I can't look at the moon anymore without thinking of the night time clear skies weather icon (in it's various moon shapes depending on if the moon is crescent or full). This is not a joke btw, i texted chris about it a while back :/

you two talk about the moon by sms........... this struck me more than the way you see the moon!!!! gayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. <3 (you know well my intentional twisted interpretation! :p)

for my part: i started counting time or thinking about the length of time in 'ticks' outside of bush. .__.

HAHA. So true. I definitely went straight to GAAAAAAAAYYYYY as well, also in a good way.

And yes, i've been guilty of tick counting, rather than actual time. It's a more useful unit of measurement tbh.

Everytime you see a real life acronym being used you mistake it for a bushtarion one.

Examples:

Classwork - CW
Homework - HW
Personal Assistant - PA
Application - Apprentice - App
Compact Disk - CD
Prime Minister - Puppet Master - PM

Related - I've also seen loads of acronyms in car number plates - particularly one that clearly read PoM :)

The moment when Younge and myself walked out of college and both got pranked online and told we had 10 minutes to get on, to then proceed to sprint through town to the library to send out. I cringe at the thought of that memory.

I do chemistry yet never have an issue with acronyms. Maybe I should escape before it's too late...

''I must get out, I must be free'' :p

Yes, quit chemistry, it may interfere with your bush career

Tbh it's not really an issue, I rarely see acronyms used in bush that you would see in most compounds you encounter in chemistry but it does happen occasionally :)

At secondary school, me, younge, and 2 others played, and we all got contacted at lunch. all 4 of us nearly ran into each other getting to the IT department asap. Game got serious.

Possibly related to another forum thread: That moment you realise that Arsonists don't destroy plants any more...

The moment where you complain and moan about every addition, suggestion and correction of the game and make sure you win every round by contacting 10-15 players every single night for like 30 days straight. Everybody who doesn't want to be disturbed at night leaves, all the players that simply do not want to be thinking about a game whilst their out enjoying life and socialising with friends eventually quits because the requirement for most Bushtarion alliances now to give out your number to a bunch of contactable narbs in order to play with them.

All that remains is one contactable alliance and a few bots...possibly a training alliance.

That, and the countless times I skipped out of class for a few minutes to log in on the school library told me I was pretty hooked.
I did that in college once, a few days later I hit delete.
