Oh man, dont get me started!
On my way to work, I cross a river, every time a see a boat I say out loud "ship spotted". I live near the county airport, and every time I hear a small airplane I think about diving. When I stand out on my back deck to drink my morning coffee I like to look out into the morning mist and see if I see smoke plumes. I actualy think "Port" and "starboard"........and I wasnt in the Navy. I have an old alarm clock that I cant use because it sounds like the "alarm" sound. On cold nights, while playing, I wear an extra large, hand made sweater that looks like the one a guy has on in "Das Boot". I have a red light on above my computer desk (and I USE it!) I know the draft of certain merchant ships that arent around anymore (and I've never been to an ocean). I bought a CD instruction set for German, just so I could find out if my crew was talking about me when I miss an easy shot..........and they ARE! I look for the day, when in normal conversation, someone asks if anyone knows where the minefields and sub nets are in Kiel harbor........so far it has not come up. Sever times a day a normal sound will somehow sound amazingly like a sound in SH3. I really do sound like that background cough in SH3/GWX I sing along to 60 year old songs from the Gramaphone....and get most of the words right......IN GERMAN! At intersections I try to "guesstimate" angles and speeds of the other cars. The last time I was out on the lake fishing, I would plot intercept course on other boats (but just in my head.....I never actually fired on them....but I wanted to!) It goes on and on.....and on.
