An indication that I should take a break from WoW

Wait for it.

I’m retired and WoW is what I do to entertain myself. I play 6-8 hours every day. I never felt like I should take a break until today.

I was driving to the grocery store and listening to Gentle Giant (Bluetooth from my phone to car speakers). All of a sudden, the music stopped. I have a touchscreen entertainment system in my car, so I touched play, then fast forward, but nothing was working. I was mashing buttons and nothing was responding. And then I actually thought and said to myself: “I’m lagging.”

And then I started laughing and that’s when it hit me. I guess I should take a break.

For me, that would just reinforce to me how fun WoW is.

Also retired. At one point I decided I needed a break because I started ‘seeing’ Azeroth herbs by the side of the road. : )

You know you’re in too deep when you start referring to alarm clocks as weak auras. :skull::skull::skull:

:man_shrugging:
I just see it as being a gamer.

I routinely refer to stuff as “mats” and when I make something for someone I refer to it as “crafting the item”. I generally only speak like that to people I know are gamers though, I’d talk normally to regular people

Every time I get some sort of office memo that deals with my “coworkers”, I always read it as “cow orkers.”

First thought: They misspelled “orcs.”

Second thought: I wish there were more of us besides Tauren and Orcs, but overall, two solid choices.

Third thought: At least we’re Horde.

Final thought: I wonder if I can get out of this meeting and play WoW.

When a coworker is over eager and tries to shift some work your way you them hell no…you pulled it you tank it.

Only 1 coworker got that no explanation first time used. He quit around MOP lol.

My indication it was time for a break from Wow, when I started putting off doing Anything besides sit infront of my computer and play a game.

I took a 12 month break, didn’t think about the game and found other things to pass the time. Picked up playing other games with my wife and kids, no stress to make sure I logged in every day in fear I would miss out on something was nice.

Have you ever asked a salesperson in a store how much “gold” something cost IRL?
