what's your point here? It's mithrapride. We have almost half a topic talking about quote-in-quote and dual weilding bunnies.

As for the dark knoght thing... if it were ballista, that pld would be down so fast...

Or when you come up with a really lame excuse to leave a party.

The lamest excuse I've used for leaving a really bad party (I died five times in a row -- it WAS that bad) was that I needed to go cut my toenails, and since I can't cut my toenails and type at the same time, I needed to leave. Heh.

I heard the worst leave-the-party excuse today from a white mage in the dunes.

White Mage: I have to go. My girlfriend wants me to paint the roof. I've been putting it off now, and she's mad.
Dragoon: Paint the roof? You mean the shingles?
White Mage: Um. Don't ask me. See ya.

He should have stuck with, "My toes are cold"

Ever since I read that VGCats comic I use "My Toes are cold" as an excuse.

You know you are an ff11 addict when...

-You cant get to work on time to save your life, yet you show up to camp NMs two hours early.

-You find your self speaking likey-wikey a Tarutaru...

-...and you cantaru stop!

- You pay more attention to the price of Shihei than you do your stock investements.

-You havent played a new ps2 game since final fantasy x-2...

-...and its your only system!

-You sleep on average half the hours you spend in vana'diel in a week.

-..and you wish you could sleep less.

-You know the date of every holiday quest, but not the date of the actual holiday it corresponds to. (easter is when? Do convience stores sell baskets?)

-Your idea of getting some exercise and fresh air is walking from jeuno to sandoria instead of taking the chocobo or airship.

1: When you see a "You know you play too much FFXI when..." topic and immideately jump in to post something. (done this)

2: When you're a manthra and for a while actually think you're a girl 0.o I saw this happen to someone....*cringe* (not done this, and hopefully never will)

3: When you think of your family as their caracters more often than them as people. (not done this)

4: When you think of YOURSELF as your character more often than you as a person. (OH GOD I HOPE NOT

)

5: When you find out there's a ballista lvl 30, registration starts at 4:30 in the morning, tell yourself it's not worth it, then wake up at 4:10 anyways, without the use of any kind of alarm clock, and then the match is cancelled because you're the only one there. (Yes, i did this. Yesterday. Totally freaked me out.)

-when friends complain that your character gets more exercise than you do.

-you try using Final Fantasy names in any game you do happen to play. (sephiroth in Phantasy Star online? how about Jenova in Time Splitters on X-Box Live? Fat_Chocobo in Halo2?)

mozyr · Post by **mozyr** » Mon Mar 28, 2005 7:53 am

Or when you see said names on other games, you know where they come from.

I don't blame you, Batsu. 11 pages of people chiming in their two cents is a little much. I don't remember if I read half of it, but I'm not going back to read it now.

Maybe someone will compile it all and put up a poll of the best ones. Yeah... and maybe I'll solo my way to 75.

Or maybe you changed the folder's title to "My Moghouse."

Whoa long post ^^; I couldn't be bothered to read all 12 pages o_o but the first page didn't have this one:

when you think in auto-translates...

{I see.} {I'm sorry.} {That's too bad.} {/poke}

i've found a lot of my thoughts to be auto-translate phrases lately >.>;

Sadly, me too, especially with {Thanks for the offer, but I'll have to pass.}

It's even more sad when you think you need a personal auto-translator or at least something with buttons that spouts off a few phrases.

Neoshinobi · Post by **Neoshinobi** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 1:19 am

Kinda fits in witht the auto-translate:

When you try to auto-translate everything you say.

Baketsu · Post by **Baketsu** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 6:02 pm

I was talking to a friend in autotranslate quotes and it took 'em a while to figure out I was doing it.

You rewrite the lyrics of metal songs to fill the black, black magey void in real life...

They'll find pieces of you scattered on the ground. I am the black mage in your dreams. Fear my dark magic...

Traded my Goddess Hymnus for a little trick staff
the time of armageddon's near.
Some call me the son of the morning...
Altana knows i'm the end of hte night.
Speak of Promathia..

and thanks to The Misfits for having songs that dont require much thought to fit them to FFXI

I actually already did that. I haven't finished them up, but I've considered changing the new Green Day song Boulevard of Broken Dreams to more of a Dragoon tint. Instead of my shadow walking with me, my wyvern. ^.^

Hasn't someone done that already? I could have sworn there was some song editing somewhere on the forums before.... I'll repost if I find it.

Post-Edit:
Found it, or at least one part of it. Seems to be earlier in this topic, about page nine too. I was wrong, though, the lyrics were for American Idiot. Either way, I think there was more talk of it than that.

Post by **Sugami** » Fri Apr 08, 2005 2:48 pm

Hehe small point: Green Day is punk-rock not metal

(still good though ^^)

I love that one! I dont know why, it's just with things going on in my life it kinda tells my story, so I just love it.

My wyvern's only one who flies beside me....

Tell me when you make one, or post a link if one's already been made
