You Know You're Hooked On SL When...

[Fionalein]

You know you're hooked to necromancy when you just cannot stop resurrecting threads... (Seen this many times).

[Sasy Scarborough]

When you are scrolling through a streaming service and you read Elektra as Elikatira and start thinking about hair.

[Maryanne Solo]

You come home from work to do reports etc and think.... I'll just log on to SL for 5 minutes..... 

 

[Gabriele Graves]

You dream in Prims.

When you search your room for shoes that can be only found in your inventory and have a DOH moment, then get really sad because they would have looked great with what you are wearing.

When, in RL, someone says something funny and instead of actually laughing  you say "el oh el".

You know you're hooked on SL when,

I guess when, you've seen enough of these"You know you're hooked on SL when" threads necroed over the years, that you can't think of anything new to add to one anymore..

Just being in world whenever possible and staying there way too long.

Just being on a phone, even in company, scoping the forums and even buying stuff in the Marketplace.

Regarding friends in SL as RL friends, and valuing time spent in their company. Looking forward to hanging out in world.

That's why SL isn't a game. It's too involving on a real life level. Totally and completely unexpected.............

Been there, done that. Except for the buying stuff on MP over the phone bit. You want my t-shirt? It's got a few holes in it.

when you find a GOOD rp sim. So far some sims for rp i have done (and thoroughly enjoyed/still enjoy):

1. Santa Ramona Valley, This is a good sim to roleplay in. And I am close friends with the sim owner, I rp as his niece.

2. Novus Ascending, typical D&D sim. Can be fun at times.

I knew you were referrring to this before I saw the picture! News is news. It would be interesting to see pictures of women wearing this whose breasts don’t align or fit (sagging, etc.). Because reality.

You know you are hooked on SL when you take your computer/laptop to the bathroom to get away from the screaming kids and let the entire grid hear them screaming through your mic while you hiding in the bathroom from the kids and husband.  (Seen this many times).

Where were you a few days ago when WinTrain was necroing every thread from 2011 claiming it was all relevant still today? Even the "song" threads he necroed. >.<

   Yesterday I was sitting at my desk, as I am now. Suddenly there were some suspicious sounding banging and clonking noises from outside. I got up and went to look out the window. There was a woman in a small, black BMW something or other. It was new, with no plates and only the temp permit stuck in the back window. She was in the middle of the street, but perpendicular to it, and trying to turn around. I heard engine revving, gear grinding, and tire chirps.

   She had tracked mud in the street as she maneuvered her car, picked up from, I now noticed, the green strip between the street and the sidewalk. Somehow, she had run up over the curb (bump!), onto the green strip and across part of the sidewalk in an arc, and bumped into our tree (smack!). She narrowly missed my car. I have the urge now to place a sign on the tree for the landscape boys who come through our neighborhood every week."It wasn't me!"

   This street, in front of my house, is wide enough for me to do a slow U-turn with my outback. This woman was doing seven point turn-around, in this tiny car. She was doing it very slowly and giving the impression of both not knowing how to drive that car, and being completely lost. Finally she managed to get pointed in the direction she apparently wanted, and drove off at the speed of a brisk walk.

   I thought to myself 'What is her problem? Is she really that inexperienced driving this car? Any car? Is she drunk? Does she have impaired vision?' Then, in the back of my mind and with an inner chuckle 'Maybe there's a sim crossing running down the center of the street.'

   At any rate, I now have some souvenirs from this event. Tire tracks ripped through the grass (It wasn't me!), small scrapes in the bark of the tree, and a small piece of black plastic that used to cover something underneath the front of that car. It broke off, probably when she drove up over the curb.

That looks like something a designer messed up on and ran out of time and said to her..My new masterpiece,And she bought it hook line and sinker..

It's like a dress that it's whole purpose is to show off plastic surgery..

Kim,I'm telling you,Bondage wear is in this season..

It's just bad taste embarrassing.  Unless it's in SL, but even then I wouldn't......
