Yes but you could argue that for a meme to be effective it has to have at least the smallest element of truth about it. Can't remember the last time I painted someone with unpainted lead, thought they would all have died of blood poisoning by now?

I'm sorry. Did I just nerd-off and get way too serious about a joke?
It was hyperbole; I was thinking of saying it was the first image sent over ARPANET but even those Eldar models aren't that old

Hahahaha. My opinion of him just went from "competent" to "awesome". This guy should be in charge of everything; he clearly gets it.
"'players must agree how they are going to select their armies, and if any restrictions apply to the number and type of models they can use."
This is an actual rule in the actual rulebook. Quit whining about how you can imagine someone's army touching you in a bad place and play by the actual rules.

When people ask, "What's the point in understanding everything?" they've just disqualified themselves from using questions and should disappear in a puff of paradox. But they don't understand and just continue existing, which are also their only two strategies for life.

Every single politician thats ever existed, heck even I have a poster with my name on it.
I don't see the big deal. I'll bet Jervis Johnson, Cruddance, and Jeremy all have posters with their names on them.

Self-proclaimed evil Cat-person. Dues Ex Felines
Cato Sicarius, after force feeding Captain Ventris a copy of the Codex Astartes for having the audacity to play Deathwatch, chokes to death on his own D-baggery after finding Calgar assembling his new Eldar army.

My favorite part is when this happens with a Commissar in-game. I've seen a Commissar kill the last man in a unit only to run away all alone a moment later!

The first damn time I ever used a commissar.
Squad gets wiped down to just the commissar and a priest. Commissar shoots the priest, and then runs away like a little girl. Survives the sweeping advance.
The fluff justification was "now that I had purged the cowards from my squad, it was time to advance back to the rear for more reinforcements".

I remember reading that in one of your battle reports! It brought back some good memories

The most popular quote is actually 'faith is my shield'. So a better meme would be why do we need Storm Shields.

Yeah, "my armour is contempt" makes it seem that the 40k universe is less grimdark and hate-filled than we first thought, since everyone is clamoring over powerful armour.
Also, "my sword is hatred" is a joke, since everyone and their mother is running to space-battle with one...
