You Know when you've been playing EQ too much or too long when..

Your driving home from work and just wonder why you didnt just GATE.

On that drive home, you see roadkill and wonder if its been looted.

When chatting on AIM or Yahoo you begin every new sentence with "t" or "/g".

You see the police and hope you didnt cathc aggro.

You complain about your significant other's low cooking skill after burning dinner.

You refer to pennies as copper pieces.

You're saying goodbye to a friend and think /wave .

You see the little rich kid at school with a new SRV and think 'man I hate twinks!'

You start saying things like, "hail a co-worker", then he/she looks at indifferently.

When you try to MemBlur your wife to avoid a fight and instead find the divorce papers.

When you are watching a program about Stonehenge on the Discovery Channel and you can't help thinking: They know nothing about Druids at all do they?

You actually do name your dog Jobotik and then get frustrated when he won't respond to /pet sit down, never mind /pet follow

when you look a real-life friend and see nothing but a big plate wearing, axe weilding barbarian.

When you log off after a 6-8hour day of playing EQ, you get ready for bed and you sit in your bed and say "Camp will prepare in 30 seconds"

Your dog takes off running from you and you say "PET BACK!"

You look for your cat on the tracking list.

You see someone and try to figure out what race they are most like.

You see someone you dont want to talk to and you look for your "invisibilty" icon in the corner.

You answer the phone with "Hail" and try to cover it up with "lo".. "Hail-lo?"

When you step on a spider and are disappointed that it didn't squeel like a pig.

When you say 'Nod' to someone in response to them telling you something.

----------------

Ok those are what I thought of. Id love to hear more. I know you gottem!

I can actually be quoted as saying a few years ago, my friends will tell you, "Man, I'm really running low on mana."

I meant money =(

Since I was big into IRC back in the day, I used to go from EQ to IRC and chat with /t or '.

I've also gotten lost in my car and tried to find the Sense Heading button on the dashboard.

I remember a similar thread a "good while" back, where someone told a story about going into bar... there was this troublemaker, but the bouncer told the guy: "don't worry, he cons green" Smiley: lol

hard to forget Smiley: grin

A friend of mine used to play EQ with me. We would sit at work and wait for the long line of people waiting to punch out to go home. We would sit on the picnic tables and wait for the line to go so we didnt get trampled. As they would all come out the door we look at each other and called a "trian". We laughed for a while over that one.

The story as I remember it was, A guy was in a bar with some friends and one was getting unruly so they hustled him out. As they were leaving the sober friend was apologizing to the bouncer and the bouncer said not to worry, 'he cons green to me'.

when you wish you could convince the wife to play too, manly just so she could do the farming plat for me while i'm at work or sleeping and she's up. for some reason she been saying no for 4 yrs now. when will she give up and play.....

Dont' know if she will give in or not! My hubby hooked me from our second date, then married me so he wouldn't have to two box! I think it was in our vows something like...

"Do you take this man in sickness and health and agree to always play pally to his cleric, forever more"

"I do"

Oh and no need to wait until he is 5, we have a guildie that sets a toon on a horse and let's his 3 year old run wild in PoK. He is teaching her the "feel" of it! Smiley: lol

For our guildies whose wives don't play it is common to hear...

"I have to log, wife faction needed, she cons 'scowls' at me..."

...when you hollar "succor!" while being pounded on in a bar.

Unfortunately, it is interpreted as "sucker!", thus resulting in an even more profound pounding.

...loading, please wait...
