    When playing Resident Evil, you say to yourself "Zomg what a noob, everyone knows you use blunt weapons against undead!"

    You wonder if the local preacher wields a hammer, mace, or morningstar.

    You hope that in case of a zombie invasion your local priest has a good turn undead skill.

    You and your friends walk through the mall in a combat formation.

    You wonder what the AC bonus on your hat is.

    You wonder how much cold resistance your coat offers.

    You make a topic like this.

    Ok, come up with your own!
    (please don't call this a lame topic or something, I'm just trying to have fun :) )

    I think there is a topic reffering to this subject (although with Baldurs Gate instead of CRPG in title) :p

    Not for zombies. Stabby stabby is the way to go there.

    You wonder how much xp you get for killing the plot.

    You roll dice to decide which greeting you'll use.

    You wonder which rules edition RL uses. (I'm really curious about this one)

    You keep a spellbook with you.

    You rest to memorise the equations for your maths test.

    You wonder what your stats are in RL.

    You wonder what RL is.

    Geek Alert!

    Actually, you would use piercing weapons on zombies. Though most undead are immune to sneak attacks, who said anything about them? Stop assuming there, Undertaker. :nono:

    You hop like a bunny everywhere to up your athletics skill. (Morrowind)

    You happily fork over $30 for a t-shirt that says +1 Shirt.

    When handing someone the keys, you demand a Dex check.

    You always have 8/16/24/and so hour on long rests
    You never eat with a knife unless you tell everyone that you are proficient with it
    You want to press TAB each time you enter a new area
    You hunt some animals to get XP (Noober! :p )
    You consider every dark skinned human as a drow

    When you wake up in the morning and find an ugly girl sleeping besides you, try to cast Time Stop to give you enough time to slip out.

    You say to your friend before an exam;'' Relax if it turned bad you just have to reload and check a walkthrough in www.gamefaq.com''

    You press Z on your keyboard before going to sleep.

    You see yourself in a mirror and say '' Ack! I don't like this portrait I'll change it ''

    When getting hurt, you say you failed your Reflex saving throw.

    When under pressure you press pause so that you can think of a plan and where to cast your next fireball, you wander off to make coffee and wonder why everyone is still moving.....

    You think that when hidden in the shadows, you're invisible.

    You look down at your dog and say, "Right, Boo?" When his/her name isn't Boo.

    Worse: You laugh when someone says, "Right, Boo?" to their dog.

    Even worse: You name your dog Boo.

    Viconia, Jaheira, Faldorn, Aerie and Safana become possible names for a future daughter.
