Confusing second life with real life....

[IvanBenjammin]

Not entirely the same thing, but I've been modelling and texturing for so long that my first thought upon seeing a dirty brick wall isn't 'that needs a wash' but 'wow, awesome grunge!'

Just the other day I was looking at a freshly mown sportsfield. First thought: 'that texture doesn't tile very well'

And in the past when spending a lot of time modelling I'll see wireframe overlays on RL objects...

In a decade or two when every home has a 3d printer, you will be able to buy a piece of SL furniture for your RL house

I do this too after I started making textures a few years ago and found I loved making grungy type ones.

The possibilities with 3D printing are enormous. This would just be so cool to do!

You'd better tick the physical checkmark in the edit window and see how it holds together before using it in real life, where physics are not an option but standard setting.
