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. _________________ I need to make a sig, but I don't have the time. Maybe I will eventually. |

Oh no. I can talk and kill at the same time! I am a multifaceted multitasker from way back. _________________

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 need to make a sig, but I don't have the time. Maybe I will eventually. |

well im lucky in one respect -- i got 2 phone lines -- one just for the internet and one for the phone -- but my phone is in da other room so i got to stop while i got to the phone.
and this habbit is really anoying me -- now i got myself thinking about it -- i not only lift up my mouse and tap the desk with it -- but i gotta do it a certain amount of times and it has to be a scertain volume or it just doesnt feel right to stop tapping -- i hate anoying habbits like this |

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. _________________ <---- LinktoDeath-TPF-VS-

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. _________________ I need to make a sig, but I don't have the time. Maybe I will eventually. |

Oh yeah, of course - I have a deck of cards sitting here... and I shuffle them. eternally. whenever im doing anything that dont require using my hands, I shuffle cards. while im waiting for anything, shuffle cards. the cards have been shuffled so much that the faces of them are wearing off. |

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. _________________
