Ever play a game too much and it carries over into real life?

I played a ton of Animal Crossing, and while driving along a road I noticed a star shaped patch of dirt in some grass. My immediate reaction was "I have to dig that up! There might be a fossil under there!"

I've also been through well over 300 hours of Oblivion, so sometimes when I'm watching a movie and a person is running I'll be waiting for their athletic skill to improve.

Assassin's Creed - I get the whole "blend in with the crowd" and "move through the crowd" thing. The former includes just mimicking someone's movement/speed, keeping my eyes/face lower, the latter is just moving people by placing my hand on/near their shoulder/arm and nudging them to the side when I'm in a crowd... thankfully both are subtle and a lot of people do it sometimes so it doesn't make me stand out ^^

I talk to my WoW playing friends with words like: gank, ninja, OS and other stuff.
I do that "move through the crowd" thing in Assassins Creed.
I once briefly thought about using my hearthstone to get home on night.

After playing a lot of MW2 I saw a plane and attempted to shoot it down by moving my hands and closing one eye before realizing what was happening. It was embarrassing to say the least.

Also, my hand goes for the knife button sometimes

I was dreaming of defusing bombs and firing shotguns at people with MP5s, I had played a bit much Counter-Strike: Source.
