i cant say anything irl is effected by my gameplay other than me seeing a gas can or propane tank and thinking of l4d. or maybe the way i look at buildings or rooms and think about how effctive they would be in terms of defending against a zombie invasion but in all reality i have been doing that long before any sort of zombie game came out.

but i will admit that playing tf2 really alters how i play other games. i find myself spychecking in CSS and other multiplayer games of that nature. i mean... if i cant walk through u, my first reaction is to pump u full of lead... and that shit doesnt fly on ff css servers.

I have that problem with admin powers. I was walking home once and I could see my house in the distance and it was like 105 outside and my first thought was "shit if only I could tele there!"
At least I don't have flies in my eyes.

both of these.

i also size up rooms thinking to my self, " i wonder how a sentry would do here?" or if i see a ledge i would be like " i could totally double jump up to there"

i shoved my bro off my comp as if i had a gun on me so i can take my shot.

I also carried Target brand Painpills everywhere i went, since they look exactly like the L4D pills. I was in the van, my mother saw, she asked why. All i said was "Just in case".

I've never done or had anything like that happen to me but every time I am in the mountains I feel like I go into the past and dinosaurs are every where.

Never done any of that for gaming per say. But I do try to gauge the effectiveness of wherever I am for a zombie invasion.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion man.

I've had an instance when I was walking to school, there was a little metal box that I swear almost looked like the ammo boxes in Fall Out 3. Me,being half asleep at the time still, I walked over and waited for the "Press E to Open"...after awhile I finally realized its a lie

I went to Scotland over the summer and visited a veeeeeeery old castle, one wall taken out, stairs busted in some places. I figured out where the snipers should be, where demomen should lay a trap, and where a level 3 sentry would roll the other team.

I gotta get out more.
