Hi,
Something that amused me when I went to Canade recently. At the airport, there was a flight to Greece..
"Helios airlines"
I thought "cool, they're going covert".
Then realised I was on holiday and reporting a scout on the PA system wouldn't help anyone
Can't get away from the game,
Had to chuckle.
Anyone else start seeing Eve wherever they go

That's an easy one to recover from, Just tell them you just had a holiday in Iceland, then when they ask what it was like tell them it was cold. No one's ever actualy been to iceland, so no one can ask you if you've been to bar X or something like that.

When you hear on the news about the FA cup and wonder what kind of competition Fountain held
When somebody mentions a blackbird your first thought is of a caldari cruiser
When you describe how your exam went as 'I got ganked'
When you try to rotate the view on your wallpaper
When you wonder if 'Stain Remover' can get rid of Apocs
When someone says Ewok, you think of the system before star wars
You do a double take when someone mentions they are a PA.

Haha, I know I've been playing EVE too long cuz I've seen waaay too many responses to this prompt. One of my main things is when "police cruiser" and "CONCORD cruiser" become the same thing in my mind, and every time I see the white Crown Victorias with the lightbars on top, I'm really just seeing that funny shaped CONCORD cruiser in my mind...
Or how about this? Earlier today I was text messaging my girlfriend and she asked when I was going to leave my house to go pick her up. I text messaged her back:
"Soon(tm)"
Promised to explain that one to her some time...

Haha I love Camden, I have a hilarious memory of going to Camden with a bunch of friends and buying some BDSM sh!t for me and my girlfriend...then we went to Leicester Square for lunch and we were hanging out on the grass and I got bored so I pulled out a pair of steel handcuffs covered in black fuzz that I'd bought and handcuffed myself to one of those fences around the grass...it was...odd...I believe they have some funny pictures from that little event...
Oh and that (about jumps on the underground, not about Camden) reminds me of a TV ad we have here about going to the Bahamas...it's got this guy who keeps JUMPING from one island to the next, every time he just runs and jumps and he flies all the way over to another island in the Bahamas and at the end it's like "Island hopping...The Bahamas!"

I was waiting for my gf in a crowded pub a few weeks ago and was going to check local to see if she'd arrived.
Needless to say, she wasn't exactly impressed when I told her. She's a n00b anyway.

Well,
(1) When you refer to your lady as "leet"
(2) When you mistakingly tell your friends who don't play that you finished your LVL 5 BS skill during dinner.
(3) When you see an accident and you automatically think "WTFPWND"
(4) When you use your lunch break to drive 20 miles to change skills.
(5) When you are about to get your a$$ handed to you in a bar fight and you get comfort knowing you have 19 million + SP.
(6) When your friend who you haven't seen for weeks calls to cancel an outing and you are relieved because you can now play the game.
(7) When you have been divorced twice because you are a "gamer" and you think it is because THEY just don't get it.

How is that comforting? More like, when I'm about to hand somebody his ass on a plate, and I'm thinking like HA! Beaten by a punk like me with less than 5mil SP! How pathetic...

When real money = Isk in your mind
I keep thinkin my pay is too small or that some expensive stuff in shops are too cheap because they aren't listed as costing 100s of million. Luckily for me, I havent fooled myself into buying anything stupid. Also I keep thinkin I can make 100s of million in real life in a couple days, which really isnt healthy.

How about when the Hurricanes hit Florida and all those Power trucks came down. I took one look at the large boom/bucket trucks and then the small ford f150 trucks behind them and thought, "Oh no, they've got a huge fleet of battleships and frigs headed our way".

let me just list what I've heard from friends.
Case A)
Student, in physics class, is doing some magnetism excersices etc, and they have a unit called Vebber (or something along that pronounciation). Guy announces result: "3 scramblers".
Case B)
Guy working in an office, co-worker phones and asks him for some papers. He replies: "I'll put em up on escrow for you".
Case C)
Guy working as a clown in childrens parties. Pulled an all-nighter in eve and then went to work at a party. He gets kids to play a game where the side-jump when he says "we jump to the left". After a while he says: "And now we warp to the right".
He immediately fell on the floor laughing his ass out, concerned parents phoned his boss and claimed that the guy was stoned.

Yeah, the unit is the Weber, (pronounced like "Vebber" cuz it's a German guy's name and all German W's essentially turn into V's) and it measures magnetic flux. One Weber is equal to 1 (Newton x meter x second) per coulomb. Yes, I spent too much of my life in physics classes. And I've never regretted it for a second :D

You know you're an EVE addict when you spend even more time on the forums than you do in EVE. So much time in fact, that it interferes with your life. Interferes so much that you feel the need to talk to your psychiatrist about it.
Or just how about...you know you play too much EVE when your psychiatrist knows it.

Even better...you know you play too much EVE when EVE is in your DREAMS.
Similar example:
Okay so I'm sleeping. Suddenly I feel myself being roused towards wakefulness...there's somebody standing over my bed trying to wake me up (that is an incredibly difficult task). My response to this? I attempted to mumble something to the effect of "Leave me alone, I still have shield AND armor left so come back later." Thankfully I couldn't actually articulate any real words...

When you dream about ship setups, like the dream i had last night about a Enyo with a cloak instead of a rocket launcher. Or you dream about your brand new ship then you think you lost it and your flying back in you pod then wake up in a cold sweat telling yourself "Its just a dream, its just a dream."

When you get stuck in traffic and start seeing license plates then saying to yourself " I have been to THAT System" out loud as the rest of your friends look at you like your nuts.
When you get mad at National Geographic for forgetting to mention the Ewar capabilities of a Scorpion then realise they were talking about the animal.
When you see a car fire on a freeway and the first thing that pops into your mind is "OMGWTFBBQPWND"
When you forget that Daakon didn't make Barbie Girl famous!
When your girlfriend starts talking about wranglers (jeans) being comfortable to wear and feeling good on her and you start to think shes cheating on you with a Dev!!!
When your in traffic and prey for an MWD!!
