i was at work and wrping the burgers and people were waiting so i started saying {}chesseburger{}{}Do you need it?{}

hehe i got bored

I'm sure it's been said in here somewhere but I know when I've played too much FFXI when I try to auto-translate everything. I'll be at work or writing a paper and I'll hit the [Tab] key to finish off a word or phrase. The funny part is that I'll sit there for a few seconds thinking, 'What the crap? Is the auto translate not working now or something?' d'oh ....

i don't believe anyone has said that

Well, we are in the process of striking the set from a show today (removing, disassembling, destroying, etc.) and I was thinking to myself:

"I need a giant exclamation point to put over my head when I need another job."

Ive done the same thing Dukuji

this morning I didnt understand what my boss was saying so instead of saying "what" i said "mew? /huh?" he about floored laughing,

just goes to show, if your boss is an XI player he's bound to get a laugh out of your addiction.

You go through such bad ff-xi withdrawl on update day that you start watching Live Vana'diel

Thanks, That actually helped to hear the jeuno music, I can just pretend i am muleing

when you play metal gear solid 3 waiting for maintenance to be over and you suddenly say , "Para-Medic, this is snake, I've located the Shagohod, its apperently disrupting maintanence and communications with FFXI Updates, ....... argh... RObber Crab battle....gargfh"

dont ask

You know you talk to your rl friend too much on XI when you almost call him/her by their char name instead of their real name when you call them on the phone or see them in person.

I was sitting down one afternoon and thought "Hmmm....I wonder what my friend's family would say if I asked for him by Gietz?"

when you start doing emotes of dances in the house. i occasionally go up to my bro and Frisky Cat Dance (or just flail a whole lot i.e. /panic motion) in front of him. the best was when i got my bro, who is 23, to do a taru dance for a dollar. imagine a grown man jumping and shaking like a taru in distress!

and i still wear my cat ears at work occasionally. my boss gave up trying to break me of that.

Kitty earrrs!

When you wait in line for 30 minutes in Eldimere Necropolis so you can get your new NPC buddy!!!

When you decide to cut in line instead of waiting in {Eldieme Necropolis} so you can get your new NPC buddy...

I did it...I even tried to hide and place myself in line, even inside of a galka.

... when you curse out ppl that cut in line to get thier NPC buddy then call a GM on tthem.

ya it happened in eldieme necropolos about 2 times today.

...when you have a Windurstian flag in real life (which I do)

...when you're coming back from a vacation and think "Why can't we just warp home..."

...when you think the way to become famous involves cabbage

...when you do the goldfish scooping from the Summerfest event in real life (did this yesterday)

...when you say "lol" in real life...oh wait, someone mentioned this already ^^; (my brother used to do this)

...when you do the happy taru dance in real life (my brother does this)

...when you're trying to fix your ripped pants/that chair with the broken leg/whatever...and you reach for a crystal

...when you wish you had a yukata in real life (been there, done that)

...when you tell your brother "Hold on, I need to equip my shoes." (I have done this)

...when (as many other people have said) you have dreams about it...this happens to me allll the time.

...when you try to auto-follow people in real life (as I have) and maybe even get stuck behind a piece of furniture while doing this (as my brother has)

...when you call your mailbox "Delivery Box"

...when you want to cast Silence on your brother (as I have many times...he's annoying ><)

....when you realize there is no "cure" spell and definately [sic] no "raise"

Or when you believe there is

My brother has a much worse case of this than me, as you can see...

My brother and I went to the park one time, and my brother seemed to think we were in Sarutabaruta. There happened to be a construction site nearby, and he said that was Valkurm. Then he told me we needed to help someone get to Jeuno, and it was my job to cast Sneak and Invisible. Another time, a lot of our relatives were at our house, and we were having a big family dinner, and he said "{food} {Can I have it?}"

Two hilariously funny excerpts from Reader's Digest (a magazine) and my responses:
1) "The Windy City is soon to be home to the nation's most advanced and extensive network of surveillance cameras." I thought this would be the single least likely place for surveillance cameras...till my brother suggested my room.
2) "the brush was, in fact, Siberian blue squirrel. "I've never seen a blue squirrel," Wendy commented." I thought, Oh, not another person who calls him a 'blue squirrel'...

I am on the Summoner quest in real life! This has got to be the biggest piece of evidence that I play too much...What's even scarier is, I've almost completed it. I just need dust storms...Where do I find dust storms? Anyone know?

You are so lucky....

Lucky you. We have a Bon Odori festival in Seattle, but no goldfish scooping.

Win a Spirit Mask by chance?

A Spirit Mask? Sadly, nope...I only got, like, 10 points ^^;
