Some people annoy you in various ways and then you start pointing at them and saying power word, <whatever>. Of course doing this can come up with some pretty colorful power words.

You wonder what would people think if you and your brother Steve go back home to Baldur's Gate together.

When you check in on what's been happening at the office, you wondered if everyone of your minions had "slow" cast on them by a evil mage.

While watching wrestling you wonder what level barbarians each of them are.

* You meet the woman of your dreams, find out she has a cat, and then dump her, because you don't want to spend the rest of your life with a Chaotic Neutral person.

* A couple of new workers start at your office, and you introduce yourself by your name, adding "but you simians may refer to me as 'Sir', if you prefer a less syllable intensive workout."

You start calling the grocer at a nearby grocery store, Ribald.

You are spending your 1 week vacation in Hawaii on the BG forums.

You look for a pause button when you are in a dangerous situation (ex. a fight at the bar, an argument with your friend)

You start casting people you know as characters for the BGII movie (I think this has been done on this board)

You sit around at work thinking of ways to occupy your wife/SO's time so you will have more time to play BGII

You extract and loop the rain sounds from the game to sleep to each night.

When your wife asks you to go to the movies with her you reply "I will follow your strength"

you never throw anything away because it might be "useful" later.

#1 When you gat posion ivy you ask your wife for a salve to cure the calim****e itch

Whenever your relationship doesn't work out, you hit the web and post for solutions on a public forum...

When you are in a tavern, and an ugly girl starts talking to you, you wonder why your Spell Trigger and Contingencies didn't kick in.

You always stick your hand down every toilet/urinal/drain, hoping to come up with a long lost "artifact" of considerable power.

You search through your girlfriends jewelry box after "battle" to see if she has the missing pommel gem you need for your +4"longsword"

2 real life examples that recently happened to me:

I was discussing film with friend, and I recommended her to see Kurosawa's version of Macbeth, "Throne of Bhaal". (It's called Throne of Blood)

I saw a carpet with a star pattern, and said to my husband "Look, the carpet has Negative Plane protection"

when you have a tune in the back of your mind...and it finally comes to the fore...and you find yourself chanting: "The Lord of Mur-der shall per-ish..."
