This is true

:
One of my friends bought an old dagger from the knife store. It looks pretty cool and cost him a fortune. I actually asked how many gold it cost! I didn't even notice my mistake until he started laughing.

If you have to go to a relationship councillor and you ask where you can find a shadowkeeper that will help you gauge your "lovetalk" rating

You MEMORISE the context of all the "history of the _____" books in BGII.

you try to make up stats for yourself; then, make stats for everyone around you, and condescendingly say to your little brother "bah, a mere 15 STR". You interpret the puzzled look on his face as a lack of INT.

You hex-edit the game to put in porn movies whenever you're supposed to be having sex. Then you edit the movies to change all the faces to game characters' faces

You search through sewers, guarded buildings, and graveyards for lots of impressive goodies. Upon finding some hobo's rags, you proudly proclaim: "Cloak of the Sewers!" and expect to be turned into a mustard jelly.
Upon finding a grave, you look for stakes and then wait for the little sword symbol to appear.
You start muttering some words in the middle of the street really loudly. When you see police rushing at you, you exclaim in anger: "Must I get that stinking license in EVERY city!!!!"

You try to bring along gold and silver pantaloons on your visit to an asylum so that wierd coot in Cell 72 will give you coded messages.

You're teachers gives you a read book to read and you tell him/her you can't read it since you're not an arcane spellcaster.

When buying clothes, you look for class restrictions.

Your entire day is equally divided between playing BG and checking out these forums.

Jenna, LOL @ your post.

I identified with it, and showed my partner (so that she couldn't say BG obsession was just a male thing) and she said she wanted to get in touch with your partner and start a new chat room "Orphans of Baldur's Gate"

Haven't read all these so I don't know if anyone's posted this one yet...this is more BGI but makes an appearance at the start of II...

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..."

This actually happened to me...
