... you run around your house wearing spandex and dancing stupid.

... you strike a dramtic pose and toss off a couple of one liners.

... you get the crap kicked out of yourself trying to stop some gangs and wonder where the button to teleport back to the hospital is.

... you try running and wonder why you can't use your superspeed.

. . . when your girl/boyfriend has said "Honey, why do you keep saying slash T and my name?"

Re: you know you've played too much CoH when.....

When you stop hanging out with your friends becasue they havent invited you to their super group.

When you pick fights with kids and shout Instant Healing Activate!

When you start to hear different music everywhere you go.

When you black out taking the subway.

When you see CoH at a game store and thing, "Holy sh*t they made a game of it."

Re: you know you've played too much CoH when.....

...you have far too many 2-hour, awkward phone conversations concerning what you did in Paragon this week.

...you actually start referring to the games as "CoH" and "CoV."

...you start telling your friends to refer to you as your favorite online character. "Just call me Mr Brightside, fellas." :P

...it's been so long since you've left the house that the reflection of the sun on your skin can actually start brush fires.

Malicious

HaHa, that is hilariously sad. I love it!

Damn you freud! (I was thinking of Zoolander the period before hand), I thought up a few more.

. . . When you start referring to your children as “My Alts”

. . . You walk through the Bay looking for n00bs to pwn

. . . Before you get in to a fight with the school bully you ask your friend to punch you. “Come on man, I can one shot him if I use defiance.”

. . . your friends no longer let you give them directions “Dude, what the hell? You just take the yellow line.”

. . . you have started an petition to get the space needle taken down so you can have room for atlas.

. . . you have tried to get your parole officer to count cleaning up the streets of paragon as community service.

. . . if you friend is late for class and you say "Dude, your travel sucks."

. . . you have lost your social life. (Not really that funny, its just what happened to me when I started playing City of Heroes :P)

. . . you break with your girlfriend for "cheating" on you. "You slut! World of Warcraft? What does that gnome have that I dont got?"

. . . you are no longer allowd in to comic book stores for attacking the prop ups. "Thats bull! Superman is a total hack! He copied my tanker!"

. . . you get the chair for LARPing your AR blaster.

. . . you decide that you dont have Super Reflexs the hard way

That’s it for now, I will post more as I think of them!

Re: you know you've played too much CoH when.....

- when your keyboard falls apart from pushing the buttons to type or activate powers so often

- When your mom comes in to wake you up you tell her that you can't get up because you don't have enough stamina

- After running a mile you curse because Rest isn't recharged yet

- You jump out the window of your workplace and desperately try to activate your teleport power but find that you are out of stamina (and you can't teleport)

- When at the end of the day you go home to a lonely house, dark damp and without any real furniture (pizza box's and cinderblocks) and still feel at home because you have your Computer and a CoH Sub

- When you sacrifice food money for a CoH sub

- When you find yourself waking up in the middle of the night after having a nightmare about the 5th colomn returning.

- When you have actually calculated how many costume combinations there are in the game (Cryptic estimated the total possible costume combinations at 2.24 Quadrillion) and then you figure that you need to correct them, "There are 2.2453 quadrillion"

Re: you know you've played too much CoH when.....

You refer to your morning coffe as an "Awaken."

When you spot the maintanance stairs to the roof left unlocked, you go up and look for badges.

Your Windows wallpaper is a CoH screenshot.

You appraise weapons at the sports shop in terms of how fast they could take down Council.

You think the Satanic Bible ripped off the Hellions.

You look at the excavation for the new stadium and think, "Grendel's Gulch is a lot bigger."

You dressed up as Back Alley Brawler for Halloween.

When you go to the park, you check each group of people for an Embalmed, Damned, Bone Daddy, etc.

You watch a viking movie and wonder why everyone has a helmet like Statesman's.

You're surprised whenever you see a cop doing anything other than cower.

When you run out of things to do at work, you ask your boss if he has any more "missions."

You ditch work (or school) to play CoH.

You can't find Band-aids at the drugstore because you keep expecting them to be green.

You look at someone who looks interesting and think, "I should have given Cpl. Claymore hair like that."

You carry around a memory stick full of screenshots to show your friends.

When you send pictures to your family in other states, they're all of your CoH characters.

You bought a broadsword at a smoke shop because it looks like the one your scrapper has.

You write down things to remember to do next time you're on CoH.

You think of running out of subscription time as a major disaster.

When traffic gets really bad, you complain about all the lag.

You accidentally say "Infront" instead of "Outback" or "Major Flanders" instead of "KFC."

When your friends get stuck in traffic on their way to meet you, you wish you had Recall Friend.

You lose a tennis match and blame it on Statesman and his nerfs.

You know which geek at your local Geek Squad knows what parts are incompatible with the latest CoH version.

You uninstalled Minesweeper in an attempt to cut down on lag.

You refer to the paramedics as "defenders."

You call the canal between Mesa and Tempe a "zone barrier."

You have a map of Paragon City hung in your cubicle, with colored pins and little flags all over it.

Just one of those pins is yellow, with a red "X."

You try to figure out your MA scrapper's moves.

You get in an argument at the game store about whether Batman is Natural origin or Technology origin.

At Mervyn's, you catch yourself considering whether items of real clothing will look right with your powers.

You tried to defeat enough witches on Halloween to earn a pointy hat.

You keep thinking you hear glowies at the office.

You got a jaywalking ticket for trying to walk down the median.

You avoid the alleys downtown because you don't want to run into a mob of clocks.

You walk up the stairs sideways and backwards.

Your RL child has a numeral or puncuation mark in his name because all the normal names were taken.

You read this far down the thread and got every single joke.

- You spend 8 hours in a nearby park expecting Kraken to show up.

-You catch a cold from standing in a lake waiting for Sally.

-When dealing with basic Chemistry, and you see electrons and protons, you instead see "electrons and positrons", and you instantly run the other way.

-When you see jello with fruit in it, you instantly call out for 25 lvl 50 controllers to come help out.

-Whenever you see a parked boat, you instantly want to go look for green ghosts.

-Whenever someone swears, your mind acts like a typewriter, with the words saying " blah blah !$%!@# blah blah 1$#%!@^."

You won't go to Chinatown because the Tsoo will pwn you.

You ask cliques at work or school if you can join their "SG."

You tell the beggars on Main Street you don't have any influence.

You see drug dealers on the corner and hope they don't aggro you.

You spot a junkpile in the alley and look around for any other sign of a Paladin build.

- When you have ate so much food at your desk that you turn your keyboard over and so many crums fall out that you could make another meal (even worse if you eat said meal later)

- When your TV hasn't been turned on in so long that when you do turn it on (only during server maintenance) it chokes dust out of the speakers.

- People who don't play CoH but know you through other IM situations think you have died (true story)

Guilty :P

Since I got my Cable Modem and got rid of my SDSL I have watched maybe 2 hours of TV total over the past couple of weeks.

It's not really that bad. you have no interaction with a TV, basically its brain (CENSORED) and I prefer to interact with my media not just be a drooling, braindead couch potato that let's information stream at it with no control.

Not to mention after watching it for about 2 hours I start to get a screaming headache, TVs make a whistling high pitched noise that's straight from hell, if I was supicious I would think it was a brain control signal meant to make you crave whatever they broadcast no matter how innane it was.

TVs are passe` DUMP TV! Send it the way of Radio, 8-Track/cassette, BetaMax/VHS and Phonograph/Record Players.

TV is for SAPS! Remove your Heinie from that cushion and plant it in front of your computer! NOW!

REPENT TV SINNERS! ACCEPT THE POWER OF THE INTERNET AND BE CLEANSED!!!
