You know you bake in EQ too much when...

Today the kids asked me what I wanted them to do with an old bike tire in the garage. I replied, "It's just vendor trash - destroy it." Later that day, I went to holler at my youngest son who has a 57th season warrior. Instead of callng him by name, I called him by his toon's name.

Teenagers are notorious for selective hearing. I'd asked my son to scoop his cat's litter box a couple times and both requests were met with the usual head nodding and vague mumbles of "Ok, later".

I got up from my chair and headed to my sons room to give him a final and not so nice reminder, he happened to be rounding the corner coming out of his room and we collided in the hall way.

I pointed at the litter box and said, "Would you please loot that thing!?!".

haha We both cracked up. And he did indeed loot it.

My daughter was home from college a few weekends ago and I decided to trot out my new skill at making sushi. (One of her favorite food groups) When she saw the table, she raised her hand for a high5, said "WOOT" and asked me what my skill level was. My husband looked at both of us like we were crazy.

OMG

I can't believe I found this thread today lol. It just so happens that I had the wildest EQism in RL this morning. My boyfriend and I are diehard EQ addicts so send me a /tell, s-t-f-u noob, I pwn u, you have gotten better at..... and especially afk, bio get bounced around quite often.

But this morning took the cake lol. Late last night we decided to take a run through Tipt that lasted longer then we thought it would. We wound up not going to bed until almost 3am. Our alarm clock makes an obnoxious beeping noise. When it finally woke me up after about 15 minutes of beeping away, I was in the middle of a dream that we were killing Vindi :P. What's even worse... when I woke my boyfriend up, he sat up and asked me "Did the Shammy die?" to which I replied "No hon, just your pet" (he's a beastie). "Ok then.. I need Wunshi"

Needless to say we had a good laugh about that after we woke up a little more

I used to work at a college.
Well there were these two kids, annoying the hell out of me while I was setting up a row of computers in a hallway.
One of them walked past me, making some remark, and I accidentally on purpose stuck my foot out.
He tripped.
He went flying, smacked slap bang down to the floor.
I sat there, concentrating on the screen and said "Ding!"

The funny thing is...
My street-cred went up by multiples of 10.
The kid got up, stared at me and went "You play EQ???"
I said yeah, I do.
He asked me which server.
I told him.
He went "Ahahahahah my warrior would so pwn you!" (He said PWN!)
I looked at him and asked which server he's on, and what's his warrior's name. He told me. (Fool)
I grinned.
He wanted to know why I suddenly had a smug grin on my face.
"If I told you, I'd have to kill you."
"Oh yeah sure, tell me!"
"I'm your *worst* nightmare, both out of game, and IN game."
He said 'Oh sure' and walked off.

A week passed.

Then I logged in, found him in PoK, and zipped over to him.
He stares at a dark elf with a GREEN name... who just greeted him by his real life name...
When he asked how I know his name, I just said "See... I told you I'm your worst nightmare in and out of game..." and walked away.

I was the college network manager... and a SWAT guide...
Talk about "You shall not evade me."

/evil

Did I mention he *never* gave me any trouble after this, ever again? :P

I have played EQ since beta days, and i have done some doozies in RL thinking i was in EQ !

1. Mom calls me up while i am driving on back country roads and cell phone goes dead in the middle of conversation, She calls back a few minutes later and Says " what happened " I replied " sorry mom i went Linkdead while zoning to another tower" i got silence for 3 minutes after that.


2. My sons teacher calls from school cause he is acting up again " I tell her to Root and Mez him and if he trys to get away Stun him, I would be there in a sec I was gating now. It rolled out of my mouth before i realized what i had said. To say the least i spent an hour just explaining that one to the teacher.


3. Dad falls off Scooter while acting a fool , Complete Heal INC 10 secs Dad, BAH REZ inc, sorry my heal didn't hit ya in time.

4. I constantly say Aye, AFK, LOL, You have gotten better at spanking kids
( 200 ), You will not Evade me you little monster, etc etc

5. Told my boss one day that i would like nothing more then to DOT his ass. He looked at me like i was off my rocker.

Those are just a few of the things i have done in RL thinking i was in the wonderful lands of norrath.
