You watch Star Wars II, and during the scene in which Padme is dodging and avoiding various contraptions on the construction belt you *immediately* get flashbacks of a similar plight YOU had to pace during the finale board of T2 in a certain area.
#2078
You immediately imagine a keyboard at your fingertips while doing so.
#2079
You catch yourself briefly judging Padme's movements and judgement against your own had you been doing the maneuvers instead of her...
#2080
...and you FINALLY end up thinking to yourself, "Hey, I would *NEVER* had ended up trapped like SHE did!"
#2081
You suddenly briefly wonder why she just didn't quickly reload her game instead.
(In case you're wondering: the first of these happened to me while watching the movie, the rest is just nonsense. ;) )

2082) You ritually attempt a stunt known as "Being Sneaky" when you flip over a couch and land in a crouched position on the floor, looking around to see if you've been detected
2083) You hit your foot on a piece of furniture EVERY time you try to "Be Sneaky"
2084) Regardless, you still try to successfully "Be Sneaky"

Back to the top, you taffer!
Here's a contribution from me, a newbie here:
(2085) While getting dressed up for a fancy party, you are reminded of Calendra's Cistern. (guilty)
(2086) You can pee quietly. (guilty)
(2087) You choose your shoes based on how quiet they are to run in. (Converse All-Stars work the best.)
(2088) You actually read all the preceding posts, and not just so you wouldn't repeat anyone. (guilty)
(2089) With great depression, you realize you've spent more time reading this list in the past few days than you have playing Thief.
(2090) You start to consider Thief your "night job".
(2091) You successfully sneak up behind people, only to intentionally drag your feet at the last second to avoid having them make a hole in the ceiling. (guilty)
(2092) With great relief, you realize there are people who are actually more obsessed than you are... and go play some more.
(2093) Even after the 2000+ submissions, you are still coming up with more. (guilty)
(2094) Your room is so messy, you can barely see the carpet, but you can STILL move across it silently.
(2095) Your goal is to beat all the FMs (in English, anyway) for T:TDP. (guilty)
(2096) And you've gotten a good start. (guilty)
(2097) Your idea of a fun evening with your SO is the Thief 2 demo. (guilty)

2102: You use DromEd to insert all the posts in this thread into a book in Lord Bafford's collection.
2103: you reread all the previous posts because you're not sure if you missed one. (True story)
2104: You assemble all the scriptures, quotes from guards, and books, into one big book of "Hammers to Mechanists, a taffer's guide."
P.S. does anyone have info on the Taffernomicon?
