Ho ho!  Caught in the act

Ho ho!  Caught in the act was he?  Well, as for my friend, the more he comes over now, the more he talks 'lego'.  Just the other day he came over to play xbox and noticed the big table in the corner of my room(who wouldn't see it) that contained all my molding materials and he got reeeeeeeeal interested in that

Yeah your porbably right, he

Yeah your porbably right, he sure acted like he liked them last year.

Well, deep down, he probly

Well, deep down, he probly does like them

Same here. What was

Same here. What was annoying is I thought that a friend liked lego then at school showed him a cool set then he said "Oh I never liked lego only my little brother likes them."

I feel that way sometimes,

I feel that way sometimes, but then I find out some of my friends like that still like lego, but they don't have any, or are too busy doing something else.

Well anyways my room will

Well anyways my room will never clean as logn as I still like Lego.

Its always nice knowing that a friend likes Lego, but I went to this friends house and I saw lego nowhere near in sight...

Then theres mine with Lego in every direction. *sigh* as you get older people change then if you dont change as much you feel really out of place :(

I'm with you Commander

I'm with you Commander Vlax, this is getting a little out of hand.  And I also have to say, why did you tell us about how clean your room is?

Well the offtopicness is in

Well the offtopicness is in the redzone about now, exactly how did we get to talking about how clean your room is?

last week i got a note from

last week i got a note from are cleaner saying i had to clean my room so she could clean it.My mum even told her not to clean my room.( i serisouly didn't see the point, it just means less to clean if she dosn't clean my bedroom)

.........Ok, that was

.........Ok, that was reeeeealy off topic.  But anyway, it seems that the more I have read this stuff, the less it has made me feel about being embaressed.  Just the other day, I had no problem telling my friends I've been in my room the past few days building legos.  They did'nt even realy care, a couple of them even thought it was cool ;)

I love seeing people fight

I love seeing people fight and argue in public. These two teenagers were going at it all's they kept doing was shoving eachother, and it looked like they were taking turns, and the person who got shoved would like shake in a motion that looked like he got shocked LOL!

 Sorry for the off topic post.

And hilarious!  And don't

And hilarious!  And don't worry about it pharazon, I did that earlier ;)

There was no other people

There was no other people around. But  if there was that would be embarissing. XD

Ha! I know this is a useless

Ha! I know this is a useless post but I just had to laugh thinking about that little kid's reaction.

I laughed afer readin the

I laughed afer readin the message the first time!  But now Amagon has me wondering...what were the reactions of the people around you...if there were any

I would laugh so hard if I

I would laugh so hard if I was standing there watching.  What was the reaction from ppl standing by? or were there any? lol

Yeah I was like in my head

Yeah I was like in my head "Shmuck? What the heck!?"

Hahaha, it was the way he said it though.

Hahahahaha!!!! sorry, I just

Hahahahaha!!!! sorry, I just thought that was funny.  Did he realy call you a shmuck?

That has never happened to

That has never happened to me Brick Builders, and I hope it never does because i would go out of my mind from annoyance and frusteration.

Although I did see this little kid with a set I really wanted in star bucks and I asked him where he got it and he said back off you SHHHHMMMUCK! its mine!

I was just like "Ok! ok!...jeez"

Simple solution; run up to

Simple solution; run up to the little guy, look him straight in the eyes, then take it from his hands and RUN, RUN like your life depends on it!  Just kiddn. Not much you can do there man, only to wait and see if his mom makes him put it back or wait until another shipment comes in.

hedrought ih ave a problem

hedrought ih ave a problem when i'm browsing and then some lttle kids takes what i want to buy and the thing i want to buy is the only one on the shelf

Very good come back

Very good come back Kyoukimaru, I shall use that if the chance ever comes up.
But its always comforting to find out a friend of your also loves Lego :D

Meanwhile I also found out that a friend who acted like he like lego never liked lego, only is little brother did.

PS: He said that his 10 year old brother build the new Slave 1 without any instruction booklet his first time with the set... Yeah right...

There is nothing to be

There is nothing to be embrassed about. ^^

I have some friends who play football and baseball, so if they would notify me about my lego, I would just reply "Oh, and how is running after a ball all day different?" ^^ 

They're getting there though!

They're getting there though!

Man I hate pick a brick,

Man I hate pick a brick, they dont have a good enough selection of Minifig parts and acessories...

Hmm......come to think of

Hmm......come to think of it, I haven't ordered an actual set in a few years.  I still order a bag of Pick a Brick every now and then.  I would however like to buy one of those clone battle packs so I can make some molds.  I'd probly make up some excuse like someone said earlier like it's for my cousin or somthing.......Ah, who cares, I'd buy it anyway

A bit extreme dont you

A bit extreme dont you think Commander Vlax? Sure hope the stores in your town are that reliable. But anyways  bought the Wizards dark tower from Zellers and someone I used to work with was at Zellers... Man that would be embarrising if she told everyone at work I spend my pay checks on Lego. (EVEN THOUGH  LEGO IS AWESOME)

 

I never ordered from a site

I never ordered from a site and never shall. They say like 1 in 1,000,000 will get lost in the mail, I am would probabaly be that person. Besides, I prefer my own work only. Now lets remain on topic, I just helped soar off.

Whick ones?  Cause I'd love

Whick ones?  Cause I'd love to have some proof of someone who has ordered from these sights and recieved their orders.  That's my dad's main concern

It took me a couple of

It took me a couple of months to convince my parents to let me order custom accessories. Now they know that these are businesses  that we can trust.

i feel ya hedrought,my dad

i feel ya hedrought,my dad thinks every website is a scam,hes way too paranoid

And I have way too many

And I have way too many things I want! Lol.

A whole load of Star Wars sets, all the New castle sets plus the sets Castle siege and Skeleton Ship attack.

Some islanders from Bricklink, Some Bull warriors? (Dont know what to call them Lol) Alot more shadow and Rogue knights plus some knights of Morcia.

But yeah my dad is like to me, not right now! Plus I also got to check that this site isint some scam! The LEGO site...

Keep sav'in up then, and

Keep sav'in up then, and once again, we could be like twins.  I'm pretty much only allowed to order from the official LEGO site, but I'll try to work my parents over to letting me order some brickarms guns, those things are wicked!!!

Heheh same case with me

Heheh same case with me Urban Warrior. If it were up to me I would always order online. But its not its up to my dad... :(

Ah well he usually orders me what I ask for then and there... and I pay him back. Right now my plan is to get Troll Warship, Troll Siege Tower, and Dwarf Mine Defender. Next I want to get Battle Wheel, Troll Assault Wagaon and maybe another Mine Defender and Siege Tower.

 

Hedrought, we could be like

Hedrought, we could be like twins.  My room has TONS of LEGOs in it, and I still buy more--however, I find it a little less awkward when you order them from LEGO.com (their pickabrick section has been a constant favorite of mine) but I do miss going to the toy isle every trip to walmart and checking out the new legos--but once again, that's what I've got the internet for!

Also my room jsut has Lego

Also my room jsut has Lego EVERYWHERE I dont want any of my friends to see my room or one of my sisters friend. And Having a Girlfriend and telling her you still love Lego would be an awkward story too...Well depends.

Hedrought, I feel your pain!

Hedrought, I feel your pain!

Another thing is you feel

Another thing is you feel awkward in the toy aisle with all those annoying little kids running around the place. But what is more annoying is a parent with there  shopping cart blocking your view!

Or in my case, Gordon

Or in my case, Gordon Brown, David Cameron or...someone else, it still won't change anything in that region. Shame...

(Oh, as an explanation, I'm from the UK and those people represent the Labour Party, the Torys and..someone else.) 

And just think, Clinton

And just think, Clinton Mc'cain or Obama, it probably won't help the prices anymore.

That's why I love the free

That's why I love the free shipping deals on Amazon. I hope they continue, but with gas prices only going up it is a concern.

I feel like an idiot buying

I feel like an idiot buying lego too.

I almost bumped into somone I know from work... Lets just say I dont want people to know that I spend my pay cheque on Lego lol.

Correction, it is ancient.

Correction, it is ancient. But as long as there are post of recent (including his) this topic will remain "active."
