Jipay Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Well, you sure will live in a better way than the other. The hardest thing is to stay focussed on this objective because you will soon realize that girls prefer bad guys. At least until they realise they need money and then they will prefer you :-D Quote
SuvieD Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 I can't hide my LEGO. How do you hide so many plastic bricks? I finally had to move some of it out of the way and into storage. Most people won't admit to liking LEGO because of what other will say. Everyone who ever played with it as a child can't help but like it. Besides, older people only look at you funny until you ask them about how much some of the toys they buy like big screen TVs, snow mobiles and boats cost. Everyone will have hobbies. I prefer mine to many others. Quote
5150 Lego Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 Preety much everyone knows, and everyone thinks its cool. My parents,frineds, coworkers,and evenmy girlfriend! My girlfriend actually bought me set 8433 for my birthday,and my parents went on a mission to find me the 1:10 Ferrari Enzo for xmas. (they were unsuccsesfull, so they got me the new technic mobile crane instead,whitch i think is better anyways.) :D I have noticed a differnce between girls, and guys. I work at a car dealership as a technician. When i buy online, i have them sent to my work. (i don't like stuff left on my door step at my house) If i buy local,or in the U.S., it gets sent UPS,whitch gets sent to the shop,and if it comes out of the counrty it gets sent regualr mail, sent to the office. I remember acouple ocasions when i got teased by the guys at work. Once was when i got the Ferrari Scuderia Truck. I thought that some of the guys might think it was cool,since it does really look like the real thing. :) Not so to most. :/ Some just laughed, and shook there heads, others had there little coments. The other time i was on the work computer trying to find 8455 technic back hoe for a resonable price. One of the guys saw me, and comented "for that price you better be able to dig me a real pool!" And started laughing On the other hand when the girtls in the office get there mail, and if there's a big box for me, they ussually know its a lego, and ask me if i could open it in front of them, so they could see it too. There think its cool, and i even have lego converstions with them once in a while. All of my friends preety much know too. My best friend is the one who told me about the lego store. And if is son ever gets legos, he ussually asks me to come over and build them for him, since he seem to have trouble (my friend that is). Over all preety much everyone likes it, and if they don't, i don't really care. Being 24 yrs old, it can be hard, but like most, i don't go parading it around, but i'm not ashamed to admit it either. My girlfriend really likes my hobbie, and even wants me to build her a castle. Quote
gollum 66 Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 Like Starwars4J, I don't try to hide it, but I also don't make a point of telling people. I'm home schooled, so I don't have anyone teasing me about it. Most of my friends end up knowing about it somehow, and while some of them think I'm a little wierd for still liking these plastic bricks, they don't mind. Two of my friends actually like LEGO themselves. :oD I home schooled too! It is almost the same thing for me. *gg* gollum *gg* Quote
JoeMI6 Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 I'm not that ashamed of it, but i feel a bit embarressed when i buy a lego set in a shop in public. But most of my friends don't really give it a second thought. Quote
Zane Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 If I'm getting Lego in a shop and someone stares at me, I give them a good, long GLARE. :happy: Anyways, not many people know. If they did...I wouldn't care. Yeah, they'd tease me etc. But they can't change what I like. TT Quote
Asajki Posted November 23, 2019 Posted November 23, 2019 I know, bringing up old topics is kinda frowned upon but I found this interesting I originally kept it secret, until it got found out and everyone at first bullied me But they eventually brought me LEGO for my birthdays Quote
