When you dance at the club like you're pressing a bunch of function keys. F10 ROCKS!

Don't attempt a backflip. It only ends badly. Trust me on this one. Ever if you are named Flipper.

When you go to a house and complain that they have too many prims on their land for the parcel size. (done it)

When you see a bookself and think "Prim bank" =P (done that)

When you've blamed your bad driving on "bad scripting" (done it)

When you see a nice house and think "Great texturing job!" (done it)

When you've wanted to get someone's attention and you go "Ding ding" (done it)

When people ask you to come over and you say "Sure. TP me." (done it)

When you put a cardboard box on your head just to feel like a noob again. (done it)

When in the throws of RL passion, you call each other your SL names and it's normal (done that)

      When renting a House/Apt the deciding factor is it cable ready and which Cable Company services it.

      When you're more concerned about your avatar's appearance than your own.
      When you take better care of your avatar than you do yourself.

      ...when the "the number of these threads have I seen" statistic is a bragging right, and you realize that you're a competitor for first place.

      I'm speaking hypothetically here.

      When instead of walking to get to another room, you reach out with your hand and try to 'sit here' on couch in there. I have caught myself doing that.

      When you go to a house and complain that they have too many prims on their land for the parcel size. (done it)

      Or wonder what the tier is to cover all those prims...
      Or think, damn I coulda done that with 1/2 the prims...


      When you see a bookself and think "Prim bank" =P (done that)

      Or want to hover the mouse over them to get the titles from across the room...

      When you've blamed your bad driving on "bad scripting" (done it)

      Or think "hey dummy, go into mouselook!"

      When you see a nice house and think "Great texturing job!" (done it)

      ...see first comments...

      When you've wanted to get someone's attention and you go "Ding ding" (done it)

      Or you just want to drop a notecard on them...

      When people ask you to come over and you say "Sure. TP me." (done it)

      Or want to ask for a LM...

      When you put a cardboard box on your head just to feel like a noob again. (done it)

      NEVER been that drunk Nala, well not in a while...

      When in the throws of RL passion, you call each other your SL names and it's normal (done that)

      Or just not sure which VR/RL name to use?


      Or ... you have responses to these responses to this thread, and are reading them to another online buddy in Skype while typing these out...naaah wouldn't happen!
