You know you're playing too much Baldur's Gate when...

Night_Watch

Has this been done yet?

616. When you wait for every single one of your friends to get together before leaving a restaurant because you know you have to 'gather your party before adventuring forth' (happened to me about an hour ago)

Sjerrie

617. When in the process of moving into a new apartment, your gaming equipment is either the first or last thing that's installed. Moving is going slow.

True story.

JuliusBorisov

618. You're at work/school/college/university and yet thinking about Baldur's Gate, obviously.

Montresor_SP

619: Instead of telling your enemies to jump in a lake, you tell them to go have a staring contest with a basilisk or to kiss a comely lass.

620: You join the police force, only to get fired for prancing around the streets yelling, "I AM the law!"

Moomintroll

621: Enjoying the great outdoors leaves you longing to return home and roll a ranger or druid (happened to me plenty of times)

Elrandir

622: When you create BG characters in other games. (I'm currently enjoying cleaving through Skyrim with Sarevok)

meagloth

623. When you're a surgeon and you say "the anesthesiologist is out today. The pain will only be passing; you should survive the process."

Abi_Dalzim

624. When you no longer bother to hunt down Ihtafeer because you realized a long time ago that killing the Dao Djinn is much easier.

elminster

626. That you just realized (thanks to @Bengoshi ) that you have hit the 15,000 points mark on a forum largely dedicated to Baldur's Gate.

JuliusBorisov

627. You post your own news, something important regarding your life, on the activity page of this forum less than an hour later (than it has happened).

JuliusBorisov

628. You play BG1 even on the day of the IWDEE release.

Credit must be given to @Blackraven‌ (http://forum.baldursgate.com/discussion/comment/567423/#Comment_567423)

LJing

629. you describe a doctors job and your mind can only think of "heal patient"

Metalloman

630. When you still take you time to choose for a dialog option, even if unless you're forcing yourself to roleplay your character, you'll always choose the same one.

LJing

631. when you enjoy a bg2 main theme ring tone and people say it is "star wars"

JuliusBorisov

632. You meet Lizard men during playing IWD and the first thing you think about is "that room in the Planar Sphere" and not vice versa.

dunbar

633. When you start thinking of the game mechanics as a sadistic but slow-witted DM, chuckling evilly while frenetically rolling dice behind his propped-up manual.

dreamrider

634. When you find yourself explaining what you did in Faerun today...to your 86yr old mother-in-law.

Sjerrie

635. When you use Forgotten Realms terminology to explain Lord of the Rings. To anyone.

That's backward, you know.

Oudyn

636. When you wonder the reason why Dorn did not become chaotic evil in BG2. While you're having a conversation. With a girl.

dreamrider

Depends entirely on the girl. In the right circumstances, this could get you invited to spend the night.

Of course, you might spend it in the Infinity engine instead of in bed.

Tresset

637. You get extremely confused when you see a dead bird, because you know it is impossible to kill birds.

Vasculio

Seeing these two homeless guys on the side of the road of Paws, made me think of my first encounter with Montaron and Xzar... even though these characters are nothing alike.
