You know you've been playing Skyrim too long when... Options

[Lady Saga]

...you go to the doctor, and he prescribes a treatment for low-light deficiency syndrome!

you get it when somebody makes an "arrow in the knee" joke.

you accidentally call your boss a "Jarl".

you look towards your feet and see three bars floating in the air. One's red, one's blue, and one's green.

you look up and suddenly know which direction you're going, what sort of buildings are nearby, and if any enemies are about.

you put Oblivion in for the first time in awhile, see that you have a lot of ingredients, and wonder where the nearest mixing station is. Even though your character has a mortar & pestle!

You look at far off mountains to see if there's a Dragon flying around them...

You get close to mountains and you go "Yeeeeah...Few jumps and I'll be up there no problem..."

When one of your kids (the girl), upon hearing the wife say of shop goods, "This is just rubbish." turn around and say. "Mummy, you may call them rubbish, but me, I call them treasures."

You pick up the post in the morning and declare happily - "I have letters to read."

There's one about Brynjolf's elixir which I won't mention... ...

... you make a thread about how addicted you are at playing Skyrim.






KWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I likey what I did there! Hagh!

[Lady Saga]

Haa ha yea, that's true, UA. I'm a TES addict, and happily so

When one of your kids (the girl), upon hearing the wife say of shop goods, "This is just rubbish." turn around and say. "Mummy, you may call them rubbish, but me, I call them treasures."

This one is priceless.

You know you've been playing too much Skyrim when you start to think the horse you've been riding might just off and attack somebody, unprovoked.

...you start to wear different jewelry because you think you're going to get better prices.

....you start looking forward to some overcast, rainy weather (guilty).

You know you've been playing TES V: Skyrim too long when..

..you walk into work in the morning and say "Drem Yol Lok everyone."

..you try to chill a drink by saying "Fo" in a drawn-out way.

..somebody makes a joke about finding a grey hair and you immediately wonder whether Ivarstead has an early-bird special.

..you let the TV remain broken lest the repairman accidentally sink half your town trying to fix it (and somebody immediately retorts "That wasn't their fault!").

..a debate involving religion and politics immediately makes you look around for elves, or known associates of Thalmor elves.

..you're constantly looking up for fear of attack/death-from-above.

..you're asked to sweep and the first thing you try is "Fus!", then "Fus Ro!", and finally "Fus Ro Dah!"

When you sit down to dinner you find yourself saying: "Drink for the thirsty, food for the hungry."

When you see a cop you expect him to say: "Go fiddling with any locks around here, and we'll have a real problem."

You stub your toe on a door, and think you will heal it by eating an apple.

You go to the library hoping to find some spell tomes there, or at least skill books.

haha I am GUILTY as charged of that one!

[Lady Saga]

You know you've been playing Skyrim too long when you walk into a bar and wonder if the bartender has a "clean mug around here someplace"

.....you go outside during the day and wonder what that strange orange ball is up in the sky.

.....you find yourself wanting to pick every flower, mushroom, and grass pod you see.

... you eat raw flowers, hoping they'll have a beneficial effect.

...your boss gives you a task you're unfamilar with, and you try to cast a Clairvoyance to see where to begin.

[Darkness Eternal]

When you approach random girls in the streets to tell her that you have an amulet of Mara.

[Lady Saga]

When you approach random girls in the streets to tell her that you have an amulet of Mara.

Yea, can you imagine? Ooh, I have an Amulet of Mara, now I'm irresistible!

[Lord Revan]

When you figure this guy is really a justicier infiltrating a high school for monsters.

Hah, my healer wears the Amulet of Mara all the time. Leads to some awkward moments.

[Taaron]

You know you've been playing Skyrim for too long if you wake up and are expecting someone to tell you that you didnt gain any bonuses because of your beast blood. unfortunetly, i am guilty.

[King Of Beasts]

You know you've been playing too much skyrim when.....

A deer walks in your front lawn and your immediate response is to reach for your bow and arrow

You shout " Yol Toor Shul" at the fireplace when you're trying to turn it on

When you search for levers and pull-chains around your house, hoping to find a secret passage in one of your walls

When you try to cast a frost or fire rune to keep out intruders

When you drop what you're holding on the floor in hopes that it will land on the table

When you believe you're destiny is to save the world from dragons

When you see a group of old men, you instantly assume they're the gray beards

When you dual-wield two kitchen knives and attack the rat you're trying to get rid of with them

When you call rats skeevers

When you insist people fight for the glory of Talos

When you walk around in the middle of winter in shorts and short sleeve shorts without a jacket

When you're comvinced you have a 50% resistance to frost

When you look up into the driving rain and shout "Lok-Va-Koor!!"...And actually be gutted it didn't work...

(Clear skies shout btw...Works for the snow and rain in game...Just so you know... )

[Colonel Mustard]

When you want to go somewhere and look for the waypoint to appear on your compass.

When you expect to learn a Dragon Shout from a grafitti-covered wall.

When you reach for a stamina potion when you feel tired.

[Lady Saga]

When you drop what you're holding on the floor in hopes that it will land on the table

Ha ha I'm guilty!

Guilty. I really think I do have at least a 10% frost resistance; I happen to be one of "those" people who loves cold weather. Wash my hands in cold water, walk around barefoot in snow (when it actually snows in Maryland).

At least it snows in Maryland! It just won't snow in Connecticut! The skies are always gray. It rains, but never snows. I'm definitely guilty of being convinced that u have a 50% first resistance.

[Lady Saga]

That's weird. You're much farther north, I would think you'd get lots of snow, or at least more than we do. Are you near the coast?

My brother went to school in Boston, they'd get slammed every winter. Then again, this was back in the late 80s/early 90s
