The front door looks like a sargofagus lid,the answering m/c says"You summoned me!",you appear in meetings with the "Cloak of Mirroring"and let the dog cast Fear on anything that moves!(Being a Rotty,he can do that.)Not to mention,getting caught with Viconia!!! by your girl-friend.

You know you have been playing too much Baldur's Gate II if. . .

you put "Level 10 Human Software Programmer" on the top of your resume.

you describe things in game terms "I totally rolled a critical when I was bowling the other night."

you talk to everyone you see asking them if they have any Quests.

you ask for a Peasant room at the hotel, unless you are injured. . .

When cornered by a particualrly ugly girl in a bar the egress options that run through your mind are:

- Summon some cannon fodder ('friends') to distract her
- Drink a potion ('beer') to make the fight easier
- Have a crack at her but claim 'My weapon has no effect'
"Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his pants for his friends."

When you made a mistake or did not like the result you've got, immediately think,"Sh*t, next time I'll take a different path". Then, start planning the different tactics for the same situation from the beginning...

I really do look for a reload buttun, somtimes...

-Your investor's portfolio strategy consists of a paragraph outlining the
towns you have not looted yet to display potential revenue
-someone taps you on the shoulder and you reply with 'boo says, what?'
-you look for mouseprints whenever you wake up.
-you take off your watch before entering a meeting in case it prevents you from casting spells upon your enemies.
When you have a trip out of town you figure you'll need to load another disc
to go there.-you don't want to go into a meeting unless you've been hasted and blessed.

Whenever you go out with friends you warn them that your ultimate goal is to hunt down an evil wizard and that it could be dangerous.

- You cast "Domination" before asking your boss for a day-off.

- You cast "Feeblemind" before asking your boss for a raise (and "Luck" to yourself)

- Before you enter his/her office you cast "Protection from evil" and "Negative plane protection" to yourself.

- When you want to buy a pet for your girlfriend,you buy her a scroll of "Find Familiar"

- When you have forgotten your car keys,you cast "Knock" (but the damn alarm sounds so next time you should cast "Silence 15' radius" before)

Before going over to your best friend's house, you attempt to cast Protection From Evil on yourself, in case his bitchy girlfriend is there.

If you start to carry dices and roll them before every move you do.

If you hunt for animal skins.

If you start to carry holy water for protection.

You know you're addicted when;

You consider your musically talented friends "Bards" and expect them to play music when you are in a fight.

You consider stay-sharp knives Daggers +1.

When you are in a pet store you try and find out what each animals special abilities are.

You start to associate your friends with the NPC's "So-and-so you sounded just like Anomen. Who?... Ah, nevermind.

Your friends start calling you "Balders Nerd".

Your alarm starts sounding like "Ah, the child of Baahl has awoken... it is time for more experiments...

You "get" every joke in the topic.

You are given a blue shirt for your birthday, then spend the whole day looking for an "identify" scroll so you can find out what's special about it.
