lol... i've noticed, in real life, everything seems to remind me of FF in some way. like if my mom says, "Watch out for a blizzard in the mountains," i think of beacedine glacier and i think of me casting blizzard. haha... or if my grandma says, "Do you like silence?" i want to answer, "Yes, it's very good against goblin leechers and gamblers!"

so anyway, i'm gonna try to find just any random news story online and i want to see what FFXI things you think of just by reading this story.

k here's one:

hey there's even an FF word in the title

lmao, I always look at liscence plates and see things...

Ive seen "WS" "CKD" "TNL" and many other common phrases from FFXI in liscence plates...

Also, at work, you can type in what name you want on your register (Since it keeps records by your employee number, you dont have to use your real name) And I use FFXI related crap often, so far no customers have noticed it and pointed it out...

I use things like "Viviti" Tarutaru" "TP100WSOK" "Jponry" etc.

I think the auto translator did more bad to me than the rest of the game, especially when I'm talking to other people who haven't played the game.

Very true.

Instead of telling my co-worker I was about to take a lunch break, I accidently told her I was going "AFK a while"

Another time someone pointed out a full moon while we were walking in a parking lot, and I commented somethign along the lines of "Nice night to synthesize" and got a good wack to the back of my head for doing so.
