Default You know you've played too much of something OTHER than 40k when...

Half-Life 2:
1) You instinctivly duck around all windows... there's a Strider out there, man!
2) You avoid going to the beach at all costs - the Antlions will get you!
3) You play through Ravenholm when your friends want to see a horror flick.
4) After driving halfway across a suspension bridge, you have an urge to slam the car in reverse to escape.

Counter-Strike: Source:
1) You wonder why you're not silent when walking.
2) You mentally hold the 'walk' key when turning in to bed at 1:30 in the morning... can't wake the parents...
3) You automatically check every doorway and ceiling ventl in your school when walking through the hall.
4) Movies from purepwnage.com have more space on your hard drive than school work... and this is my school laptop I'm talking about!
5) You wonder how that haxxor got onto the roof of the building (janitors).
6) You practice cover ducking and snapshooting out the windows of your house.

The product of waaayy too much H41F L1F3ing...

<tekken>

You treat everyone holding something as Yoshimitsu.
You compare any duo of girls to the Williams sisters
You named your pet Gon/Alex/Roger
You see a picture of Bruce Lee and critisise him for stealing Law's look.
You see someone in a hooded top and congratulate them on eluding Heihachi
You await the return of Kinimitzu
You watch Indiana Jones films, and comment on how Ogre killed him yet somehow he was back for Tekken 5


Things I have learned from Tekken:
Old Men Are Hard As Nails, So Don't Upset Them
Cute lil japanese girls can defy gravity.
Its possible for a mountain to jump on your chest and pound your face into the floor, while leaving you relatively unharmed.
Sumo's still have schoolboy crushes.
Its possible to be best friends with someone who you know has killed your master
Robots have short term memory loss
waving a sword above your head makes you fly

Halo

1) You call little people Grunts.
2) You think a Lightsaber is a rip-off of the E-Sword.
3) You start humming the Halo theme song.
4) You start calling your Big Bro a Brute.
5) When you drive on a bridge you wish you had a tank.
6) You try to make a Plasma Rifle with your bros flashy toy gun.

Tetris:
You see everything as random assortments of blocks.

When you see oncoming cars, you drive headlong at them in an attempt to stack, and wait for the bus to pass, causing a Tetris.

You can sing, uninterrupted for eight hours, Tetris Music A.

You model your house to look like a Russian palace, and launch fireworks every so often.

Legend of Zelda
You refer to spiders as skulltulas
You wonder if there's a zora city in the lake by your house
You keep thinking that your dying tree was cursed by ganon
You are afraid of putting on evil-looking masks out of fear that it will posses you

Diablo II

Your expect to be reffered to as your Character type at all times... ("Welcome, Noble Paladin")
Whever you drop something or trip you complain that you didn't put enough points into dexterity.
When your parents try to wake you up in the morning you tell them that your mana hasn't regenerated yet.
You visualise a stamina bar draining whenever you run.
You don't eat cow, incase it explodes when you touch it, or incase it's relatives break into your house with Halberds.
You considers all threats as either Fire, Poison, Ice or Lightning damage.
You take up martial arts solely to improve your attack rating.
You check every chest or barrel for gold, but are always wary that they could be booby-trapped.
You nick-name people you don't like after special characters ("Oh no, here comes Shenk the Overseer!")
You name your children after the NPC's

This actually happened to a friend of mine.

Tribes 2
I hit the light switch, lights go out. "HOLY SH*T, the enemy blew up our generators, hurry to the basement!"

Others..

Tribes 2

When you stick to the low ground to avoid enemy sensors.
When you refer to a large person as a Juggy(Tribes slang for Jugernaught) not thinking about what that means to anyone who hasn't played Tribes2.
You think miniguns suck, and mortars and flying disks should be the primary weapons of the military.
Your in a falling plane, and you wonder why everyone doesn't just jump out and use their jet packs to fly to safety.
You think fighting underwater ir perfectly normal.
You always take flares with you, you don't want missiles coming if you fly to fast.
You have a flag in your house that you guard in fear that the genetically created freaks might come after it.
You think world countries should play campture the flag instead of just blowing each other up.


Sims 2
When without thinking about it you refer to sex as Whoohoo.
When you think people can choose to have a baby or not by whoohooing instead of 'trying for baby'.
When you park in the middle of the street instead of using the parking lot.
You think houses are cheap.
You see women and imagine how you would make them in the Sims Body creator...
You walk into a nice house and wonder who you would make it in the Sims.
Someone dies and you wonder why they just didn't plead with Death.
You avoid grave stones because ghosts might get mad.
You avoid telescopes of fear of being abducted and having an alien baby.
You avoid gothic people, they might be vampires.
You flock towards gothic people, they might be vampires.
You wonder why a taxi ride cost money?
You classify everyone as Fortune, Romance, Family, Knowledge or Pleasure.

World of Warcraft: (These have all happened to me)

-In a retail store, when someone offers assistance, you think "Ah, crap! I aggroed one of them!"
-When he gets his manager, you consider it an Elite add.
-Your roommate asks to borrow some cheese, you say OK, but ask that he conserve it, as "it's an expensive reagent."
-You explain your tardiness with lag on the stoplights.
-You have referred to an accident that causes major slowdowns on highways as "summoning an Infernal."
-You decline to take a trip somewhere because you don't have the Griffin point for it.
-You consider being ill as a debuff.
-Your local clergy have repeatedly refused to mend your wounds.
-The reason you have not been able to train a bear from the zoo as a pet still eludes you.
-People refer to you in real life by your character's name.

Runescape: (or most other RPGs
- You can't figure out why all these people are so pissed. You were just looking through their house for items...
- You also don't understand what's wrong with killing innocent people.
- Your mother asks you to make dinner and you say you can't, your Cooking isn't high enough.

Myst:
- You keep pointing while walking forwards

--Done that, except it was the charcter's name...

Whever you drop something or trip you complain that you didn't put enough points into dexterity.
--I said I wasn't dexterous enough... Close enough.

When your parents try to wake you up in the morning you tell them that your mana hasn't regenerated yet.
--Told them I hadn't regerated enough yet before, but never with the word "Mana"

You visualise a stamina bar draining whenever you run.
--I don't run. I walk. It doesn't decrease your block % and you don't worry about stamina. ^^

You don't eat cow, incase it explodes when you touch it, or incase it's relatives break into your house with Halberds.
--Halberds? Bring it. I'll nova them all to death. Little panzies. Kill you all in 5 minutes flat.

You considers all threats as either Fire, Poison, Ice or Lightning damage.
--Well, aren't they?

You take up martial arts solely to improve your attack rating.
--There were other reasons, too!

You check every chest or barrel for gold, but are always wary that they could be booby-trapped.
--I complain that the random generator is broken because there are always supposed to be 3 chests in this room and there are zero...

You nick-name people you don't like after special characters ("Oh no, here comes Shenk the Overseer!")
--So? Is that wrong?

You name your children after the NPC's
--Akara is a good name, thank you.
