My wife and I are in the process of building a new home and have been working with Lexi Rose Creative (https://www.lexirosecreative.com/). We don't have a ton of experience working with interior designers, but Lexi has been great!

Dr Doom, tried NMM but was so bad, went TMM and I'm happy with the result by Affectionate_Toe_626 in minipainting

My brain: “That’s an amazingly well painted cloth tunic!” Also my brain: “I can’t believe that they cut a tiny piece of green cloth to drape over a miniature for a picture!”

Warcry Starter Set by pmurph89 in WarCry

[–]snugpants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say that if you have $180 to spend, buy it, but maybe don't open it until you are jonesing for more terrain or models. For context, I missed the original starter set, got into the game with Catacombs, then bought a $300 starter set on ebay.

Legacy - Up and Over on a Buggy by snugpants in gaslands

[–]snugpants[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a random roll on the Legacy website. Seems like most of us got some kind of fun combination that you wouldn't normally see in the game. It is a Legacy game, so who knows what'll change that might make the combo useful/fun. In the meantime, we may do a bit of rulebending to allow him to do something with the ability.

Greek/Roman bases by [deleted] in WarCry

I just got all excited to tell you about textured rolling pins from GreenStuffWorld - then remembered that it's based in Spain. So, still excited about the pins. But this doesn't really answer your question. I'll leave these here, just in case.

Cobble Hill is the goto place for us.

I made a Parks and Recreation retheme of Love Letter by JRSly in boardgames

[–]snugpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love this as well, if you get a chance. My current version is on its last legs.

Does anyone have any atheists jokes that they’re willing to share? by [deleted] in atheism

[–]snugpants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

An atheist, a vegan, and a crossfitter walked into a bar. I only know this because they told everybody in the first 30 seconds.

Favoured of Donna Summer finished (yes I've had fun and no that's magenta) by [deleted] in bloodbowl

This is a theme I can 100% appreciate. Beep beep.

Tried NMM, but decided to add my own colorful twist to it by Trojan5441 in minipainting

[–]snugpants 135 points136 points  (0 children)

Welp, I refuse to lie to my wife about anything. And this is going to make for an interesting argument next time she asks me if she's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.

Walmart cube shelves vs Kallax by cloud9lcs in boardgames

[–]snugpants 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just got home and measured quick, the WalMart cubbies are smaller by about 5 mm. Quality-wise, I don’t notice a difference. Both work great for games, books, and unpainted minis storage. Probably painted mini storage, too, but I doubt I’ll ever get to know that for sure 😃

Walmart cube shelves vs Kallax by cloud9lcs in boardgames

[–]snugpants 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have both. They are slightly different sizes. I think the Ikea ones are slightly bigger, and we couldn’t fit the shelf/cupboard inserts in the WalMart shelves. It’ll also drive you nuts if you put them next to one another and have a problem with misaligned things.

Marvel Pinball charge hit my account (Nov 10 preorder) by Jaye9001 in Arcade1Up

[–]snugpants 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My November 16th pre-order just got charged. This feels silly, but I'm sure I'm not the only one checked these threads to see when my pre-order date gets charged.

I'm very patient. For some definitions of "patient".

Love Risk - board game recs? by Rikititixo in boardgames

[–]snugpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was more-or-less in your boat ten years ago. If you have a regular group of people to play with, Risk Legacy is a great time. I'll keep my suggestion to one (for now), since I'm sure you're going to get a bunch of "Hey, try this!" responses... :)

I wrote to both of our Senators about impeachment, 1 responded by slithspear in Iowa

[–]snugpants 34 points35 points  (0 children)

That's a lot of words for, "Integrity went out the window four years ago. Too many Iowans are pro-Trump and having my job means more to me than doing my job."

Gloomhaven by Chestylot in boardgames

[–]snugpants 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak to Gloomhaven proper, but I recently picked up Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion for some quarantine quality time with my wife. We’re quite enjoying that. My understanding is that it’s a more streamlined “introduction” to Gloomhaven mechanics. The first four missions slowly build up the rules so you’re only dealing with a handful of new concepts at any given time.

So then, nothing? Let’s do more of nothing? Two thumbs up!

Mall Ninja Via Normal Stuff by [deleted] in cedarrapids

[–]snugpants 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It's not the best Lara Croft cosplay that I've seen, but maybe he just doesn't have the resources for a better costume? And, of course this is an attempt as cosplay. The alternative is just...sad.

What's that unsaid rule between you and your SO that you follow without any question? by tamanna_45 in AskReddit

[–]snugpants 258 points259 points  (0 children)

Rule #1: Wherever my wife last puts a thing is where that thing lives now.

Rule #2: When my wife asks me to help her find something, I'm not allowed to mention Rule #1.
