    Blatently robbed off the Football Manager forum but I thought it could be a bit of fun here so come on suggest your things and remember its all in the name of fun so don't start saying your accomplishments or whatever.

    Mine would be that whenever I hear an Accordion I instantly think of a clown playing it and make sure their is no cafe's near ala Broken Sword :D. Their is a busker in Dublin City Centre who has started playing the accordion now, freaks me out it does :D

    Yeah. I knew I had a problem when I had a ring in each hand, snorting crushed rings off the ass of a twelve-year old boy I called "Ring".

    You're about to jump off a high ledge then you remember the fall damage will hurt like hell and you don't have a medkit to make it better.

    When you're driving along on a crisp winters day and you see a hawk circling against a blue sky........ and your right thumb jabs an imaginary triangle button to arm your strela 3 and score an easy 150 points!

    • You call the contents of your pockets your "Inventory".
    • You smash the vases in your friends house looking for coins
    • When the TV Licence people knock, you hide in the box the TV came in and peek out the hole until they move on.
    • You call work assignments "side quests" and wonder after the year is out, how you still haven't leveled up.
    • You ask the chemist "Where the Stimpaks at?".
    • During a real life zombie alien infestation, you pick the crowbar as a good all-rounder.
    • You wonder why you don't hear a "ping" everytime you do something awesome that nobody is around to see.
    • You grab the announcement microphone off the lady in Tesco and say "I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite store on the Citadel".

    When you try to retrace every major global event to the Patriots...


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,371 ✭✭✭✭Zillah


    I keep clicking sleep but I still feel weird and tired. Drank some purified water and had a snack but I still don't feel any better. I think the radiation must be kicking in or something.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,992 ✭✭✭Korvanica


    ...you leave all the lights on at night so mobs dont spawn in the house.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,477 ✭✭✭✭Raze_them_all

    You think you would be the greatest soldier ever because you are good at COD, but then get told there is no respawn in RL


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,717 ✭✭✭Nehaxak


    You think it's perfectly acceptable to sleep in a pub as a means of gaining extra rested experience before the next day in work.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,240 ✭✭✭Iron Hide


    you start wearing a sneaking suit instead of jeans and a t-shirt.

    When you see a cat crossing the road late at night and think its a hunter.
    When someone asks you to make dinner and you ask if they have mats.

    When you start seeing Reznov around the place.

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,307 ✭✭✭weiland79


    My brother overheard me muttering to myself the other day " Friendly Huey inbound" Hmmmmmmmm:o


  • Registered Users Posts: 271 ✭✭Gi joe!


    Constantly saying: Killing Frenzy! Slice and Dice! Be the Bullet! etc in the halo announcer's voice to myself while also driving my brother mad.

    When I get him to leave the room I'll finish with the trademark GAME OVER!:cool:

    You start wondering how many turns it will take you to get to the fridge.

    You're driving along and as soon as a you're close behind a car you start feeling the gear stick for the fire-cannon button.

    When you find something you've been looking for and hear the "da da DAH-DAH!" chest noise from Zelda. Then triumphantly hold your car keys over your head with both hands.
