[QUOTE="Arkhandus, post: 4453910, member: 13966"] While I don't go around with a big sign or t-shirt saying "I love D&D!" or something, I don't hide my gaming hobby either. (I couldn't afford a cool D&D shirt anyway) -_- I haven't been asked before about hobbies, but I would mention D&D as one of them if somebody did ask. At least a few in my family are vaguely aware that I play D&D, but the fact that I'm not very talkative in the first place (and my family's too boring to be worth talking to very much) is the only reason it's not totally obvious. But my D&D books are right next to my TV and video games, underneath the shelves of my minis, near the short stacks of D&D/BattleTech/miscellaneous novels I've read but haven't gotten around to finding a place for yet, just across the room from my boxes of Magic: The Gathering cards and my Gundam models....so it's easy to see my nerdity just by looking at my room, and I don't try to keep folks outta there, they walk in all the time to ask me something or mention when dinner's ready or whatever. I'm occasionally checking rules in a D&D book in the living room when other folks are home, since I like to pace around while I'm thinking. I've mentioned the game once in a while, but not often, because nobody in my house would be the least bit interested in talking about it. Just as I don't have any interest in the boring stuff my family talks about. -_- I've brought D&D books on occasion when going to visit relatives, to read some stuff and work on campaign material or whatnot when I'm bored, and I just sit right in the living room or wherever while I read and write. If not for the fact that I know none of my relatives, not even my cousins, would have any interest in a game like D&D, I would've tried to wrangle them into playing D&D with me sometime. ^_^ [/QUOTE]
