1 - You are walking outside, and you have to do a double-take because you are _sure_ that you just saw a sparkly ? in the grass beside the sidewalk

2 - you accidentaly tell a friend LOL when he/she says something funny

3 - you keep hearing the Rare Discovery sound / zone music / other sound effect in Real Life

FlintAH · 02-08-2006, 10:28 PM

You;re driving down the road and try to take a screenie.

BarryT · 02-09-2006, 06:02 PM

[Removed for Content], those are great

You start collecting cigarettes lying around on the ground, exclaiming happily - "shiny!!"

made me laugh.

Camibella · 02-09-2006, 11:12 PM

When your working on your computer at work and try to scroll out to 3rd person view to see whats going on :smileysurprised:

When your driving down the road and say to youself "Is that a blinkey?" because the sun glissesn off of something in the grass. :smileyindifferent:

When you send a /tell to your husband sitting 36" away from you :smileytongue:

When you argue over whos going to go get dinner because you went last time :smileyvery-happy:

tracheaspider · 02-10-2006, 06:06 AM

You're not sure where you are in relation to where you're going, so you try to hit the M key.

Annabe · 02-10-2006, 06:28 AM

You remind everyone at a family meeting that you are the GM of this zone and that everyone under level 16 must despawn at 9pm Earth time.You refer to a handheld GPS as an in-game map.You want to type in /fol when driving on a long trip.

The term "ex-con" really confuses you. What did they con before?When passing a barking dog, you think "scowls, ready to attack"

You wonder why no names are displayed over people's head when you look at them.You jump out of your office on the 12th floor, wondering if you'll finally get another skillup in safe fall.

Zard · 02-11-2006, 03:05 AM

You catch yourself with the urge to run up to a large granite rock you spotted in the park before some other harvester gets it.

You enter a elevator and expect to hear "Loading, please wait . . ." after the doors close. (from EQ1)

You tell a friend that you're "getting tired and going to log" while talking over the phone.

You see a mother with two young twins in tow and think, "botter!"

Krooner · 02-11-2006, 03:25 AM

You catch yourself trying to pan the camera angle on your excel report

Your talking with someone on the phone and you catch yourself clicking your center mouse wheel because thats the button you use for team speak.

You refer to taking your significant other out to dinner as "Building faction"

When you receive your paycheck and look at the taxes taken out and as you grumble you say "Dammit! Nerfed again!"

Amiranda · 02-11-2006, 04:16 AM

you dream about picking up sparklies all neatly lined up in a row in the 30 minutes between the alarm going off and the time you actually wake up. And it doesn't bother you at all.

True events...

My friend told me he was going to go loot a Sunkist out of the fridge.

I have actually said "LOL" to people who said something funny.

While driving somewhere I instinctively think "I can gate back, and it'll take half the time."

My friend has called money "gold / plat"

I was going to the grocery store, and my friends came along to buy snacks. One said "Might as well make it a raid. " He followed us to the car as we all shook our heads in shame.

Oh and I forgot this one. When you are sitting at your computer, whether you're playing EQ or not. You always press your ventrilo button for any vocal action you make. ie. Coughing, sneezing, yawning, groaning.

Kazac2 · 02-13-2006, 07:59 PM

you'r at the mall going to get the latest expansion for EQ2 and wishing you had sow to get there faster so you can get a copy.

you suddenly start craving Gnome Sandwiches.

You see a hot chick at dunkin donuts and try to send her a tell.

you get a funny look from people when you start dancing out of nowhere.

you get confused when taunting someone and they nail you in the side of the head.

your landlord evics you because you didnt pay rent but you tell him you clicked the door and it wouldnt let you pay upkeep so you was waiting for the next patch.

you get home and realize your baby dragon is missing so you call the cops and they have you commited.

you get arrrested for looting an accual corpse

your name gets put up on Jepordy for doing something totaly lame in the game.

you figure you can just jump out of a bulding and respawn at the zone in and not lose a shard *GERONIMO!* *THUD*

you tried to cross the Qeynos highway and didnt take that oncoming mack truck into account *mmm Squishy*

all I got right now

xbraindeadx · 02-14-2006, 03:17 AM

Kazac, your sig made me laugh harder than any of your,

you know you play eq2 too much whens...

I got some.

when you kill your boss and loot his corpse, than try to get away from the cop by rooting him and running.

when your in a fight and try to ward yourself.

when your amazed with all of the voice overs on tv.

PaekNikl · 02-14-2006, 05:43 AM

You pass up a ride home from a friend so you can stay out later partying thinking you'll just gate home later.

TruckerS · 02-14-2006, 03:29 PM

I have the worst habbit of talking to my mom or my brother or a friend in MSN messenger and typing r or t before typing the message, luckily most of them have decided its just better to not even see the extra text at the beginning of my messages.

Yesterday though I typed /gu before sending my mom a message......

True story.

valadyne · 02-14-2006, 10:47 PM

I've seen variations of this before but I've almost done this before...

Driving home there's a stretch of lawn with one big cluster of boulders in the middle of it...sometimes when I drive by it I've almost pulled over to harvest it. SMILEY
