I was trying to refer to houndeyes..maybe it didn't work.

yes, i know... that how i knew they had high pitched voices. But most dogs dont bark like that.
 
Really, Tant, where are you going to come across a houndeye in real life? A dog was his way of relating it to the real world. Thought that was obvious.

312) You are amazed at the totally unscripted "AI" of everyone around you.

313)You mistake the fumagation man next door as a combine soldier,walk over and proceed to bludgen him on the head with your crow bar,and you are then purplexed as to why you dont hear that Beeeeeeeeep sound,even though you hit him 50 times and you are sure that he is dead!!.

314) you start throwing soda cans at regular cops on the street.

315) You try to talk,but no matter how hard you try,you cant!!

316) You wake up look around and think "Yes! a new expansion pack" then you get out of bed walk right up to your wall and say"and its high definition!.

317) You walk around tentitively first forward,then backwards then side to side then suddenly spin around quickly,then you think "omg Valves finally solved the stuttering!

318) Over the last week you have been playing hl2 just before you wake up,you hear "Wake up and smell the ashes"then you snap awake,wondering why you fell like you have been asleep for 6 years!!

328) You deide to jump out of you 2nd story bedroom window "Just to see what would happen" and when you hit the ground your shoked to hear a womans voice out of nowhere say "emergency user death imminent",when you thought all you would get is "major fracture detected".

329) Everyday when you are just going about your daily buisness you keep hearing barneys voice say "Hey Gordon!" but you cant find the source and its starting to drive you insane!

330) You wake up,but everything is totally dark no a sound can be heard you start to panic,and just as your about to freak out a image box pops up in front of you seemingly hovering in mid air the words read "Validating hl2 files",you scream ohhh dear goood noooo! not again!! then you slip back to sleep.

Just as your struggling you start seeing the room become brighter and brighter,untill it is so bright it engulfs you..then you suddenly snap out of it ..and your sitting on a chair..not just any chair,oh no,it is YOUR chair,and as your eyes begin to refocuss you see your monitor gradually fadeing back into view,with half-life 2 written across the screen.

340)When your friend says to you,"OMG!! I can see hl2 movies playing on the surface of your eyes!!
341) Instead of using your front door to get into your room you begin scouring the streets for crates,you start stacking them up to reach your room 2 floors up,just as you are about to enter through the window an old lady(suspecting you of braking in)says in a typical "old lady voice","young man what are you doing",

354) People begin to get blinded by the reflection of your white skin,due to extreme lack of sun.

355) Natural light blinds you for several minutes,you are now developing a dependency on wearing sun shades,even in the house,quite odd is the fact that you dont have to wear them at all when looking at your monitor.

359)When someone stutters you say "dont worry,just say that exact same thing again and I bet you wont stutter because the sound file is allready loaded in you brain!" ;)
