SLaddiction
July 26, 2007 7:27 amWhich makes me think I might need to update the ‘you know you are addicted to SL when…‘ list.
You know you’re addicted to Second Life…
- When you point out camping area’s at a brand boot at a real life festival. (As in campers, not as in ‘tent and sleep’.)
- When you can’t have sex without the appropriate poseballs. (Zoe Connolly)
- When you walk up to a woman and ask her where she bought her great skin. (Tiessa Montgolfier)
- When you are constantly frustrated at not being able to zoom and rotate on firefox, your TV, in your backyard, while driving… (Alexander Burgess)
- When you refer to your clothes wardrobe as your inventory. (Shockwave Plasma)
- When you wonder why there are no furries on the streets. (Shockwave Plasma)
- When you are surprised your genitals don’t detach. (Shockwave Plasma)
- When you walk into a good friend and say /hug (persons name) and waits still she/he accept. (Bloodhex)
- When you say ao off when you gonna sit on the dinertable. (Bloodhex)
- When you start to use alt+0 and alt+8 as zoom commands in Photoshop. (Chloe Streeter)
- When you constantly threaten to shoot people. In First Life.
- When you complain about the lag in a traffic jam. (Max Malick)
- When you almost think of de-rezzing your car at the mall when you can’t find a parking space. (Stellaarbandid)
- When you stop buying art supplies. (Siyu Suen)
- When you accidently tell someone in real life that you have to go and rez dinner now. (Phoenixa Sol)
- When you mistake a hungover blurriness for textures Z-fighting each other. (Kisa Naumova)
- When you refer to changing clothes in First Life as ‘editing appearance’. (Gislain Knibber)
- … ?
Voila. Done.

When you find yourself standing in the pose/stance you have set up in your Zhao/AO.
(guilty as charged, my stance is my hands behind my back looking at the floor and shuffling one foot in front of me.. I’ve actually found myself doing this stance in RL a few times)
Dinee, I think I have a copy of that pose somewhere in my First Life inventory! ;)
- when you fear you’ll sink into the ground whenever you pass the city line in your car.
How about
- When you change all your clocks to PST
- when you try to detach your hair by right clicking your elbow?
Myg, I use my leg for that! =)
when just by sitting on a chair, you expect to get paid for it??
which actually, sometimes, happens !! especially on monday mornings and friday afternoons, lol
Recently I had sex in RL feeling weird we hardly spoke a word.
Mine should read: “When you start to use Ctrl+9 and Ctrl+8 as zoom commands in Photoshop.”
Obviously, it is Ctrl instead of Alt that is used with 8, 9, and 0 to zoom in SL, and Ctrl+0 *does* have a zoom function in Photoshop.
Guess I should go fix my mistake in the Flickr thread, too :)
Well, I often use ctrl+8 and ctrl+9 in SL, only to find that it does not what I want. =d
my worst is when I try to zoom and rotate a SL snapshot on the web
Hihi… In my second week, I was thinking way too much about SL. I went into a pizza place in a mall, and thought… “hmm, a slice is L$360…” Another time I passed a girl with a pretty hairdo, and I thought: “nice prims!” - then laughed myself silly when I realised what just went through my mind :D
