    I'm I the only one who sees a sharp resemblance between PP fanboys and Apple fanboys?

    I have a sudden urge to hate PP now.

    Hmmm... if I were to hate on PP, it would be because, whatever other price-related issues there may be, I get much less modelling joy out of their products, pound for pound, than I do from GW products.

    As examples, some of my recent GW purchases were a box of Dark Elf Cold One Knights and a box of Chaos Hounds. Each box cost me 150dkk (abt £17) and had 5 *gorgeous* cavalry models and 10 cool warhounds respectively. I then got to have loads of fun converting the knights into Eldar Exodites and the hounds into Daemon Flesh hounds with minimal parts required.

    My next planned PP purchase is an elf character model called Bethayne that comes with an ogre-sized monster companion. Very cool, and they merge together using magnets and stuff. But as far as I can work out (my store doesn't have them in), buying this pair costs about 220dkk (abt £25). Yikes. This is for a single army choice consisting of two models. When I have to choose between buying one special character, or paying much less for a much larger number of really nice models, that have the advantage of being plastic and easy to carry and convert, my money will go towards the plastic. Bethayne and her pet will go on the laterbase, for when I feel rich and really want to play Hordes again.

    I know that big GW metal models are expensive too, so it's not saying that GW is cheaper than PP in principle. It's just that the stuff I enjoy and want from PP is expensive metal stuff, and the stuff I want from GW is cheap plastic stuff, so in terms of pure modelling joy, GW stuff wins out price-wise.

    I also hate JUSTIN BIEBER:

    - His hair sucks, he seems like a chipmunk

    - He sings horrible.

    - His fans suck.

    Going back into wargaming and the thread... Gosh, this seems to have become a GW vs PP thread...

    Way to go, Jerk (you get the capital letter because Jerk is clearly your name).

    I hate that Wittdooley started a flamewar thread!

    I hate that I'm at work right now, and not home playing 3DS or something. Furthermore, I hate that things cost money, which in turn makes me need to have a job.

    I hate the line being drawn between GW and PP. Both games seem pretty fun (I've only played one game of Warmachine), have cool model ranges, and interesting backstories. Granted, both sides are holding the chalk, but can't we all just get along?

    I absolutely hate any of those facebook games that end in VILLE. My mrs seems to have some obsession with these games and my pay pal account has suffered badly. For games that are supposedly free they sure has hell fricking can't be. I ask why the **** it'd cost £10 to build an imaginary hospital, are you crazy woman. The usual reply is "why did those plastic men cost nearly £30. I then sulk.

    here's your answer: "Because the plastic men are tangible objects that can be held."
