You know you've been playing W&W too much when....

you're confused as to why your horse (or any other pet, for that matter) gets tired after you've taken it out for a nice, brisk RUN all over creation.

you picture Hephaestus in your mind when you hear John Lennon's voice.

you try to cast Spirit Eye so you can find your damn car keys.

Just can't resist. . .

--when bored scribbling at work turns up phrases like "Ukabu" and "you snika no Trollie!"
--when you grumble at someone: "Trollie eats you later!"
--when deciding what class to make your character next seems like a Major Life Decision
--when you leave your key in the door, expecting it to be used up
--when you start to think of your cat and roommates as adventure party companions and your house as The Inn.
--when your roommates throw a party and you tell the 16th person at the door they can't Exist because "the Inn only holds 15 characters..."
--when you mistake yourself for Rich because you've got all this gold...
--when you catch yourself wondering which building in town you can Load & Save in...
--when you start to think of your co-workers as Trollies because what they say makes about as much sense...
--when you momentarily mistake a cashier for a Highland Rogue you can just slaughter and take what you want from
--when you can't find your shoes and think you can ask a forum about it...
--when you close your eyes to sleep, and actually think of ways you could've completed something faster...
--if you pause too long outside, you expect someone you run up and attack you
--you actually Expect skeletons to rise from the cemetary, and _This Does NOT Scare You_!!
--you find yourself planning out your next party composition at work, and ask a co-worker if you should travel with more priests, then wonder why they move away...
--you start expecting people you bump into to say "Run Trollie Trollie!"
--you get your paycheck and think you can just re-load to get something better....(*sigh*)
--you think you can get more money by just creating then deleting a few people
--you expect exiting your house to take a long time
--you get lost and expect a map to look like the automap
--sunsets start to dissappoint you because they're not as deep red as in the game....
--you see something on the ground, and actually pause to consider if you can pick it up without dancing...
--you start to think the neighbors dog sounds an aweful lot like a worgur and ask if there's any relation
--you cut yourself and exclaim: "Jubi baoka!"

much appreciation to those who sacrificed a posting to ensure this funny tidbit stay atop for us newbies!

One more for the road...

--when it makes *sense* to you that the character with the least Intelligence (ie the Barbarian) is the Leader, and the one with the most Intelligence (mage) is so easy to kill ..

(hey, wait a minutes ...sounds like an office!

LOL!!!!!

Oh thank you Lily for starting this thread!!!

For those of you who don't know - Lily the Ranger started this thread many months ago and the original thread got corrupted by the old board I was able to snatch (cut and paste) the contents so that we might continue to enjoy this FUN thread! Lily gets many kudos for her wonderful sense of humor which gave this thread its start!

More symptoms ...

When you walk sideways through the local shopping centre to look at the shops.

When your partner hands your a carving knife and you yell "Drop your weapons" "Don't be a fool or you'll pay dearly!! "
