The SO's Christmas present

[fireheart]

So I am getting my SO this for Christmas. It is going to be glorious.

Especially since I've asked him to tell me the reaction of his coworkers when he takes it into work after Christmas. (He took the Zombie Strike "Shotgun" (I forget what it's actually called) into work once and the reactions of his coworkers were "Where the hell did you get that God Damn You <SO>". Nerf wars at work are somewhat encouraged, although he's being careful with it since he got them banned from his last workplace)

He got me a Vera Wang dress...my first piece of actual designer clothing It is GORGEOUS.

That dress is lovely. Some days I wish I was born a woman so that I could wear something with a little more style. Most men's styles are quite boring.

Though of greater importance. I hear a story about him getting Nerf wars banned. Please do not leave us hanging (or post a thread link if it already here ).

Nothing really major. He had a thing for starting nerf wars at work, one day he lent a nerf gun to another coworker who got a bit too overexcited and kept shooting his team leader. Said team leader was a bit of a party pooper and proceeded to ban them in his team.

you should see the nerf tommy gun I got, I got it from value village for like 3 bucks and painted it black, it's motorized.

1. Love the name of the store because of...reasons.

2. That looks like a Nerf dalek. EXTERMINATE.

3. The dress is very nice.

Funnily enough, there is actually a Dick Smith out there. He founded the store originally, then sold it off to their current owners years ago. Nowadays he sells his own food line and most commonly appears to tell people to buy australian products.

Oh I so want one.

Which would be why I'd never be allowed to have it.

That was his reaction when I first showed it to him. He made a whining sound and was like "ok, could we get away with less when we went interstate?" (Short answer: yes) but he held off.
