I've seen this in other forums, and it's been really fun. I'll start it out. You know you're addicted if you look outside, and say "I've seen better graphics. You know you're addicted if the only sun you see is when you are outside in Halo.

Heh, I had an interesting thing happen to me at the mall the other day. I was shopping and decided to hit the foodcourt.....When I looked around for a place to sit, it appeared that a large group of people were kind of clumped together in one area, I was suddenly taken by the urge to throw a plasma grenade right in the middle of em. This is true.

Ha. I got ya all beat, cuz this actually happened:

You know you're addicted if you call your mother at noon on Thanksgiving and tell her you'll be late for dinner because you're not leaving until you complete "the Maw" in Halo.

Well, I finished it (amazing) and told her that I had car trouble. hahaha

-You exit the door of your house and it takes 1 or 2 seconds to load outside
-Everytime you get into your car, people show up and hop in
-Everytime you see a cop, you tell him to make sure to press A every now and then
-Someone robs you and you scream to your friend "HIT THE RIGHT TRIGGER!!!!" and you get hit but you take cover behind a wall and wait for your sheild to recover

if they only knew!

last night at our lan party, there was a guy that's only been coming for a few weeks. he was calling my brother (jumper) by another screen name. it had been 4 weeks, and he hadn't yet put a face with the screen name...and he didn't know that we were brothers. hehehe:p

I tried to pm you, but your box is full.
You caught me, I'm scared. Scared I might destroy your ego that is.

I only got a friend invite from you once and that was in the middle of a game and then when I finished you were gone, I think you're the one that's scared conviently sending an invite while I'm in the middle of game ;) . We'll have to hook up soon. I'm leaving town for 2 weeks starting Thursday so it will have to be either tonight or tomorrow night. I like playing a scrimmage game before I play a ranked game because I just never know how the lag is going to be until I play an actual game. I've been having problems with lag so I only play late at night and if it seems to take awhile logging in I usually will bail back out because lag has ruined many a game for me.:(
