that might back fire a bit.. soon youll have students spending all their tiem on here.. not paying attention to the work.. skipping class to play.. lol

Fortunately, I haven't seen too many interruptions, if any at all. Closest came when I had a student tell me that they couldn't attend a creative writing clinic (voluntary) because he had to meet someone that was going to help him with completing CoP missions. I have used ffxi, regretfully, as an excuse as well. Couple weeks ago I skipped an open house because I had to pull Dyna.

I caught myself saying "do you need it?" to a friend the other day. But what made it bad is that I did "air-parenthesis" to auto-trans it.....

I saw a sign for THF Realty today. I thought to myself "Who would trust their real estate to a thief?"

I saw a sign of TE on boxes at work. I thought to myself, "Time Extension in this chest! Key it!" then I realized I am not in the game. lol

I too have spoken in the auto-translate fashion. <True Strike>, <Too Weak>, etc... I've also said afk while talking on the phone with my husband /blush.
One thing I can't believe I did was during the late evening I looked up into the sky and saw a full moon... I then thought to myself, "omg full moon! I should go home and craft something." ... mind you... I didn't think of FFXI at the time. My mind actually thought of real life stuff T_T

As others have stated, I regularly start texts /t, use the Tab key to short cut typing. On my way to work, there's a road sign for OAK RISE FARM, I always read it as RSE.
I will also announce when I need to take a <Bio> <Break>.

About a year ago in class I was reading something out loud that that had "party" in it an I read it as "PT". No one said anything so I kept rolling with it. >.>
Another time, a friend, that also plays XI, and I were outside(crazy right?) and a bee flew by his face and his instant reaction was; "holy ***, where'd that spawn from!?" Laughed my *** off. :x

My in-game name is Refyll (Like Refill...I'm a nurse) and I would sometimes say my name is Refyll when I call in medication for a patient to the pharmacy and have to correct myself.
Also when it really busy and the doctors ask me to do something for a patient I sometimes say, <I'm out of MP!> </heal>.

I woke up one morning, and while laying in bed, I thought to myself what job I needed to go to school. "Oh, I'll /BLM so I can warp after class." My next thought was, "Oh crap, what if I left my home point at home and not the dorms?" I then realized that I am HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE and started getting ready for class.

being asked how old you are and responding with what level you are in FFXI is a good one, lol.
or another one, using the phrase "/tell" frequently, ie: "Have you talked to Josh recently?" "yeah i slash telled him the other day"

Was so exhausted and stressed (from RL stuff, not XI >.>) one night and decided to go lie down instead of skilling up on pots with a friend. In my sleep, I sent a text to my mom about skilling up on pots the next day instead and hoping we don't get slept. It was nearly completely incoherent, and I had no recollection of sending it when I woke up the next day. Sleep texting ftl.
I think about the only other thing was telling customers 10k or asking for gil back when I worked in retail, and that only happened like once.

Driving down the road today and saw a guy on a scooter. Something about what he was wearing and the design of his scooter made it look like he was wearing RDM AF2 body. I did a triple-take.

Was walking down the street the other day, when a dog aggro'ed me from out of nowhere. But it checked as Too Weak, so kept walking and eventually deaggro'ed it.

Took an early lunch from work so I could get home and pick up some items I scoped on the AH.
Then when I got home I didn't eat until I had completed my XI business first.

A while ago when I was still in high school someone asked me which middle school I went to, I said Windurst. I didn't realize what I said until he looked at me funny and asked where that was. The name of the school is Winship.
Went to the grocery store and saw honey for sale, I grabbed it thinking I was going to use it to make acorn cookies (in game item).. I quit ffxi after that for a few months.
