    Been playing too much...

    Just like "We hate gilsellers" "Ingame couples" and "if FFXI were real/what to add to FFXI" the "You know you've been playing too much when..." threads will crop up.

    This time I'm at fault.


    But really, this one's funny...

    sort of.

    So I'm biking to work as I do whenever time and schedule allows for it, and I approach an intersection that's normally fairly empty.

    Except today it's not, there is an ENOURMOUS traffic jam snarled up around the light today, for some reason. And just off the top of my head, I think "Damn the lag is hideous today."

    Now in and of itself, the comment isn't that funny, but it took me a moment to realize what I'd just thought and why it was wrong.

    The really amusing part was that I didn't even get on yesterday morning before work, like I usually do.

        I've actually been watching a TV show and thought something like, "I can't believe you have to be level 18 to order that," or something to that affect. Thank God I didn't say it out loud...

          1.) You assume your pet is a chocobo and think of them as a source of transportation.
          2.)Whenever you do something such as waveing to someone you say "/wave"

          Which FF Character Are You?

            I used to be heavily into Halo2, 4+ hours daily for over a year. I have several stories of what I've said IRL that related to Halo, but I can't quite remember them all. My very first one sticks out to me:

            My dad called me in my dorm and asked when I was driving home for Christmas Break, and I told him, "Well my last final is on the 16th so I'll be back to base on the 17th or th 18th."

            If I remember any more of them I'll post them.

                  I was watching TV with a friend (Whose house I took care of for two weeks), and there was a trip to China offered on the local news station. I was a stone's throw from saying "Fucking gilsellers", but stopped myself.

                    I find myself thinking (and almost saying) "lol" or "lawls" more and more nowadays.

                    Quite a few times I have been tempted to say (and said) party instead of group. It's a great way to attract random attention to yourself.

                    In driver's ed one day I was half asleep and I had FFXI on the brain. The teacher was explaining something about parallel parking and he was giving all these steps and instructions. I randomly asked in my mind "and who refeshes the whm?" And started to giggle when I realized what I had asked.

                        I talk in internet terms sometimes.
                        I sometimes call real money gil.
                        I look for my compass in the bottom left of my field of vision.

                          Now that you mention it, I call real money gil, or more correctly, "gilzors" (my actual in-game term for gil. The -zor ending is kind of a linkshell thing. Gilzors, spellzors, boatzor...) inside my head. I don't think I've done it aloud yet...yet.

                            actually i try to call money gil all the time. I think everyone wishes here that RL was a little bit more like ff lol.

                            Also i catch myself thinking the word ROFl in my head when i see something funny.

                              Ive though /wave

                              And I play planetside. Sometimes Ill want to switch to third person mode to see around a corner. I'll think that I saw a cloaker (invisible person) and the corner of an invisibility bubble.

                              I swear theres a bubble outside my back porch, I see it there every day.
