As a nearly 40-year-old man who loves buying Star Wars Lego, and who has a bread-winning wife, this hit all the way to home.
- What did your wife say when you sent her the meme?
  
  Laughed out loud. Then asked for a divorce.
- Yeah same, I sent it to her and she said. "I literally laughed out loud"
I gotta get me one of those.
I'm in this meme, and I'm totally ok with that. Hun if you see this the landspeeder with 1890 pieces please! Love you!
- That set is pretty dope.
Where do I get one of those?
Look at me! I am the trophy wife now!
Hmm... and here I've been buying myself all these Lego sets... Have I been doing this wrong all this time?
That said, I've already pre-ordered the Ghost and am pretty hyped for it because I've been staring at the old Ghost set on ebay for a couple years longingly...
...And I still need to finish building my xwing...
short hair bev crusher changed me permanently
I hope you mean the Blue Brixx Star Trek set
- No, Jean Luc is obviously a man of taste. Star wars is the superior choice, of course.
This hit close to home. Except the kids destroy my Lego sets or steal parts.
- Use the kragle.
In case someone doesn’t already know these 58 licensed Star Trek sets: https://www.bluebrixx.com/en/sets/startrek?filter=parts&order=desc&limit=58
- Those aren't Lego...
  
  Okay?
  If you want a more LEGO-like feel, you can probably replace the high quality printed blocks with some stickers.
This is the dream.
- Beverly or the Lego?
Only in my dreams... Only in my dreams.... Or VR I guess at some point.

- That's not the kind of joke made by people with secure masculinity so I think these few steps can help you:
  Picture a woman more successful than you.
  Accept that she is not a threat to your ego.
  Understand that your self worth isn't defined by other people.
  Repeat the phrase "Successful women don't exist ____(despite of/because of/for/to hate/to ruin/to mock) me." Successful women simply exist, whether you are there to observe them or not.
  Remove "women are ____" statements from your speech until you no longer feel threatened by them.
  Get therapy
- Sorry you don’t have a breadwinning executive level wife to buy you Lego sets.
  Better luck in the next life!
- Please stop projecting your own life onto OP, it’s not healthy dude.
