    "I think I play too much WoW" Moments

    I was stopped at a red, looked at my side view mirror, and saw something bright yellow in the grass. I immediately thought, "Why is there a quest giver here?" Then I did a double take and realized it was a bright, yellow fire hydrant....

    After that, I immediately thought, "I think I play too much WoW."

    Any one else have these weirdly funny WoW IRL moments?

    Share away.

    Sometimes I look at the right-top corner to check the minimap and then I realize I'm IRL. /sadpanda

    Way back when, when I did play too much WoW, my main was called Frosty. I got to the point I was calling myself Frosty and would have responded to that quicker than my real name. (There are a few people out there who still call me Frosty years later )

    I tried to double jump and glide over a car.

    Hospital food tastes terrible by the way.

    Probably more to gaming in general than specific to WoW (except for the fact that WoW is about all my family plays).. 1) when talking about what's for dinner the conversation includes who is stopping at the store for "mats". 2) When I click on a photo someone sends me in an attempt to pan the camera (and if I'm being honest, feeling more pissed than chagrined when it doesn't work).

    When talking to my husband about dinner and then I say, "Wait, let me see if I have the mats for that."

    I played way to much in wrath. I once woke up during the middle of the night. Woke my girlfriend and yelled at her that i didnt have enough mana for the both of us.

    Thats when i stopped raiding in Wrath.

    one of my buddies came back in Teamspeak from being AFK and we asked him why he let us wait so long.

    his answer was: "my wife sent me in the garden to get her 5 apples, but as a quest reward I'll be able to pick up an apple pie in an hour. harharhar"

    Nothing lasts forever, as they say.
    But at least I can casually play Classic and remember when MMORPGs were good.

    But prof. putri's quotes are just plain ripped-off from professor Farnsworth in Futurama. So whenever you quote that I bet most people think of that show rather than a throwaway raid boss in WoW :P

    I've played about 5 hours of WoW cumulatively in the last month.

    ...I also have 5 toons which are 743+ and 13/13M.
