lol That's cool.


While I don't have a picture of it due to a laptop being stolen a while back, I had something happen once {right after ML Launch} that was funny/sick at the same time.

**note people with queasy stomachs or who find bodily functions disghusting should stop reading now, you have been warned :) **
I was on a looooong stretch of UO'ing, like a 18 hour non stop grind. A pain had been hitting to run to the bathroom for about two hours but we were chaining quite a few Fel Mel runs. Finally done I went to the bathroom and did what we all do on occasion. When I finished my business and stood to flush I happened to look and there in the bowl, floating on top *my right hand to God* was a PERFECT UO Logo. :lol:

This is where y'all are glad my laptop got stolen or I would post the pic :D

Oi!

No I remember that post about knowing you play too much UO.

I still do from time to time look at a nice open field and think.... "Hum.. yep castle might fit there."

Or sometimes can't get to sleep because I can't remember if I "locked that down".... or hopped back on my beetle.... before I logged out. And yes... I do get up and check to make sure.

Sure signs of addiction right there MalagAste. Either that or a touch of OCD or should that be UOCD?

I once saw pictures of RL house deco of a former UO player. She had trunks (as in chests) lined up along the staircase in descending order: 3, 2 and 1. I commented "it shows you played UO" and she said something about placing them in the same way as in her UO house...
Personally, I'm still happy everytime I get a pair of black sandals.

Not a pic, but the best RL story I heard was of a couple that played UO and their small child was crawling around the house. One asked the other, "Can you gate the kitchen?", to which the other replied, "Vas Rel Por" =)

I can't work out what that is?? Although perhaps after yesterday I shouldn't ask I'm likely to end up in fits of laughter again

Aha now that you pointed it out I can see it really obviously. Is it terrible that now that I've returned to UO its back to being the thing I always think about.

I'm at work - I want to be playing UO.

I log off and go to bed - I think about various things to do tomorrow

I think my addiction may have returned

After a long period of shearing UO sheep, I was driving and saw a small furry animal along the road and my brain flashed to shearing it immediately...I swear my hand twitched the motion....

Heard a wisp walking through a parking lot once and actually turned to look for it....

and told my daughter "all stay" once in a store. I didn't think we would ever stop laughing at that one.

:lol: I'm so glad my addiction to UO has never reached such proportions. I don't think I could stay sane if I told family or friends to all stay or heard wisps walking around me. (though wisps float :p )

Kayne, what is even funnier is that she plays UO too and DID "all stay". That is until we began rolling on the floor laughing. :D

Back in '98 when I first started my guild.. I recruited a guy named Garion. We quickly became good friends in-game and IRL.

My two youngest boys were playing in the back yard one day and I overheard them playing.
I looked out the window and they had sticks and garbage can lids and were saying "O.K. You be Garion and I'll be Ludes.. we're gonna go kill earth elementals."

I just had to laugh.

They both play UO now.

This thread scares me Ha... ( make me realize that I play to much :~} )

I often see a lot of the plants from UO not sure why. When I'm driving around or at the parks the plants look like and remind me of the plants in UO (strange I know)....

I was driving one day thriugh an older section of my town and saw a house in the the process of being torn down after a severe storm, I thought, OOOHH an IDOC, and just about slammed on my brakes.

Damn I don't have any runes on me to mark it :)

And yes, I've done the "i wonder what would fit here thing too.."

Belgium car license plates have 3 numbers and 3 letters. Sometimes the 3 letters of them are the same as some guild abbreviations i know on Drachenfels. That always make me laugh.
