Fallout IRL

Post » Mon Mar 07, 2011 12:07 am

For any fallout game, but mainly directed for Fallout New Vegas.

For example, I'm currently more interested in vegetables now considering how many wild things my character eats. He might as well be a vegetarian.
I saw a beer bottle cap with a star on it and for a second I felt like taking it haha.

Anyone else cannot grab a bottle of water without thinking of "purified water"?

I know to hoard as much ammo and guns when doing anything.

:rofl:

Though yes I do admit every time I drink Cactus Coolers in real life I start to think about Sunset Sarsaparillas. :D

It makes me want to increase my IRL "skills" more. Not to mention making me love swing and western music more then I did. Now I can't do anything without it. :celebration:

I no longer smoke my cigarettes I just stash them in trash cans. Now I know I'm helping finance future generations.

I've read about research into plasma and laser weaponry the other day. And my immediate thought was "God, they have no idea how much those will svck". ;-)

At the moment I'm sleep deprived, haven't eaten in two days, ran out of advlt diapers and had to use the curtains over the window next to me, haven't seen sunlight in a few weeks, dehydrated, lost vision in one eye, haven't brushed my teeth since release, have grown a nice middle eastern like beard, forgot to feed my fish (R.I.P G-Dizzle), lost my girlfriend, forgot to pay the bills for my water and heat, slowly freezing to death, got fired from my job (I'm guessing by now..), broke two of my Xbox 360s and now playing on the PC which might explode any minute from overheating, missed my shows like Dexter (a few episodes now..), got my car stolen from my driveway, haven't showered in what seems like forever and slowing choking on the fumes of my body odor. but on the upside I'm enjoying NV. :tops:

We joke about it at work almost every day, my good friend Mike and I who both play will use lines from the game or funny references whenever possible.

I got a whole bunch happier about my shotgun when I found Dinner Bell in the game, it made me love my RL version even more!

Every free moment I'm not with my kids or working, I'm modding for this game now (like Fallout 3 before it). It would be hard to pin-down exactly how many ways these games affect my life, I guess :fallout: "really devoted fan" doesn't quite describe it accurately.

Last friday me and some friends drank some beer in the living room of my house. The next morning when I entered the living room I saw bottle caps scattered all over the table and litereally the first thing I thought was "Hey, caps!". Of course, at that time I had a hangover and I just got up from only a few hours of sleep.

Whenever I kill someone, I loot their body for armor, chems., and weapons. After that I look for a safe.

I lock my doors out of the fear that some random person will come into my home and start talking to me.

I'm looking at real food and am judging by it's density and shelf life how many Rads it may have absorbed. Be don't be eating Spam. I slow down at any corner in a building and sneak a peek lest the Securitrons get antsy. Someone drops a cake plate I scream like a banshee, then try to disarm it. I see red lettering highlight [censored] I should'nt open (I work in a Police Station!). I used to be on two tablets a day for this stuff, but apparently I'm normal... (and to Quote my Gynaecologist: 'Sperm Donors of Australia....thankyou for...Coming.')
