- Sigh. Sometimes you look over your old texts to colleagues and they really job your memory, thank you to all my old hobby store work mates who helped me with this video :)

Every time I've watched a documentary about polyamorous relationships, I always come away feeling like there's at least one person who really isn't that into it and they don't think they have any other options.
Women are temporary, the dice are forever! 😆
Since you want to keep the people anonymous, I thought you where going to start every guy's story with "we'll call him Steve" and every woman with "we'll call her Steve".
These people sound really hard to handle. I used to consider myself a gaming nerd, but after so many encounters like this, I don't think I qualify. I don't fit in with the lifestyle stuff that goes along with it. God, it can be so bizarre.
I went to a store that my brother lives nearby to hang out for the weekend. A guy came in no one wanted to play him so me not reading the room asked for a game. I played black templar he played greyknights and guard mix. As he slowly started to lose the game he got more and more silent unless I used a strat or rule and he wanted to read everything. I killed all the guard his grey knight telaported in got surrounded and lost the brother captain. Without a word he grabbed all his things and just left. As he got to the door he said fuck you and was gone.
The person with the 'mental issue' in the first story was the person telling the story, there's no reason to be poking your nose into what people are giving or showing to each other, if he was hanging the pictures around the store or something there would be a real issue but it kind of sounds like the store owner in the first story is some kind of 'progressive' creep.
The last story cracked me up. The guy with the Adeptus strippers shirt was gay. Did not see that coming 😂. This is the problem with that type of person that gets offended for other individuals. It's not any of their concern and they should stay out of it.
Hearing the Dreck story, it makes me wish games stores just banned all political discussion. Nothing good comes of it and just interrupts normal people's gaming time.
You're a sound man Exile. Love how you were protective of the lads in your store
you IRL banned a reddit mod??? hhahahahaha
"I'm a reddit mod"
The SECOND you said “sandals” I knew where this was going.
My respect for northern exile after this video 📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈
The Karen story was so painful but ended so satisfying. Reject attention sinks, embrace personal worth
Back when I managed a GW store myself back in the day there was a girl who worked at a young women's accessories shop across the hall from us in the mall. She had a fancy for and started dating one of my staff. It didn't last too long and the day after their relationship ended she came in and started flirting with and arranged a date with a different member of my staff right in front of myself and her now ex-bf. We were both completely flabbergasted and shocked that had transpired right in front of us.
That Karen story hit close to home. My small gamer group of 4 where we all met in grade 6/7 and were friends until the end of university was broken up by a woman like that that got off on the drama between 2 of our members she was seeing.
Going back and listening to these old videos is great. I completely forgot about these ones
She smelled... not great... and looked not great.
I was never banned from any store, but i used to tease the employers at my local games workshop store. I know it is not allowed to paint non GW miniatures there, so i packesd some miniatures for games like Hero Quest. That game might not be Games Workshop, but the miniatures are citadel. Or i'd bring some very old metal GW miniatures, and stuff like that.
I got a bit of a silly story. Back in July 2019 I helped organize a 40K tournament, I even put up 1000$ towards prize pool(Top3, Last Place, and best painted army prizes). We had a fair turn up of players with some awesome painted armies(it was probably the hardest to decide who the winner was). Midway into second round of the matches, one of the players comes to me and the owner of the store about how a one of the Death Guard players was cheating. Apparently he was using a stratagem with a Deredeo Dreadnought that was FAQ'd 3 weeks before, so we went to investigate. Turns out, the player in question was cheating because his opponent did not know about the FAQ in question and was loosing. We politely asked asked the player to restart the match and not to try that. The player starts to get bit irate about being called out and I said as calmly to him to take that or lose half of the tournament points he got so far. He decided to up the rage and then the owner stepped in and said to him, and I quote: "Since you can't seem to behaving like a grown up adult(dude was in his 30s) I am giving you another chance now, either take half point loss, or pick up your shit and get the fuck out of my store now. Choice is yours."
