Default Heres something we all have in common at subsim

Tell me the truth now........

You've beem sitting there downloading a file or waiting
for Youtube to load.

when you have done it.

we've all done it in those moments.

we have all reached over and tried to warp the space time
continuum by trying to boot up the T/C on everything.

I admit I've done it. I clicked the lower right corner of the screen (as in DW) expecting the download to speed up only to be suprised with my clock and calender settings.

Sorry, but what do you mean by "boot up the T/C"?

Whenever I play 688i Hunterkiller, I always catch myself looking on the lower left corner of the screen for the pop up stations menu. There are also several games when I get surprised by moving my mouse over to the left side of the screen and not having the SHIII menu pop out.

The closest I've come to that was seeing a supertanker on the news the other day and thinking "mmmmmmmm......juicy".

I wanted to go to the docks to "view" some shipping but HQ denied my request, citing it was too dangerous!

I think this was brought up in another thread but I will repeat it here:

How many of us, when seeing a ship, start mentally calculating AoB?

Don't see many ships here in the mountains.

I have, however, done it countless times with trucks on the highway.
