Legos make Baby jesus cry...

Ok, that might be a over generalization, but one thign is for sure.  Building that damned Star Cruiser is making me cry.

I remeber back in my day...hehe...legos were all basically the same shape and you could make anything out of them.  These ones now have all these custom pieces and seem to be more like Models than legos.  Talk about intricate.  What the blue hell happened to them looking like...well...blocks.

On that note, I have started to take a series of pictures to document the levels of my hell and how it is progressing.

I have been asked if we can get the X-wing when we finish this one....well my reply was only if I am allowed to get the Y-Wing.

What has happened to my life?

I will tell you what makes him cry, stepping on one of those fuckers in the middle of the night.

Don't forget the overlooked and underated B-Wing.

My son got the Star Destroyer for Christmas -- the $99 one, not the $300 one. That was a sumbitch to put together. And to make matters worse, one of my cats is always pouncing on it, so I find myself rebuilding it regularly. This summer, a super Millenium Falcon is coming out with over 5000 pieces -- $499.

F.U.C.K. T.H.A.T If I had a kid who wanted a a $499 toy, he could get a job. I hear they're hiring minors down at the steel mill.

Now Doc, you know darned well that kids are perfectly suited to work the coal mines. You get a gaunt five year old that can work into the fine crevices to get that black gold. That's the way to go.

I've tinkered with the idea of buying the $300 star destroyer (3000+ pieces), but I've read that it takes around 16 hours to build. Frankly, I can think of better things to do with my money (porn) and time (porn). It seems like while Lego sets have become fancier over the years, their stability has decreased. When I was a kid, I'd build models and fling them down the stairs to "stress test" them. Now days, you have to be gentle just picking them up -- like that Star Destroyer you're building, Baine.

Legos are the spawn of hell, the new versions that is..the pieces are so tiny you almost need tweezers just to assemble them...
