You need to be when half your land is under sea level. It's evolution in action.


That just gave me a great mental picture of gigantic blondes walking around with their heads just barely above water.

I was stationed on the Dutch ship Rotterdam twice, Dutch people are massive.

I think its the ridiculous amount of dairy you consume. Every damn meal was milpk, cheese, yogurt, and cartons of karnemilk.

And they say British food is bad!

I was having a long running joke with the chefs on board, every time they saw me in the canteen they would shout "eeyt schmackluck Matty!"

Excuse the spelling, but I remember the phrase.

We are arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS, who is fighting Iran, who is fighting Iraq who we also support against ISIS, while fighting Kurds who we support while they are fighting Syrian rebels.

I think Wargamers are tall in general.


Yeah, I'm just under 6' and my two main wargaming friends are both at 5'10"+. I don't think I've ever seen a really, (like under 5'6") guy wargaming.


My friend plays Eldar. He's 5'1". and 14. You think you got shafted, KC?
