... when you confuse something happening in real life with something that normally only happens when you play Mechwarrior Online!

[mailin]

Once my wife sent me an e-mail and my only response was "rgr".

Her next e-mail asked me what that means.

Sorry, this is all I got from your Post.

I so love huskies! Ours is named Onyx, and she is just a sweet lil lady. ...who will tear up a cat like that chew toy! Her only fault.

When you are in your car and wonder why you can't shoot SRMs at the really slow guy ahead of you.

I knew I was a MechWarrior when My Daughter became part of the Lore!

[MeiSooHaityu]

You know you're a MechWarrior when...

You watch the Battletech Cartoon on YouTube in all its 240 resolution glory...and like it! .

You look at a Semi truck as a Drop Ship.
(I blame Knight Rider for that too).

The real-life to vidya-game confusion is a real struggle. 'There is no way I will be able to get this paperwork done before Friday, I should drop down to a UAC5 and put more ammo in my build. Wait what was I thinking about?'

After sex your girlfriend calls you a noob and curses you for not following her plan.

"I said push! damnit!"

"And don't try any of that solo 'going for the rear' action either, that will get you smacked down real quick!! This is a team game damnit, we need to do this together, I'm getting tired of having to carry the whole team on my own!"

You know your a mechwarrior when...

you take a bus ride, and in your mind, see mechs walking beside the bus, standing next or on buildings, and try to scale an Atlas to a skyscraper..

Then procede to scale a Timberwolf to a really big tree..

I pilot in the nude because I find I have to shower less often.

...you read "The Raven" by E. A. Poe, and realize, the poem doesnt mention broken leg hitboxes.


edit:

...you wonder if Arnold in "Commando" used a CSRM4 or the IS one.

When you wish you had a Daishi to take on the highway to and from work.

Yeah! Cut me off now ass holes! Melee declared.

Well I like sneak up behind my wife and whisper....
"Warning incoming missile!"
Now after watching me play for years now, she's learned to tell me.
"Let me turn off my ecm or I'll never hit it."
I don't like it though when she refers to as the small laser to her friends.

Your a Mechwarrior when your friend is complaining about needing to fix the AC in his car and think to your self, "if you don't like it when your AC stops working then why did you mount Ultras?"

Your a Mechwarrior when you do a U-turn and flip off and shout curse words at very specific office building because you realized it belonged to HG.

[CygnusX7]

I see air/arty strikes often in RL.

[Almond Brown]

You know you're a MechWarrior when you hear "I think..." and you immediately respond.

"Don't think MechWarrior. Find out!"

or

You wife walks past as you sit down to the PC and she asks, "You Mech'n tonight?"
And you respond. "Yup, going Mech'n hard!" with a big **** eating grin on your face.

You keep expecting to see PPC's fired from the direction of the radio tower on the side of the hill, in that perfect sniping location.


You twist madly back and forth before crossing the street in traffic, then run serpentine across the road and head for the nearest cover. (Too much locusting for me maybe?)
