The worst for me is probably resting my lower leg on the chair and sitting on it. I don't know why I do it, but I do it anyway. If I get up after playing for a couple of hours like this, I can't walk for the next ten minutes. Bad, especially when I'm SOSed by the shop because someone else hasn't turned up. Ah nuts!

Also, I eats doughnuts and all sorts of other cakes and generally unhealthy foods, then make my mouse and keyboard all sticky. D'ah!

If the phone rings while I am playing, I will take my headset off and start talking on the phone. The only problem with that is that I still press my key for talk for the game. I wonder how many of my phone conversations you guys have gotten to listen in on.

You don't leave the game when you have to talk on the phone? I kinda have to beings I am on dial-up. But I would quit out of the game when I have to do something anyhow.

Well if I didn't have to use my phone line to connect to the internet, I would probably be doing the same at times.

I only got one line so when the someone calls, i get kicked off, even when its a wrong number... While waiting to connect to games which is usually around 2 minutes or so i usually bounce a bouncy ball against the door. I also eat when playing a lot and have spilled so much on the keyboard especially on the keypad that it really quite nasty like Sunnyd or coke or something.

Your setup is almost the same as mine. One line. My parents have call waiting on it so they can actually tell when someone calls. This is quite annoying at times.

When I saw the title of the post I thought it was "Annoying Hobbits".

Guess I don't have to post in defense of the little mofo's.
