bases on it so Kyrra goes to the desk to ask for some. One of the gamers stops playing, with a big sigh, and comes over to the desk to listen to her question about the round bases. He\'s more interested in ogling her ass and her breasts than acknowledging her question beyond a mere grunt.
After a few minutes she locates the bases and we move our separate ways through the store, with the gamer continuing to ogle and stare at her the entire time. We\'re even joking at one point that the reason she doesn\'t paint/play with lead is that she plays computer games... or she would if the computer she built wasn\'t currently being well protected by all the lead I have surrounding it!!
When we get to the point of checking out, and is asked again about the bases, he comes up with the gem of \"Oh I can\'t get into my distributors database!\" When we wanted to know what was in the STORE! All in all, we managed to come away with Kyrra\'s comic, the Ork Battleforce, Sisters Repentia, assorted old Reaper lead AND a package of 1 inch round bases. All at 37% off. Woot!!
Now I just have to convince Kyrra that she doesn\'t have to use the ENTIRE contents of the water heater to peel off the gamer funk from her body!
