I can hardly play Halo when I am watching the screen.
Not an avid halo player, huh? :(

Uhm..oh god..okay..uhh..
You know you've played too much halo when you construct a Spell making alter out of cardboard that actually works.

Hypocrite. :P You posted no joke, and you can read 40 chapters in the time it takes to post? :shock:

You know you've played Oblivion too much when you tell your friends how you went to Charcoal cave today, killed a bunch of trolls and bandits in there and then fought the ringleader who only dropped a Helmet of the Owl... and they don't understand. :oops:

Explaining to them was too embarassing, so I just said "Oh, nevermind,". :lol:

Edit: I am an eager Halo player, just not a good one. :lol: Though I am getting better, yesterday I played a Neutral Assault* and got all 3 bomb plants by myself, my teammates just got lost somewhere. :lol:

* It says the others DNF, but they quit just after I planted the last bomb... no idea why though. :?

You know you've played Oblivion too much when you start calling Burma 'Bruma'

i.e "Did you hear about what happened in Bruma?"
"Where?"
"You know, that messed up country in Asia, the one with all the massacres."
"You mean Burma."
>_<

Made me look quite silly that did.

When you wish the DB was a real legal faction and already have one (and only) victim for it. =P

When you wish you could fast travel instead of drive.

You know you play too much oblivion when you read "Hop on Pop" in the hopes that it will increase your acrobatics skill.

You drop raw meat on your table because you know it won't spoil.

When you go to the governor and ask to buy a house.

When you go to the beach and start attacking the crabs.

When you try to swim in a full suit of armor.

When you expect to find starving mountain lions in your basement.

When you try to stuff ten watermelons in your pants. (Along with all those pumpkins.)

When you walk into an unlocked house and start reading any book you can find.

Finally, you know you have played too much oblivion when you try to reach the top of the Empire state building using one thousand paintbrushes.

You know you play Oblivion too much when you go to stores just as they close, and you stand outside for 12 hours in the rain waiting for them to open.

You know you've been playing Oblivion too much when someone breaks into your house, you run up to them and go "I think you should leave.." And you just stare at them. And when they try to walk away you just follow them and go "this is your last warning, get out our I'll call the guards!" Then when they leave you fall asleep in 2 seconds.

You know you've been playing too much of Oblivion when you catch yourself looking like that :shock: when you see a just dropped paintbrush on the floor.

You know you've been playing too much of Oblivion when you try to cast invisibility on self, but nothing happens.

You know you've been playing too much of Oblivion when you try to put your plastic blade (which you think is real) into very small container, where only a watermelon could fit in.

When you jump off a tall place tiring to land on a horse thinking it will restart you velocity and you wont get hurt hitting the grounds.

When you test poisons on lizards thinking it wont effect them.

If you have your wall painted as the map of Cyrodill which i currently have which took 4 1/2 days to take a pro to paint an costed over 2000$.

When you jump everywhere you go thinking it will help you Acrobatics.

When you go ask for some Cyrodill instead of cereal.

provoke people thinking they wont hit you.

When you chase fleeing enemies for over half an hour.

think a deer running away from a hunter will accidentally run infront of you and you will be able to kill it with your fists.

When you jump on the gate when you are in an arena match.

When you talk to people you just stand there thinking of what you are going to say with a strait face to a complete stranger.

You play paintball you think everyone on your team is going to lose of a really really random reason like a it starts to rain paintballs and you are the only one in cover for it.

You drop food on the floor for weeks at a time and eat them thinking it perfectly fine.

When you get in a fight people are just going to take hits and not have body movements when hit thinking the same goes for you.

When you sit a a deserted location and have a alter and wait for a purple light to come to make black soul gems.

When learning about shadows you think a penumbra is Umbra's cousin.

wonder why only the redgaurds are in prision.

When you see a midget with a weird contraption you think its a ancient Dwemer device.

Hope when you kill someone Lucien Lachance will visit you first.

You walk into peoples houses and just see what they have worth stealing and leave without doing or saying anything.

When you think the Grocery store is the Alchemy shop.

Called your cat M'aiq The Lair.

Think Sanquine is a real color.

If you are reading this and playing Oblivion at the same time.

Stalk people thinking they wont care.

Through away all items you dont want in the middle of the town thinking its ok.

Decorate your house with random swords and armor while you have places to put them.

Your Itunes is full of nothing but Oblivion OST.

Kill someone thinking they are just unconscious.
If somethign doesn't look right look at it again.

But if you do that you waste more of you life.

What's wrong with this one? We don't need two threads.
I used to play Oblivion, then I took an arrow in the knee.

A viking is just a horny pirate.
