I ran across something with the word "lynched" in it on the Internet, and immediately went here to check on the latest Werewolf game.

Actually, you know you're addicted when the word "lynch" reminds you more of Werewolf than it does of hate crimes.

It was around three hours after seeing that post when I happened to meet a friend of mine on the corridor and she said "Look what I have for snack!" and showed me a small package of Kelloggs Multi Groin She must have wondered why a started laughing at it...

When you are watching a film classic like "The Thing" and all you can think of is "Hey, this is just like in WW!"

This evening in the cafeteria, I found myself compulsively analyzing everybody who walked by my table. It's a scary place now, because there's people everywhere and YOU DON'T KNOW WHO MIGHT BE A WEREWOLF.

Maybe I need therapy.

When you are doing a biology exam with a question about the speciation of lemmings and you chuckle at the scientific name of the lemming, lemmus lemmus, because you think it resembles Lommy...

When you are studying Dante's Inferno, and you summarize Ulysses' final voyage with:

On Facebook, I just received a notification that I have "1 (Lil) Green Patch request" (some sort of extra application for the site).

I'm sure all you other BDers can understand who that instantly reminded me of...

Haha I received that one as well and had to accept it just because it had such a good name... (Me, an egoist? No way!)
