Because of x I am y (article) z.

Very simple. The name should explain it all. I'll kick it off.

Because of Half-Life 1&2 I am terrified of vents. I'm afraid of the headcrabs that always go 'kreeeeee!' and shoot out at you.

YO DAWG, I HERD YOU LIKE HEADCRABS, SO WE PUT A HEADCRAB IN YO VENT SO YOU CAN FEAR WHILE YOU FEAR!

Am I doing it right?

I think it's more like this.

Because of being mauled by a dog at age 3 I was terrified of dogs for quite some time.

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.

 Because of horrible, horrible habits of other students at a younger age(You SHOULD know this already!) I now find myself looking back on highschool being marred by their influence keeping me from asking questions, thus keeping me from learning.

 Now in college things are very smooth. I suppose my three years of homeschooling have manned me up to overcome that crap.

Because of being smarter than everyone, I am snooty about grammar and know that the word in parentheses should be "preposition" and not "article."


/sarcasm


/mostly

/but it actually should be preposition

Because of Roguelikes, I am scared about walking around corners because I know there is a & around them.

 Because of Team Fortress 2, I cannot have my back exposed. Ever. I must see everywhere all the time. I never have earphones turned on loud enough to drown out footsteps. I must be able to dodge any knives that make their way to my back.

 Also, pocketknives must always be within my sight.

Because of FPS in general I have to fight the urge to strafe past open doors. Passing open doors without looking in first means that I could get kill by an unknown enemy.

First ten minutes of play I ate my loincloth and then got some limbs torn off by a super friendly rat. Thumbs up from me.

NO!  YOU WILL BE KILL BY DEMONS!

Wow...  An unaltered netculture reference.  And in allcaps, no less.  I've really sunk to new levels.


Because of Monkey Island, I am always trying to stuff interesting objects down my pants.

Because of Dwarf Fortress, I am able to tell the difference between Indigenous and Androgenous rock. I also now use "Plump Helmet" in casual conversation.

Please tell me those are deliberate, not typos.

Because of Internet trolls and arguments on forums, I have the habit of being horribly verbose in everything I type.

Because of my time in the states, I no longer think that everyone there is amoral.
