You know you've played too much Lemmings when...
« on: August 17, 2009, 11:14:33 AM »
I found this thread once when I was looking through the old (really old) forums, and I figured now is a good time to bring it back since... well, you know.


You know you've played too much Lemmings when...

You tell people that your house was built using the brick tileset.
Your standard response when someone asks you for help is "Just a minute!"
You keep a bear trap and 10 ton weight handy, just in case.
You have a flashing "OUT" sign above your front door.

and, of course...
You take a week of in an attempt to preserve your sanity.

You see a traffic warden holding his arms out and think you have to turn round.
You think you can jump off cliffs safely if you carry an umbrella (don't try this at home!)
You're afraid of going out in the snow in case there are icicle traps.
You wonder how anyone manages to make horizontal bridges and whether it's a glitch.
You blow yourself up if you're not going to get home in time because it makes no difference anyway.

Yeah, I have played too much lemmings because I made the level "Brick layered lemming house".

Haha, subtle. I like that one. :)

You know you have played too much Lemmings when you shout "Yippee!" (or go "Bwok!") when you return home.

"Bwok?" What do you mean by that?

It's how I remembered the original home sound at the time of posting that, but it sounds closer to "Boing!", thinking about it. :P

... You can't make it through a day without humming at least ten choruses of Lemmings music.
... Your entire diet consists of Lemming Drops, Pea Soup and Diet Lemmingaid.
... You yell, "Basher!" in a squeaky voice and start pounding on walls or doors, hoping to break through.
... Your greatest fear is getting eaten by a giant lizard.

You write a program that spits out all the words to "Ten Green Bottles".

Would you believe I actually had to do this today for my course work? :D

Are you serious?!

You know you've played too much Lemmings when your opinion on an OS can be based on its reaction to .dat files in a folder (because Lemmings uses them!).  To my knowledge, my old XP installation is the only OS that ever reacted like that.

When you only walk in a straight line, and if you're turning, only in 90/180 degree angles. (too much L3D :P)

In case our new forumers haven't seen this yet...

You've played this game just a little too much, and it's impacting on your life in some rather unusual ways. Like...


-You check the position of your house on the town map and declare it "invalid" because it doesn't line up with the grid.
   - You then demand it be moved so that it does.

-You see someone standing still next to a wall and try to walk through it.

-You apply for a job at the Steel Works.

Um... probably not, there could be more posts by someone on the Off Topic Discussion forums.

Oh yeah! :thumbsup: That is the funniest and best ever joke.
