Embarassing Gaming Habits

SinkingBadges

The Quiet Man
Do you have any? C'mon, I promise I won't laugh (too much), whatever they are. And just to give some confidence, I'll go first:

I swear, a lot. I swear when I win, when I lose, when I finally get a perfect run, when an enemy hits me, I swear when I hit an enemy, I swear when the pad doesn't work and when it DOES work. You get it.

And as a side note, if there is already a thread EXACTLY like this, and you happen to be a mod, please close it as I don't want to clutter the index.

I constantly talk to myself while playing, at least on a console instead of a hand-held game, it annoys people in my household.

I tend to get easily irritated when things don't go like I want them to. I also talk to myself on occasion when playing but only under my breath. I do that when I need to figure out where to go.

I usually talk to myself when playing videogames, usually Zelda, kinda guiding myself along.
Another thing I sometimes do is in racing games, where I'll turn my whole body when I'm steering. XD

I wash my hands whenever I start playing. After I've taken a break, when playing it for the first time, when playing after eating. I don't know why, but it just feels wrong not to. Atleast it gives me the worlds cleanest hands, considering I play games all the time XD

I see, Joan Crawford Syndrome too much? They say your hands can rot if you wash them too much, though.

*Holds hand up* Yeah, I'm part of the swear-madly-whenever-anything-and-everything-happens club too XD
Though I have to make sure I'm doing it under my breath... can't let my little brothers hear me >__> The bad part is now, whenever I come to play games around people I can't swear around, I end up using some of the most ridiculous substitute words instead (I'm told "shoelaces" is an apparent favourite of mine at the moment o_O)... or failing that, just mumbling incoherent nonsense. I've had more than one of my friends stare at me oddly before today because of that XDD

Lawl... and same, Beeker, I always lean left and right when I'm steering around corners XD
I used to get really annoyed about it when I was little, because I didn't understand turning the handset made no difference XD Ahh, if only we'd had wii remotes then XD

But I've noticed, leaning/moving around when I'm playing games isn't restricted to just racing games either... if the character comes really close to the edge of a high ledge, I tend to lean back as I desperately try not to let them fall off, and if, say, I'm in a vehicle under fire I also tend to flinch/duck whenever it takes a hit. Oh, and wireless controllers just encourage me more... I remember when I was trying to beat TAoL, I kept pacing around the room with the wii remote and driving my family nuts XD

So yeah. I think my main problem is I get waaay too involved in things :embarrassed:
I REGRET NOTHING.
