Playing WoW in alterac Valley, we're going for the win and i'm taking out graveyards etc. My mother walks into the room and starts talking at me. . . eventually she demands that I pause my game and pay attention to her.

Have you noticed that you just can't explain properly why you can't pause an MMO?
Yeah, I know that feeling. Hard to explain to my dad that pausing while playing Guitar Hero is like being asked to push a button while juggling without dropping the balls. He just doesn't get it.

I wasn't aware you could ever pause the internet.
I accept the vaguely implied challenge. I WILL PAUSE THE INTERNET! Maybe.

Jerks. I will usually stay near that person and protect them.

Ah parents. They were bad for interruptions.

I recently sat down for some saturday night gaming; ordered the obligatory pizza, logged into Eve, joined an epic win fleet, got into some pvp in eve; pizzaman calls at the door, and I have to rush out get the pizza and get back only too see my floating corpse.

That was a pretty painful loss. So... I watched a movie instead.

When you get the urge to use the bathroom, a very intense urge at that.
Games that have no pause are most irritating. One night I was playing Demons Souls, doing fairly well for being in a poison swamp. I needed to pause to do something on my laptop real quick so I went to what I thought was a safe spot. Not long after I set the controller down, an enemy came from nowhere and owned my ass while I was fumbling for the controller.

The cutscenes in Metal Gear Solid 4 were annoying interruptions to the actual game I was trying to enjoy... or was it the game was the annoying interruption to the cutscenes I was trying to enjoy. I can never quite tell with that series.

I was one kill away from the nuke and was shooting the 25 guy when my brother appeared from nowhere beside me and asked me if I liked oranges.
Well... DO YOU?!!?!!

OT: Playing "The Last Remnant" and I forgot to put Autosave on. The game crashed after an hour and a half in one location. I lost all of it.

Anytime I get bothered during L4D, I don't like letting the bot play for me, it always seems like when I come back the dumbass lost the health pack, pills or adrenaline, and is down to melee or pistols cause he wasted all the ammo for the primary.

People seem to think the best way to get my attention while I'm gaming is to stand in front of the TV.

Yeah, this happens alot.

My parents must have an Ending Sensor, 'cause they'll always interrupt me at the very end of every game I ever play. One marvelous example of this is when my dad started fucking dancing in front of the screen at the end of Portal.

I was playing assassins creed on my computer finally assassinated the target and got out of the guards line of site, was about to dive into a hay pile and my computer decided to take a shit. I like the old monitors because you could bitchslap them and not worry about them breaking.

When shit's getting tense, everyone thinks that's the perfect time to bother me.

Probably the phone ringing while I'm playing online, forcing me to quit the game so I don't get manhandled while I'm gone.
