When you're sitting around with your friends having a few drinks and someone starts talking about 'Unicorns' and you instantly think they're being vulgar.
The Milk in my fridge doesn't expire it DECAYS... People look at me like I'm insane when I say that.. then I'm stuck standing in my kitchen like, "Uh... it expires in a week.."
"I've got a dose of Spiritual Healing right here for you!"
You know you play too much Aetolia when you watch a British murder mystery, in which one of the characters is named "Enoria", and you cannot help but go "Enorian" in your head whenever you hear the name, as if the show is typoing it.
When, without having any sort of tracker, your timing on ability CDs becomes a bit....uncanny...

I had a dream last night that I woke up at the Four Corners. Woke up, but it was real, man. The first thing I noticed was that it was empty. All of the sigils and amulets and orbs that myself and others have dropped there over the last few weeks were all gone, which was really weird. There is one person there besides me, and a bush. A bush! So I probe it, and low and behold it is a shrubbed person. A shrubbed person named @erzsebet, who I don't even know or really talk to. So random. So weeird.
When you tally up the credits/coins value of all the artifacts you have. >.>

**To be clear, this is a too much aetolia when, not a spend too much money on aetolia when, because the vast majority of that is time/effort expended not real-money bought.
You know you play too much Aetolia when other players post legitimate, real life physical or psychological medical issues, and the first reaction of part of your brain is, "have you tried your curatives?"
After an RP session with your chosen Divine and conversations about your goals in the order you have a dream about becoming the living embodiment of said divine. Glowy aura and everything.
I took the day off work to play in the triptycha tile tourney for the year 400 event. So I took off a day of paid work...to play a game while playing a game.
Somehow in your dreams you end up on some field trip, and you have to wear name tags. Then you get the bright idea to put your AET name on the tags instead of your real one and make up names for those who don't play.

Two: When you dream about Imperian and Lusternia being closed and the entire playerbase of those two games joining Aetolia.
Three: When people ask me for a nickname and I tell them to call me Z.

- when you notice a friend's friend on Facebook is called @Xenia and you wonder how the character's player knows that particular friend.
- when you go to the farmacy to pick up some medicine and when asked, you know the cures in Aetolia better than RL cures.
...and immediately think Anfini. I swear, he submitted an artisanal just like this once, right?
