When I drive to work I approach an overpass. Sometimes there's a train passing and I estimate which box car I will intercept when I pass under it!

Is it possible to play too much SH3?

Ok, when you realize that you haven't earned a single study point at the university since you bought SH3

when you look through law books just to find mounitng an 88 on your porch is illegal....
when you start judging AOB on nearby cars as you drive...
when you jump at every little thing (phone ringing)....
when you hum tipperary on a regular basis...
when TVs are foreign objects....
when you prefer to be called herrr kaleun....even by your best friends...IN HIGH SCHOOL!

When stop at a red light and say all stop!
You text to your firends enigma codes.
When see a plane pass by and say man the flak guns.
when you play all day and night and take liitle breaks as possible.

When you see a truck on a road some distance ahead, which crosses the road you're on and the first thing that pops into your head is that you're lucky that you have an almost perfect 90 degree AoB...

Actually happened two days ago.

My Commercial Director, at work, used to command carriers for the US Navy... His ringtone is a sonar ping. This is not good for my nerves...
