(1) Have too much lego but not enough display space

(2) Dust (so hard to clean off once you leave the minifigs out for a couple days)

Droping a piece off your desk and it bounces once, twice and then in slow motion it drops down the heat regester

I spent the next hour getting it back up. I also found another lego brick that's been in there for years

People at school thinks it's cool that I play with lego.

Hahaha that's so cool, my cat does the same thing. When I'm sorting I sit in a circle of bins and just throw parts around, which is very interesting for the cat, but even moreso she likes to pick the parts out of the bins again.
It looks pretty funny, like I'm sorting and she goes "Hey this doesn't go in here!"

How cool would it be to have a pet/robot to sort your lego for you. 'Is it the future yet? I was promised lego sorting robot monkeys!'

When I hear Spacers talking about how easy Castle building is compared to Space...and all they built was a handful of figs...

Anybody who critiques a style or theme should try it first.

And you'd be better off for practicing as many themes and styles possible.

The saying goes in pixel art that there really isn't such a thing as a 'master'. Finite pixels, infinite possibilities.

Castle seems to take more patience, parts by volume, and planning, while Space appears to have a higher relative demand for depth of technique and part diversity.

* When I hear people gripe about sets for having too any "POOPs" (Pieces with Only One Purpose)

There's no such thing as a POOP. Its just a term people hastily apply to parts they can't come up with more than one use for.

I'm usually a pretty nonviolent person but those kids should be beaten.

Right. Kids should learn not to mess with those that hobby is building/studying Castles with dungeons, torture rooms, and other niceties.

Totally.

*When you've been so busy between finals and lego-building for the past two weeks that your room is covered in paper and plastic building blocks and you need to find the receipt so you can return all your textbooks so as not to be charged $500 for them and you can't find it!

*When people argue about whether or not it matters if it's lego or legos.

God bless.

* Getting a great idea for building something awesome that isn't in the current theme that I am engrossed in.

* Realizing that the time and amount you have with your bricks is never used to it's full potential.
