you may have heard this before but.......
You know you\'ve been playing 40K too long if:
...when you\'re out with your friends, you worry about unit coherency.
...when you see a crowd of people, you estimate in your head how many people you could fit under a blast template.
...troop for troop, your 40K army is larger than your friend\'s Epic army, and has more super-heavy tanks to boot.
...the word \"ultramarine\" immediately conjures up an image of a blue-armored Space Marine, rather than a shade of blue.
...you honestly believe that swords are superior hand to hand weapons because they afford you a parry.
...you look for hard and soft cover when walking around.
...you think of Akira/Yoda/whoever as a fourth-level psyker.
...you refer to the various weapons by their \"colloquial names\" (E.g. \"My Ork Warbuggy fires it\'s Sun Gun at your devastator squad.\" \"I return fire with Hell\'s Halitosis...\").
...you flatly refuse to buy Jones a beer, in case he starts acting strangely.
...you secretly suspect siamese twins of being genestealer hybrids.
...you call your friends Brother.
...your partner divorces you for mumbling \"Jain, Jain!\" in your sleep.
...your bank manager decides that hobbies are a good thing.
...you won\'t go into your basement until your partner confirms that there are no plague zombies down there.
...you feel the urge to take skid tests on roundabouts.
...you need weeks of professional counselling because Farseers lose their energy field options.
...it it occurs to you that purestrain genestelaers would be good at tennis.
... You don\'t own the 40k compilation or compendium (the red and yellow books) because you have all the rules in the original WDs.
... All your marines are mk6
... You remember when mk7 armour was Death eagle armour (WD 113 or so)
... You\'ve played battles using chapter approved (esp. more battles with chapter approved than with the new rules)
...when you\'re out with your friends, you keep getting your back banner caught in trees.
...when shopping for a car, you MUST get a red one, because, as everyone knows, \"Red wunz go fasta.\"
...you refer to your car as \"the Rhino.\"
...and when someone cuts you off, you curse the day you bought it without the optional Storm Bolter upgrade!
...and when the dealer told you it was a very safe car, and came with standard dual airbags, you asked about the Ablative Armor.
...\"Turbo? what about the Squig Fuel Injector?\"
...if you have ever constructed an Imperator Titan, any Chaos deity, or the Emperor--from scratch--because you were bored and wanted it for the 100,000 point battles.
...if you actually *own* enough minis for a 100,000 point battle.
...if, on your bankruptcy claim, \" Eldar\" is listed as one of the reasons...
...if you know each and every one of your Guardians by name.
...if you have ever wished the model manufacturers made a 1/72 scale reproduction of Deep Space Nine so you could convert it to a Craftworld. (Nevermind it\'d be bigger than your house...)
I have a couple of other jokes based on 40k/WHFB if you like this one let me know and I will post the others, if anyone else has a joke to add lets hear it (or read it anyway) lol
