2422 : You have an imaginary friend called Garrett but no-one , not even you can see him. The only way you can tell that hes there is if a shadow laughs at you mockingly...

2423 : You're house is haunted . But, whenever you see shadowy things out of the corner of your eye or hear whispers, you just mutter to yourself " Damn Keepers!...."

Your (rather pale looking) niece asks you for a glass of milk and you tell her to BURN HER OWN DAMN NIGHTGOWN/DIARY YOU NEEDY BITCH!

My worst one with regards to videogames is Splinter Cell. Whenever I see a security camera nowadays, I feel like shooting the bugger out.

Werewolfintheshadows on 16/6/2006 at 17:48

I can't imagine anyone wanting to keep them around lol, i cant stand them, I didn't love fire arrows until I discovered their anti camera purpose, shame they make so much noise! The most annoying thing ever is destroying a camera, and realising the switch was in the next room, so you alerted the guards and wasted a damn good arrow for nothing lol. Apart from the fact cameras kinda ruin the whole element of thief, im glad they were absent in TDS. TTMA just introduced some crazy crap we could have done without IMO. Just played through it again today, I think my fave must be ambush, it at least gives you the chance to explore a city :-)

#2455 You're NOT surprised by the fact that there are 2453 clues already

#2456 Every time you see a cobblestone wall, you try to judge how difficult it would be to climb

#2457 You've been arrested for vandalism because you
a) Started hacking at the plants in the local park
b) Went on a rampage at the local sculpture museum and started smashing statues with your baseball bat....

#2458 You delibaretly replay the most disturbing/exciting cutscenes before going to sleep so you get thief dreams...

#2460 You actually counted how many times glowing mushroom tea has been mentioned during the previous 2453 posts

#2461 When the electricity shuts down during a storm, you gasp that the dark age has come...

#2462 ...and hastily do a city tour through the rain, starting with the museum and ending with the local fountain...
#2463...but just before reaching the fountain, you realise you LIKE the dark age and start robbing people

#2464 You're SO into stereotypes that you're shocked to find your girlfriend Vicky doesn't like the plant you gave her as a gift

#2465 After catching a thief breaking into your house at night, you're so dissappointed it isn't Garrett come to date you that you kill him...

#2466 ...but not before you tie him up, drag him to the cellar and spend three hours lecturing him about all the mistakes he made as a thief!

#2467 You add phosphor to your mushroom tea...
