- You're amazed to discover that a halberd actually takes up MORE room in your backpack than a diamond.

- You obsessively start collecting anything that seems odd, thinking that since it's not a key, weapon, or piece of armor, it must be quest-specific or part of an artifact.

- You discover that chugging the entire contents of the white bottle marked "Speed" does not actually enable you to run twice as fast.

- You make a point of entering every house you come across (making sure to examine the door for traps first, and picking the lock if necessary), to see if it's part of a quest or if it just has commoners inside.

- You are convinced that nobody can see any further than 30 feet, unless they're a dragon, in which case they can see the whole map.

- You tell your larger friends that you shouldn't be the one walking in front--the Mage has to be protected.

- You tell one of your friends to go rob a store, thinking he'll be all too happy to oblige.

- You utterly FAIL to get that cute girl to talk to you--then you remember that you're not even wearing the right Cloak.

- You wake up in the middle of the night to go pee, then call in sick the next morning, explaining that you'll be no good to anyone until you're got 8 hours of UNINTERRUPTED sleep.

reason ... lol when walking you dog and someone asks the what bread he is and you reply giant miniture space hampster and you get wierd looks.

When you do you assignments at school and expect a reward of sometype

when you at work and refuse to do something cause its against you alignment

When you start each day and wonder what wierd or wonderful adventures you'll go on today

When you brag to you friends you did this or that in the game

When your friends ask if they can accompany you on you latest adventure

the worst has got to be when you see a good lookin woman in real life and think to yourself Jaheira/Vicona/Aerie are way better lookin.

when you go to every house's basement, hoping to find kangaxx's torso, arms and legs
doing no.1 and hoping to find kangaxx and send it to the abyss
you have a test (a difficult one) tomorrow nd all you do is play without even thinking the test tomorrow.(guilty!!!)
you're now in the test and all you can think of is going home and u already miss playing BG2(guilty!!!)
bringing your computer to school and play BG2 when your teacher is teaching(possible??)

A few more....

- You do something really cool (like talking your way out of a speeding ticket, or bowling a perfect game) and get even MORE excited when you realize that you only need a full night's sleep in order to do it AGAIN!

- You wander around town, trying to discover people's names by pointing your finger at them.

- You make a habit of breaking & entering people's homes, because you know quite well that they only get mad if they actually see you steal something.

- You get your butt kicked in every fight because you don't want to lose reputation, so you always wait for a red circle to appear around someone's feet before you hit him.

- You'll do absolutely ANYTHING on a dare--because you know you can always Reload, right?

- Even though the guy who's picking on you is 7 times bigger than you, you are sure that
A) You can beat him at all
B) Once you've beaten him, his new shoes will fit you perfectly

(That last one is really funny in ToB: Killing a Fire Giant, then taking their aromor & putting it on a Halfling. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Cool.

When you firmly decide that trying dog stew might be a good idea.

When you realize, after trying dog stew, that the umber hulks were onto something.

(But seriously, that space bar pause thing on different games is a real problem!)
