    ... when you realise a million threads like this have been made yet we'll always have something new to share.

    ... when you argue with someone and wonder what you'll have to roll on your bluff score.

    ...watch a film and as the main character tumbles past the bad guys and blasts him in the head, you think to yourself ... he made that DC25 tumble check and used his vorpal pistol to blow of his head with a crit of 19

    ... try to work out what level and class legends like King Arthur is, or in general, people like Tony Blair

    ... You actually do carry something that eerily resembles Carsomyr around. And feel like chunking the occasional gibberling from time to time IRL :p
    I *have* called people gibberlings... it's remarkable how many gibberlings there are out in the scary place they RL...
    On occasion, I have lamented being unable to quick-save but that's pretty damn rare.
    On occasion, I have flashes of seeing something (usually in movies) that make me think *cheater* that roll was haxorred.
    Sauron: spot on... if there's any video game I'd want to bring into RL... *shlrrrp*
    DR: where the hell did the green plant things come from?

    ...when you drive through Iowa and hope that Iowa 2 has a better graphics engine.

    ...when you are in a boring discussion with your boss and wish you could hit the "esc" key to jump to the end of the conversation.

    ...you stare blankly at your work computer that currently has no games on it and wonder what on earth you're supposed to do all day. (working not being an option) :good:

    @Big Bald Ranger, I believe the flower pot thing is a reference to Mario 1 or Mario brothers (or both) where you would jump upon the green flower pot/tube like objects press up (or down?) and descend into them (feet first).

    [​IMG] ... Police break into your home after you haven't been seen for months.

    ... You think of them as Guards, not police.

    ... You try to open a door and if it's locked you shout out 'DENIED'

    ... You meet someone called Anna(h) and immediately start looking for the tail.

    ... You try to cast a spell at your parents when they try to get you off the computer.

    ... You *really* cast a spell at your parents when they try to get you off the computer.

    ... You call your mother/father in law 'Firkraag'

    ... You wonder why cheating to speed up a romance doesn't work in RL.

    ... You are rushed to hospital for dehydration but still manage to tell your best friend that you *must* defeat the Demogorgon no matter what the cost and that you will fireball him if he doesn't save your game.
