LOL reading some of these I went and looked around my house.

I have the Matrix of Leadership on my motorcycle key, a warhammer banner up in my garage, I plan to get an autobot tattoo (still figuring out $$$ and location)

I have action figures at my desk at work, pictures of my stuff at work, a Grey Knight mini as my wallpaper. the list goes on and on LOL.

I have the Stompa poster showing the cross section up in my cube at work. Found that 2 of the network guys also play.

Really don't need to say more than this:

I lol'd. Trees for the Tree God!

I have Adobe, and a friend who basically lives and breathes Adobe.. I wonder if I can get a summer project going that might turn into a free T-shirt design you can just take a print shop and have printed onto a Tshirt..... Yes.. I might actually do that.

Interesting thread,
I've never done this for gaming, but I have used it for my other hobbies. At work I had a very small LEGO set on my desk and used to read Brick Journal and bass player magazine in public.

I think this was especially common back in high school and college when I would wear Prana brand clothing and use a large belay carabiner for my keys. I met a climbing partner that way.

I saved my Reaper points and got a reaper T shirt. Its nearly worn out now, I wear it often. It gets some odd questions; most people think its for some obscure brand of rolling papers.

I occasionally will yell out wargaming related things.

Boss: GW did you get that report filed?
GW: No sir I almost got it done but I had TO ROLL A D6!
Boss: Ummmm

I have a MU lanyard for my work badge. No one has ever recognized it, but it is hilarious when people say, "oh, Miskatonic U? Where is that?"

Then I get to explain. One lady was going to read some Lovecraft after I gave the background, but I don't know if she ever did.

I wear a bunch of sailing t-shirts to see if anyone else sails. More often than not, they don't.

I actually don't have any 40k flags, but for some reason, I have a "Play like you got a pair" button from a PP tournament I accidentally walked in on.

Ive got (think I still have...) a GW 40k CCG shirt from about 10 years ago. Used to wear it a lot, never had anyone recognize it. Back in high school (1995-96) I had an army surplus long coat that I hand painted some Eldar runes on, no one ever recognized that either. People here in FL dont recognize much that isnt associated with ball sports it seems.

My main flag is for the Pirate Party, usually wear one of those shirts when out and about. Although my "I am Alpharius" shirt may become my dedicated shirt for my FLGS.

That is a great idea, might have to put a Miskatonic University sticker on my car now, instead of a Monmouth University one. Would be interesting to see who else is a Lovecraft fan.

Even on this board, it's interesting to discover how pervasive Lovecraft familiarity is.
