    I can't be bothered to check if and what I've already said, so here goes:

    • If you refer to attractive people as potential romantic NPCs
    • If you tell your friend she would look great with elven ears
    • If even your girlfriend has played it. :shake:

    1. If you are at work and answering a client's phonecall you say:
    "(insert company name) good day!It is (insert your name and position) speaking... but you simian may refer to me merely as "sir" if you prefer a less syllable intensive workout"

    2. If your family reunion starts to look more like a bunch of dragons with feet like rabbits.

    3. If you wave your hands and mumble a few latin-like magical words just before releasing a stinking cloud out of your behind.

    Actually, I remember waving my fingers as if casting fireball when dancing in a club... Not to mention I was dressed in black and white colours. Cliche, wasn't it? ;)

    You buy your grandmother a heavy mace so that you don't have to worry about her when she collects her pension every Tuesday at the postoffice, while you are at work.

    -when your friends say they will freak out if they hear you yelling about 'boo' one more time

    -if you hurt your finger and want to rest

    -if you look at your gf's face and suddenly see aerie....not that that ever happened to me....no... :rolleyes:

    when you want to eat with 2 knives since slashing is better than piercing vs. meat...

    The best way to end an argument with your daughter is to agree with, "Yes oh omnipresent authority figure."

    You ask your environmental conscious aquaintences, "If a tree falls in the forest, will you kill the b*****d what done it?"

    Under your breath, you snidely reply to your pain-in-the-butt boss, "Sleep lightly, taskmaster." :evil:

    To the computer person who is explaining something technical, 'I do not understand this 'mouse magic' that you do."

    You use any NPC comment in a PnP D&D game to score 'role-playing experience' with the DM.

    Edit: Yes! My favorite gem! :cool:

    ... you wonder if you could Power Word: Kill your "Uninjured" boss before they fire you.

    ... you watch a nature documentary and find yourself thinking, "Go for the eyes, Boo - go for the eyes!"

    ... you wonder how long it will take before your relationship status = 2.

    ... you laugh at the idea of someone wearing plus-fours - because they're not plus-fives.

    You Begin to think that Angus Young is a level 23 bard with Grand Mastery in Guitars. (I do)

    You wonder when you'll finaly get some HLA

    You think ''q'' is for saving in every single program

    You feel uneasy when ''q'' doesn't save in a game

    You go to a book store and ask if they have scrolls of protection against Hangover

    You look at a mirror and say '' I don't like this portrait anymore! ''

    You want to meet Lonk the Sane

    You wonder if Irenicus was a Nazi

    You wonder if wearing that new belt you bought will give you extra strenght

    edit: OHHHhhh! A new gems! Pearl Eh?

    You're playing with a Game Boy Advance and look for the spacebar to try and pause.

    You're watching a DVD in SonicStage and hit spacebar to pause.

    You're watching a movie on Tivo and look for the spacebar to try and pause.
