I locked myself out of my apartment a few months ago, and I literally considered, just for a second, what my lockpick skill was.

when your computer has been hitting several times with a meat tenderizer :brokencomputer:

when you consider what your SPECIAL stats are and look for a vigor tester.

when you expect firearms to automatically shoot towards your target.

when you expect rebreathers to give you an infinite supply of air

...When you're taking a dump in a fancy hotel while listening to Nat King Cole, and thinking you are in the Ultra Luxe.

...when you're copying over yet another huge chunk of raw NV video to your external hard drives and realize that you've amassed 500GB worth and if you keep this up, soon you'll need another external drive backup. You know there's no good reason to keep all of these stupid videos, wasting space, but you just can't make yourself delete them yet. :banghead:

When you open a cupboard at home, find a roll of duct tape and think: "Great! Another weapon repair kit!"

When you get a Christmas card from your sister and it says, "don't stay up too late playing New Vegas :P" (true story)
When you're afraid to take the interstate north because there might be deathclaws there
When you start collecting bottlecaps off of all your beers
When you're actively trying to figure out your real-life SPECIAL stats in the middle of class.
When you go to Vegas and are epically disappointed because you saw no Securitrons patrolling the streets
When you watch Disney documentaries (yeah yeah, total Disney nerd here), point to Walt Disney and say, "Hey! It's Mr. House!"

You shoot people who steal your pencil.
You suggest the solution to the War in Afghanistan is to deploy some Power Armor units there.
You have Big Iron on your MP3 player (Guilty. I also have Butcher Pete from FO3)
You refer to a housefly as a bloatfly.
You wonder if you're speech skill is high enough to smooth-talk your way out of a real life situation.

You plan a trip to Vegas keeping in mind the number of caps you will need to obtain.
You pronounce Caesar's salad "Kai-sarr's salad".


I've done that, and I was talking to my sister about getting pizza from Little Ceasar's(Kai-sar's)

You watch the start of the film "Air Force One" (because hubby's got it on the tube), and when there's this brief scene where they're showing some army dudes in red berets you shout out "The last thing you never see!"

....and your husband turns and gives you a "wtf?" stare.

When you go to the Fridge in Sneak Mode
When you start saying " But I ain't a fink dig"
When you grab two baseball bats and try to use repair in real life
You start calling your self Smooth skin
Cass starts appearing in your dreams and keeps repeating the phrase "That Censored Monument"
You think that old people are ghouls because of the wrinkles
Stabbing yourself with a needle will heal you because you think its a stimpack
You actually start thinking that you can use a Screwdriver and a Bobby Pin to open up real locks
You see Deathclaws making out in your dreams
You start seeing Californias flag as a two headed bear instead of a one headed bear
You want Veronicas Scribe Robes
When you try to punch somebody you expect VATS to appear so that you can uppercut him
You put on your football gear and you think your a member of Caesars Legion
When you see people wearing sunglasses you immediately think of 1st Recon
When you see a Dog you grab a baseball bat because you think its going to attack you.

When you look at a toilet and realize how thirsty you are.

When you drink from a toilet and think it's normal behavior.

When you drink from a toilet and your dog give you a look that says "Oh, sure, I get in trouble for that..."
