-when you are amazed that there are 4 different kinds of shirts at a clothing store.

- when you wake up looking for Dark Brotherhood scumbags if you are awoken by a loud noise.

- if, when surfing, you freak out whenever you see a fish, because it will try to eat you.

- if you are ever disoriented when you walk through a door and dont see a loading screen.

- if you wonder why jumping isnt getting you places faster than walking.

if you are at work and think "ok if I wash the dishes and mow the yard in an hour and a half I will have 5 hours to play before its 10:30 and I have to sleep" and as you play look at the clock and get more pissed every hour less you have to play

when you kill someone then drop all items on your person and try to go pay a fine and wonder why are arrested on counts of murder and indecent exposure

when you go into a shop and buy something becuase its only £100

when buying shirts you enquire whether they are exquisite or just common

when talking to someone you wait to be prompted with options of what to say to them

when you go to the bus stop and expect a stilt strider to be waiting for you

when you wonder why you can't pick something up that weighs 300kg and walk to the next town over

when you cautiously enter ruins of castles waiting to be assaulted by dremora

when you wonder why you fall over clutching your side and holding on for dear life after only being stabbed once

when you think you are the mightiest warrior because you were able to kill someone in one stab

when you talk to crab trying to buy goods
What is mind? no matter, what is matter? never mind

-alrite we'll kill him first then have tea and biscuits
-ok
-not biscuits
-alrite alrite lets just kill him
-hey hes buggered off
-he 'as hes scarpered

Whenever you are waiting for something to happen, you sleep.

You expect not to be seen by crouching.

You think you can get away with not eating or drinking for 150 days.

You belive that by going into old ruined factorys you'll find the plans for some sort of complex machine that are worth alot, the same with ruined buildings, except you expect to find the statue and shrine of a god, and you then go about stealing the offerings made to him hoping that you will be attacked by some random guy that has an item on him thats worth alot of money.
And lo ye must learn of the great war that raged fo a couple of posts and brought the citadel momentaraly to its knees
Lookie!

I tend to appear briefly and disappear very quickly after that, try not to let it bother you.

When you look at armor and weapons waiting for something to tell you what they do,when you see something shine and you think "cool its magic",when you acidentally steal instead of talking to someone,when you talk to everyone hoping for a quest.

When you try to press start so you make your footsteps quieter,when you try to find someone who'll sell you a pet scrib or rat,when you wonder why you got frostbite from running around in your normal clothes in 40 below weather,when you find a boat pulled up on shore and you imediately thinks "reavers!",you try to click on a shrine and offer it gold so you can be cured of cancer,when you challenge your boss to a duel so you can take his place.

You go to fancy dress parties as Almalexia and at Halloween you dress your kids up like Dagoth Ur

you know when u are addicted to morrowind when,

you walk into a church, walk up to the alter, make a donation, and expect to be asked whether u want a common or blight disease cured, or restore an attribute.

when u go to toronto and ask if this is modern day vivec.

start looking for a tribunal shrine.

when u join the military, u run around asking generals for quests, when u think that in order to talk to another soldier u have to b wearing the torso peice of ur combat uniform, when on ur first battle u either rush into battle weilding a claymore, or stay behind and cover ur friends by sending off arrows, or when u get hurt first u think u have a potion of healing, and if u did u think u can pull it out and drink it in time.

when ur in a fist fight, u think ull only get tired when someone punches u.

when u talk to trainers, u expect to see an option that says 'train' and expect u to suddenly black out, then u suddenly ur a little better at what u wanted to train at.

When you stand in front of an object and can't pick it up because you don't have your keyboard with you and as such you are unable to press the spacebar. (It was late at night...)

When you crouch behind someone on a stairway in public and then move back as that is the only way you can ready or arm for thrusting.

When you get murderous thoughts while visiting someone's house... no one will notice...

When you're waiting for somebody who's late, so you pull out your pocket PC and type RA.

When you wear all black(Dark Brotherhood style) and find some sticky darts, then start pelting your older brother with them.

...When your RL is lacklustre or isn't going well and you browse the Internet for 'modifications' in the hopes of improving it....

Of course... judging by the spam email I occasionally recieve, some people apparently do that already

And today is one of those days where some Moon Sugar would come in handy....LOL
