3496 - You find extremely odd that the policemen don't attack you as soon as you are spotted. You are also baffled by the cameras on the banks that does not sound alarms as soon as they catch you.

3497. You wonder why the modern club doesn't help you knock out the police, so you have to slaughter them all as a rebelling gesture towards the buggy world engine. Of course you can't do that, so after a knock out gas treatment (because of a bomb not used correctly by you "it can't knock me out. it will only take a few health shields") the jail cell walls surround you. Prepared like a good keeper you keep the lock picks where the sun doesn't shine (guess the fm), but the door has a magnetic card lock. You start prison riots often so you can at least be like the prisoner in Shoalsgate police station and even chase mice and rats with a hammer so that your ramblings will keep truth to them. You successfully wind up as the lunatic in Shoalsgate and you are happy as a clam harassing every person you hear nearing to the cell.

#3498: you don't know any proper english so you have your friend type in for you through his account. The only english he knows are the basic words for playing thief. Also it would be much more stealthy to not leave any trace of your presence, so you use another person's account.
#3499: you wanted to build your house exactly like Constantine's but after playing Thief 3 you changed your mind and decided to build it resembling Garret's apartment.
AND NOW FOR #3500
If you are a metalhead, you are stuck with the tune from the song "The Quiet Place" by In Flames, which you've been listening repeatedly while playing Thief
#3501: You meet someone while crushing a party, who has played Thief and you both keep talking about it until 2-3 AM.
#3502: You are sneaking all the way to your friend's house when suddenly some dogs started barking and then you wonder why there are fucking dogs in "real life", instead of thinking why there are no dogs in Thief.
#3503: When you go to a bar or similar places you always go and sit at the darkest spot of the place, where there won't be anything on the wall behind you (e.g. posters) that could shine and give away your shape. You also order beer in a bottle to take it with you just in case you need a blackjack in the parking lot.
#3504: You no longer have fear of heights or darkness
#3505: You are always comparing every horror movie with the Cradle mission and always conclude that the movie is PUNY!!!!!

You know that you've been playing Deadly Shadows way too much when you stop washing to avoid waking up in prison.

#3511. When you pre-emptively download the thread of spoiler hints for an FM because you know you're probably going to need it sooner or later, and keeping the thread locally on your computer is easier to deal with than searching for it on TTLG later.
