Topic: Habits picked up from video games

Having just finished the Ace Attorney Trilogy (again) I've been trying to incorporate the awesome character mannerisms into everyday communication; it's hard to pull off without looking like a complete tool, though. I'm still waiting for the day I can do the "smug head shake" in the middle of a heated debate.

So have any of you picked up something similar from games, whether it be some quirks or phrases?

Thanks to GTA I now kill the prostitute after I am done and take my money back

For some reason I tend to do a really slight reverence with my head every time I meet someone. Like I'm a stereotypical japanese businessman or something.

It's not a full "headbutt" like they do, but I can't help it, I do it subconsciously. And there's no way I picked that up from anywhere else.

I have a habit of jumping on turtles

Oh good, I thought I was the only one

I get my donkey kicked a lot because I've been trained by JRPGs to expect people to politely take turns punching each other.

OCD from Minecraft.

I break into peoples homes and break their pots.

@Dipper723 That was YOU! All my rupees gone thanks to you.

well, i once tried to use a car transporter as a jump ramp but then i realized i wasn't playing Mario Kart.

I have frequently wanted to pause real life, only to realize there is no pause button.

Last year, I've played Fire Emblem: Awakening for so long that I actually kept saying "Gods!" when something went wrong.
Actually, I still haven't stopped.

If i get something, I hold it above my head as friends read a textbox describing the item...

Interestingly enough, that is the one gesture from those games that i genuinely use in court on a regular basis.

But you don't point your finger at someone and yell "Objection!" whenever you disagree with someone?

After playing Resident Evil remake I always remember to burn the zombies before they turn into crimson heads.

I second the "Gods!" from Awakening, although I keep using it around people who don't get the reference and think I'm just weird.

Rhythm Thief is also responsible for my closet of formal attire, my interest in music and dance, and my ability to speak French. Yes, that game made me spend hundreds of dollars and learn a language. I was at a point in life where I was lost, and I needed to start from scratch, and I thought, "Phantom R is classy. I'll just do everything he does." And it worked! What a role model.

After I played Dragon Age: Origins, I found myself saying "tis" (as in "it is") quite a lot. Morrigan would say it all the time and it eventually just became part of my vocabulary for a while.

After playing Assassin's Creed for the first time many moons ago, I developed a fondness for wearing a hood.

Drinking and swearing.
