Rolling a 1 in Real Life?
I saw a guy trip down the subway stairs and shouted "He rolled a 1!" Surprisingly, no one got the joke.
Jk - but seriously, how often do you guys say that when you see someone have a misstep? I say it occasionally and garner a lot of sideways glances. Those who know me and my habits (BB!) cringe at the lame reference.
I'm wondering how many of you say or think the same when you see someone spill their drink or bump into something?

Mmm, schadenfreude, how delicious. Also know as delectatio morosa in Latin, 幸灾乐祸 ('joy in calamity') in Chinese, shamaatah in Arabic, and joie mauvaise in French. It seems a lot of us do.

leedvermaak (joy in suffering)
answer to your question: only when actually playing D&D with friends. Happened once or twice. You should restrain yourself!!

As with Badoek, only during D&D. However, I do always count assists and tacklezones (sometimes even figuring out chainpushes) when looking at a crowd. Fortunately, I usually manage to constrain these thoughts within my skull.

morale: always have a reroll ready when going for it
hint: if the poor guy hurts himself, call the ambulance and dont shout out for an "apo". as we all know, much more reliable

Ok so this conversation happens about once a week in my house:
Me: "Can't find the egg timer."
Wife: "It's right there in front of you."
Me: "Oh. Must have botched my perception check... again!"
NB: If you are wondering why I would so often be searching for the egg timer, you probably don't have kids.

My wife is dyspraxic and is constantly dropping/bumping into stuff. I'll have to start trying this instead of my current approach of just standing there laughing :)

I find myself changing percentages to dice rolls all the time at work when talking with coworkers, "What is likelihood of X happening?" Me: "It's about a 3+, maybe a 2+ if we get lucky." Boss: blank stare. Me: completely oblivious of why he doesn't respond nor understand what I mean.

Two of my youngest kids are playing sports (hockey/handball) and when I am watching the games I occationally Think of missed Dodges and gfi´s and such!

Both my boys play BB, so we share these jokes often!

Nah, not the 1ers. But when something falls from the table and I manage to catch it I usually think that Wow, that was a sixer this time... And when it first bounces from my hands but finally I do catch - clearly a ReRoll in work. But I only say it aloud when BB friends are around.
