You Know You've Been Playing ESO Too Much When...

I will go first:

When you are watching a show that has a random shot of yellow flowers on a tall weed and you immediately think, "Oh, there's some jute, I should pick that and make a robe."

And additionally, you know you've been playing Morrowind too much when out of the corner of your eye you think you see a guar in the bushes on the way to school -- and don't even think much of it. And also, you keep thinking you can hear the music from it all the time, just out of earshot. :)
You die first!

    I'm a chef myself, but sadly have not projected that into my provisioning, any game recipes worth trying? It would be a laugh to make one a dinner special.

    UrQuan made a thread about making ESO recipes in real life. You should totally throw your two cents in.

    Well, when I first saw this thread: I thought: nothing.

    Then, last night, I had a dream. I had a dream that one of my friends changed her Mundus Stone IRL from the Ritual to the Mage. Needless to say, I am still trying to piece that dream together.

    When you are biking home near construction, see one of those temporary warning lights (the ones attached to temporary street blocking things) and immediately get a rush of adrenaline because there is an aspect rune and no one is around to get it.

    This is a terrible pic, but I couldn't find a good one from at night:

    cin8mGt.jpg
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    When you realise that you speak to guild members more than you do to some family members

    When you make awful ESO jokes to said guild members

    Guild member: I bought FIFA 16 today and feel like I'm being unfaithful. Do you think ESO will take me back?
    Me: No, it's asking for a divorce and wants its ring of Mara back....

    Yeah I fear I may need help....
