This is definitely lol-worthy, but... just check out the "Worst Threads Ever" thread. Stewart Campbell's comments on learning from criticism, in particular, still win the overall prize in my view.Matskat wrote: Hands down funniest intentional shit ever on shmups.com.

Re: You know you've been playing too many shumps when...
Yeah, I definitely know this feeling.
1. When I'm Playing the same shooter excessively and have gone for a couple days without any sleep. I'll start watching the game on the screen and forget that it is actually me playing. Eventually my brain returns and I'm confused, thinking "am I playing right now?...wait...is this me playing? I don't know, I don't think so... Oh, shit! this is me playing!"
2. The other thing that happens is when I fix my gaze on any sort of textured object--carpet, for instance--I will begin to hallucinate and the texture appears to be moving in a way that is similar the waves of cascading bullets in the shmup I playing.
3. Finally, when I'm walking through a public space like a grocery store where there are other people. I'll walk by people and around objects as normal, but in doing so I reminded of shmup gameplay and feel that my movements in real-life are oddly similar to the joystick-controlled movements of shmup spaceship/character.

And now for Shmupsamurai's "You've Been Playing Too Many Shmups" 2011 Edition! 
You know you've been playing way too many shmups when:
1) While skiing, you stick to only one side of the moutain and move slowly over to the opposite in hopes of herding the trees.
2) You develop a great fear of medium to large sphere-shaped objects within the surrounding environment.
3) When somebody starts tailing you on the freeway, you scream: "Damn, where's my Backshot?!"
4) During a visit to Japan, you try to desparately dodge every cherry blossom petal that floats in your direction.
5) You painfully and annoying resist against any atempt by your family to take you on vacation to Easter Island.
6) When it rains, you move in crazy motions while spinning to buzz the drops.
7) Light fixtures, street lights, and lamp posts start looking like gun emplacements.
8 ) While hiking in the moutains, you start humming the 1st stage theme from Gradius.
9) You eat your popcorn with every meal real fast to keep your combo going.
10) When you look at your salmon steak, you wonder what it would look like encased in metal and laser cannons.
