Default you know you've played too much SH3 when...

You see a serious news article, http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/13/bu...al/13ship.html
and all you can think about is the lack of escorts!

How many torpedos will each 300,000 tonner require? I'll be happy to sink just one since I'll be able to pass Kptlt. Kretschmer as the Top Ace and wipe that silly smirk off his face.

Can't wait 'til the frauleins see me with the Knights Cross with Oak leaves, Crossed swords and Diamonds.

Your girlfriend is in the shower and you think your UBoat is taking major flooding,so you rush for your toolkit and burst in on her screaming "secure that flooding,quickly chief,quickly!" while menacingly brandishing your wrench

What's the source of that scene?

On-topic: there's is something wrong here, when I looked at photos of those juicy merchants all I could think of was how many torps and where to aim

You have SH3 sickness when you see a ship at sea and you think: If only I had a submarine and a few torps I would like to give a try in RL practice

I ussually think of that when I spot a ship sunbathing in a beach, hehe

I'm sorry. I reject the premise in the title. There is no such thing as too much SH3.
