# 10: When walking in the street and someone's standing in your way you go all the way 'round the block to get by them...

Anyone else?

LOL. Good thread.

When someone is being aggressive to you, you calmly state your intent to discuss the matter with them. Then you punch them in hte face. Then you re-state your non-violent intetntion to talk with them. Then you punch them in the face again... Image

#7: When you and a group of friends are leaving the building, you hear a booming voice that says: "YOU MUST GATHER YOUR PARTY BEFORE VENTURING FORTH".

You keep looking for rings around people to find out if they are friendly or not :-)

In company meetings you search for the dialogue option that will p*ss of your enemies and make them turn aggressive (usually option no.3) so you can get more experience (and possibly fired).

@geh4th - I have this vision of stumbling out of a pub, drunk as monkeys, with 4 or 5 mates and a huge voice booming out (your 6 chum is in the restroom). Everyone then looks completely awestruck and wishes they hadn't had that last Aftershock. Image

Good one!

Saturday night you find yourself going through the yellow pages looking for a certain miss. Imoen Baahl.

(we need more than 10!)

10 is easy. Image

You buy a sandwich at a shop, then steal a second one of exactly the same type before the shopkeeper has time to leave. Why have one Cheese & Onion sarnie when you can have another one exactly the same (even when you are only really hungry enough to eat one Image)?

You often get yourself arrested at the local morgue for trying to loot dead people.

When your friend says she had a good party on the weekend you ask her if she kept Minsc or took Keldorn.

No, Gruntboy, even better....you steal the sandwich, SELL IT BACK TO THE SHOPKEEPER, then steal it again, then sell it back, then steal it again......

Heh heh heh. Funny. Keep 'em coming.

When you drop your keys behind the front door by accident, you write off ever getting them back again even though its plain to see you can easily pick them up. Image

you eat with a knife in each hand because you spent your proficiency stars on "two-weapon style" instead of "fork"

And you call pubs "taverns" and barmaids "serving wenches". You also have 2 black eyes because of this and your friends don't want to go to 'taverns' with you. Most of the time you do go to the 'tavern' your friends (or "party members" as you call them) are most uncomfortable as you proceed to loot anything that isn't pinned down upstairs and pickpocket the owner and any patrons who look better dressed than the rest of the 'peasants'.

The only time you remember to eat is when you get that randomly generated "Your characters dont have to eat but you do" tip from the programmers during the load screen.

You leave your kid sister locked up with a maniac for month because you feel it is wisest to get your traveling companion in the sack before starting chapter 4.
