Great Lakes Union Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) When you use some of your limited vacation time for work to do CN stuff. When you realize some days you spend just as much time doing your CN job and your RL job. When you are thinking about real life diplomatic situations, and you think to yourself that you could do a better job than is being done because your a MoFA. When your friends know that you're not really going to bed early, you're ditching them because something is going on in CN.

Il Terra Di Agea Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 When you are in a class studying religion, and accidentally say "Admin" instead of god.

BamaBuc Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 (edited) Whenever I email or something, I always have to take care not to sign it with "-Bama". I think I've done it a few times, actually. Once in history class, my teacher said something along the lines of "Britain ascended to world power status through an unjust system of colonial oppression", and I thought to myself... BRITAIN ASCENDS BY THE UNJUST PATH!!! (old UJW-era meme) -Bama EDIT: Oh, and at church once, I almost said "Continuum" instead of "Communion".

Yawoo Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 When you create elaborate back stories for some of your close CN friends in the hope of persuading your RL friends you're not a nerd and actually know the people you've been skyping with for the past 3 hours. I knew I heard voices in the background last time we talked! 1. When you hear someone say "woo" in real life and you yell out "Woo for Yawoo!" and everyone turns to look at you. 2. When you try to recruit half of your Residence Hall (dorm) wing into playing CN and are sad at only being able to convert 6/30 3. When you sign your name as "Yawoo" on a Medieval History Midterm... and then realize it right before you hand it to your Professor. 4. When you start using "NO U" as a legitimate comeback to an insult in RL 5. When you actually quote prices on custom flags in order to see if you could afford buying one with your alliance's image on it. 6. When you can carry on conversations with RL people and use CN as legitimate references. 7. When you've had more than one dream about CN. 7a. When you've woken yourself up saying "I'LL ZI YOU FIRST!" and then realize you aren't actually at war with anyone, and haven't been for months... 8. When RL friends have referred to you as your CN name in the past, and you've replied in character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uralica Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 4. When you start using "NO U" as a legitimate comeback to an insult in RL I heard "NO U" used long before CN. A good decade, as a matter of fact. However, CN brought it back into my vocabulary after an at least 8-year hiatus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
