You know you are addicted to Arm when ...

[Winterless]

...when this makes you smile way more than it should, and snicker a little, too.

emote is left speechless.

The video title is incorrect ... Daler Mehndi is a punjabi sikh, so "arab" is a bit of a misnomer.

Nonetheless, this is what I imagine the gemmer quarter looks like most evenings.

Except... it's titled Tuluk Tuluk, and those men are obviously 'gickers. They would be Tuluk's worst nightmare. Oh! That gives me an idea for the Odd Urges thread!

Tunak Tunak Tun!

Man... we used to get soooo wasted and watch that video on a projector in our college dorm room. We had the dance down pat. Down pat.

You tab away from the mud client window to vote ... three times during one play session.

EDIT: Jesus ... now every time I think about an 'gicker casting magick I envision scenes from that Tunak Tunak Tun video ... I don't think I can RP magick as scary anymore.

[Pale Horse]

When you consistently play the game for a decade.

I hit my ten year mark, this year.

You highlight text on webages and in documents because you realize that it is more comfortable reading in negative light.

Bwahaha! I do that all the time, to many confused and annoyed on-lookers. (One word, two words? Hyphenated, not?)

My roommate does that. Drives me insane when I'm trying to read something and he keep clicking and highlighting and moving the page. I want to shoot him.

[Gagula]

You pass up the opportunity to go to a seafood joint, on someone else's tab, to play Arm.  (And yes, I am a larger person)

[Vessol]

When you realize you've never been addicted 

[Zira]

When you dream about riding a large cockroach.

[SMuz]

When you write up a solo emote script at 1 AM. Possibly one that you'll never even use. And then force yourself to sleep, so you could wake up at 6 AM, when all the peak players are in the game. Crap, it's become a bit of a routine - brush teeth, turn on Internet, toast some waffles, enter Arm, then take a shower during the next IC night or weekend.

..but that is just crazy.

[Medena]

When you are browsing the TV listings and you jerk back with surprise at seeing a show called "Spice".

[Dan]

A bag full of raw meat doesn't look so bad afterall if you get hungry.




(It looks great if you are Ghost, and said bag of meat is actually a bag of dicks)

[Gunnerblaster]

You know your addicted when you play other games but still continue to reference back to ARM.

"Dude! That boss just 2-hit my character, wtf?"

Then you and your friend go into joking ARM dialogue:

You reel from the blow.
Big monster slaps you on the body, doing frightening damage.

When you're sitting in front of your computer naked because you just got out of the shower (45 minutes ago), with four minutes left to get out of the house to go to work or you'll be late and you're reading this thread from start to finish and debating on logging in just to see if there's any new posts on the IG boards pertaining to any scheduled RPT's.

Crap... make that two minutes.

Happens to me all the freaking time. It's why I had to move my computer out of my room. Now I don't go on until I've showered and dressed.

I tried that. Moved mine downstairs with all my roommates computers, in an attempt to be social as well. I just tromp down the stairs first thing in the morning. Might stop in for morning stuff.

When you die in another video game and don't understand why no mantis head magickally dominates the screen.

I got so mad at something my character did that I haven't played in three days. What an asshole.

Hehe, I have gotten pissed off at my PCs for things they did for IC reasons before.
It's a pretty odd feeling.

[a strange shadow]

^ Yeah.

Similar to the face-palming "Dear Ginka, WHY does s/he insist on doing that?" moments.

[Majikal]

You find yourself looking forward to surgery because not only is it paid time off, but you get to hang out at home and play arm all day.
