    You start trying to hide in the shadows every time you come home late to an angry girlfriend whos been waiting up for the last three hours after cooking a romantic meal and thwacking a rollingpin into the palm of her hand....

    Not that I'm talking from experience of course :)

    I have to admit that I place alignments on people ALL THE TIME now. I got it from playing P&P D&D though not BG. I always like sneaking up on my friends and backstabing them. Or, when there is a mass of annoying people together you say to your frinds "A fireball would be nice right about now." My friends and I also like to guess people's stats. "Damn man! He has like a 16 Strength!" (But you have to think about it with moderation. IE: A 13 Intelligence is the equivilent to having 130 IQ, 14 = 140, etc.)

    i scared the shit out of my best friend when i thrusted my longsword at him. He didnt understand when i told him that is was just a
    natural reaction to turnip haters.

    Question- are there any nice, cheap, and sharpened swords out there i can buy? my unsharpened renaissance festival longsword costed $134! looks good though.

    Just buy a pirate costume and throw away everything but the sword and marker +4 on it somewhere.

    I'm going to do that and take it to the D&D movie when it comes out.

    You know you have been playing BGII to long when you feel the rise of blood in ur veins, you feel the call of battle and you scare the living shit out of ur friends when you lunge at them with a blunt object in ur hand, willing to pound them to a pulp.
    *running would be a good idea*

    Last night I was reading my daughter a Sleeping Beauty picture book for bedtime. At the point where the good fairies give the prince the "Sword of Truth" and the "Shield of Virtue," I started wondering to myself what the AC bonus of the shield and the Thac0 rating of the sword were. It's a sickness.
