' Heck I know it's a little late to be adding to this - but I _had_ to get this off my chest!
' 2449) Having cased your own home for weeks you spend a fortune on upgrading the security - knowing only too well every weakness which could otherwise be exploited (by you if no-one else!)!
' 2450) You buy an AIBO hoping it might make a good stand-in for the Children of Karras in securing your yard.
' Apologies if I've repeated any previous posts - I've only managed to read up to point #450 so far. *G*

2451) When walking in public you look for shadows that would signify significant hiding places
2452) You successfully carry out a real life 'Case the joint' mission
2453) You cannot, for the life of you, find a blackjack to use so you discover by trial and error that a rolling pin makes a poor substitute

2455) You have ever developed and used a rope/vine arrow that supports your weight.
2456) You cannot understand why people choose to have jobs, raise families, etc. What could be more better than playing Thief?!
2457) You insist to your friends (assuming you have any) that your nickname be 'Taffer'
2458) If someone asks you for your occupation, you hesistate, because you cannot think of your real job, only to blurt out 'Taffer!'
2459) You take up an interest in chemistry to try to develop slow motion and invisibility potions
2460) You know all the Thief OM's inside and out, right down to wall and tile colors in individual rooms, but you can't cook a darn cup of ramen noodles
2461) You mod Thief so instead of knocking out Ramirez you take out someone you are pissed at, like your boss or one of your teachers.
2462) You tell stories of the Woodsie Lord when you put your children to bed. They cannot sleep.

seems we're having counting problems again!
2474) You go to Europe for two and a half months and everytime you look at a famous building you're like "just give me one rope arrow"...
2475) Likewise, when you go to the world's most incredibly beautiful churches and down into their crypts all you can think about is thieving from the undead...
2476) All these constant reminders cause you to miss the game so much that all you can think about is how the first thing you will do when you get home is play...
2477) Sure enough I got back last night and you can figure out the rest I'm sure.
