I am a huge ameritrash fan. I love their themes, excess pieces, multiple mechanics jammed together, and tons and tons of dice. My FFG lovefest geeklist can attest to that
http://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/26206. Something about euros just doesn't mix well with me. Maybe it's my extensive reading of fantasy and scifi as a child, my love of building toys with their tons of pieces, or just the sheer joy of being able to through 90 cubes of random goodness on the table.
That isn't to say I don't enjoy euros, just that they are not my sweet spot.
We fight over who gets to use the black boot.
Damn heretics. Good thing I have this big heavy boot to smash them with.
I find fantasy themes make it harder to get people to play. They want 'boring' themes because it is familiar, and they don't think they are 'geeking out' so much by playing them.
As a mail carrier, it was the theme that drew me to Thurn and Taxis!

Mature like Metamucil, maybe.
Being from Pittsburgh, where most of the women closely resemble sheep through their odor and body hair, I can undrestand how sheep might excite you.
I do however implore you not to attribute your own proclivity for sheep to the rest of us who were born in West Virginia. Thanks.

Yeah, not to diss anyone here, but most of the Pittsburgh women fit the description. Ever hear this one? :
What's the difference between a woman from Pittsburgh and a catfish?
A: One has whiskers and smells, and the other one is a fish.
The Pitt game pissed me off too, I root for WVU.
