Talking Top 10 ways to tell if Guild Wars has taken over your life!

I've seen 2 others that were created before GW was released. so I thought I'd give a go at creating another now that the game is released!

1 : You decide to sell that pen your last boss "dropped" on Ebay with the following item description :

"WTS GOLD MAX Inkage Twin Tipped Fountain Pen of Long Windedness - Cursive +15%(Ink>50%) Increases length of sentances"

2 : Your not worried about selling your ownly good pen. because you already have found several good farming areas in your office.

3 : Your boss calls you and 7 workmates into an emergency meeting.
After Firing 3 of your collegues he turns to you. You stand up and shout "I will avenge you!" and proceed to jump accross the table and tackle you boss in order to give your remaining collegues time to Resurect your downed workmates.

4 : You walk into the local un-employment office with a sign that says :
"LFG WORK (I Will not quit!)" and proceed to hold it above your head every few seconds

5 : when that doesnt work, you go to another local un-employment office with 3 extra signs that say :

"LFG WORK (I Will not quit!)!!!!!"
"LFG WORK (I Will not quit!)!!!1!!!11!!!!"
"LFG WORK (I Will not quit!)!!!!!!!!!!1111!!!!11!!one"

and procedd to flash them one after another in quick succession.

6 : You take your beloved family pet dog down to the local pet shop to return it. telling the guy there that your heading to the mountains to tame a Bear that your going to call "cuddles"

7 : Whilst driving in your new car, you pull out a pen and start drawing wildly on the GPS screen and clicking on all the oncoming cars.

8 : You head down to the local supermarket and buy several bottles of Black food dye and proceed to apply it to each item of clothing so that people will think you have alot of money.

9 : You sit down and right out 150 of the different skills you possess, then choose 8 and head off to work.

10 : when you get there you realise that the skills you braught with you are useless for the work you must attack today. so you head home to choose another set of 8 skills.


I can think of more, but these are funny (well I think they are) so enjoy!

Lol nice.

BTW in reference to #2 I I found a great farming run.
Start off looking behind the oniter swoop down to second drawer on your right, DO NOT OPEN THE TOP. Now you will need a good monk for this part. After that you can proceed to the other side(Elite skill Boring Lecture)

When people give you free stuff, you turn it down because they already figured out what it does.

You go around killing tall people and hoping they keep useful items in their shoes.

You can only go out in public 3 days a month. (from beta)

You go out to a bar and pay 200 gold for some Miller

You get mauled by a bear and wonder why your animal charms didn't work

You walk around town waiting for statues to burst into flames and cursing at Korea and Europe when they don't

You never go indoors except for caves, occasionally

You fear little girls

Im glad to see you and others like them!

lets see if I can come up with some more...

When you leave home to go to work, you believe that should something go wrong. returning home will let you start again.

Whenever you go dancing at a club. you take of all the clothes, expecting that atleast one girl will do the same, should you dance in your undies for long enough.

You think having 2 bags, and one bum-bag will allow you to carry a few hundred kilograms of stuff (Im australian sorry)

You buy food dye from the supermarket then stand out side and try and sell it for 5 times as much. thinking some noob will come along and buy it eventually.

after killing the biggest fly youve seen, you stand over it expecting to capture an elite skill.

you tell your boss hes not really a boss because he doesnt have a colored aura

there not as funny. but oh well

Australia > *


you walk out the front of your house and shoot the nearest living thing, you go over to him/her and check for loot, no loot, you swear, turn around, go back inside, then re open the door expecting him/her to be alive again.

your driving and you press the cruise control button while pointing at the nearest car, and after the crash, wonder what went wrong

3 : Your boss calls you and 7 workmates into an emergency meeting.
3a: You refuse to go because none of your workmates is a monk.
3b: You want to wait a little bit while you "rearrange your skills" (luckily, everyone thinks that means that you're going to the bathroom).
3c: You ask "Are we doing the bonus too?"

You're one of 3 collegues fired (for playing at work, no doubt!)
3c: After the meeting you shout at your colleagues "WTF DINT YOU REZ ME 4???!!! N00BS!!!!1". (Luckily noone understands a word.)
3d: You say "Let's do the mission again! I brought the wrong skills, I know how to take him now!"

3e. In a freak "I Will Survive!" accident, you kill your boss, you wonder why he didn't give you a morale boost, or XP.

12. You forget the rules of reality and don't eat for a day or two, then wonder why your stomach is eating itself. [Ok thats not really funny but... eh o.o; I'm tired]

13. You run into your twin in the hallway [obviously if you have a twin], shout "Doppleganger!" or "Mirror Self!" Then attempt to obliterate them for the 50,000 XP, bonus, and Ascension.


EDIT: Oh my, I sure did butcher the word 'shout' before, fixed now though.

One day I was out driving somewhere and didn't know exactly where I was, needed to get to an exit out of the town I was in, so I actually went to press the 'M' key. True story, though, I was playing Battlefield 1942 when this happend and not GW.
