"I am as stubborn as I am lazy" That's it. That's the most relatable line I've ever heard. I'm gonna use that line from now on

Melee killing everyone in every level by running up to them in full view of every other enemy while playing as the world's top secret agent is the most Mike thing that Mike can do and has ever done.

In Skyrim, every time a guard says "let me guess, someone stole your sweetroll" I immediately drop what I'm doing and go steal a sweet roll. Side note: not that easy to find a sweet roll to steal in Markarth.

GTA: Vice City. One night, during a group play session at my friend Wayne's house, someone idly wondered if you flew a helicopter into a Pan and Spray would you actually trigger a repaint. With cries of "For Science!" we each took turns to attempt this tricky feat. We chose the one on the western island facing the water, so we would have a good fly-up with minimal interference. 45 minutes later, after many comedic failures, I squeezed the ungainly whirlybird into the garage, landed it, and sure enough the door closed and reopened with a newly painted helo. The fact that I blew it up trying to take off indoors did nothing to diminish my sense of accomplishment.

In The Witcher, whenever i came across an abandonned castle or cave or house where there are specters, i made a duty to always light up every torch in the building to give back some life to the rooms, so that ghost feel good in their environement.

These kinds of lists are my favorites. I enjoy hearing you guys' personal feelings about and experiences with games.

I remember a long time ago before achievements were even a thing, my brother and I spent hours and hours trying to beat the original Splinter Cell without alerting anyone to anything. If the guard went "What was that?" It was concidered a mission failure and we had to reload. We nearly made it all the way through the entire game, until the very last level. There was a guard guarding stairs or a hallway or something, and we just couldn't figure out how to get around him. We must have spent several hours watching and creeping, and starting over and over and over again. Finally we just bit the bullet and tossed a can to the other side of room followed by the inevitable "Who's there?". We managed to finish the rest of the game according to our rules, but the one guard still bugs me to this day.

The thing I love the most about Ellen is how everything she does, she's like "I know this looks stupid... and it is stupid... but bear with me, I can explain" And that speaks to me so much.
@KizuRai
The first one with Jane trying to justify Fishing and literally everyone just incredulous about it has me dying from laughter already.
@ObeyCamp
I'm 100% with Ellen on the closing safes/crates/doors/etc., and there's no greater feeling of having been cheated than when the devs don't program the option to do so!

I'd like to see "achievements you accidentally earned" a list a times you had no idea what you were doing was going to get anything. I'm always entertained when I'm doing something random or dumb and it turns out the developer thought of it.
@ichigokarasu
I love how Ellen talks about how it was her goal to leave everything neat and tidy, like no one is there, and she's wearing a shirt whose slogan starts with, "She is messy" 🤣

Not sure how much you'd class it as an 'achievement' exactly, but I used to play the Ezio based Assassin's Creed games in a style I like to call "Giving The Families Closure". The idea was that the random town guards you frequently had to kill usually hadn't actually done anything to warrant you murder-killing them. They were basically just guys doing their jobs, making a living pretty much the only way they knew how. The worst they'd do was sound an alarm or attack me on account of all those people I done murder-killed. Younger me decided that it was perfectly justifiable to murder-kill as many of them as I wanted (I was an assassin after all), but disposing of the bodies was a step too far. Hiding bodies was fine, as long as it was in places that one could reasonably expect them to be eventually found (in a haystack for example), but if a body was destroyed or placed somewhere it might never be found then the family of said murder-killed guard would never know for sure if they'd been killed on the job, or if they'd abandoned them, or if they'd comitted suicide or whatever. The guard may have gotten between me and my objective, but I had no quarrel with their family. Plus I figured that there might be some kind of payout for families of guards killed on the job (I probably just murder-killed their sole breadwinner after all). For the most part, this just meant not throwing bodies into wells or rivers, but I also decided that leaving bodies on rooftops was taboo as well (how often do people find themselves of roofs after all??), so whenever I killed a guard on top of a building I'd always carry the body to the nearest populated street and hurl the body into the crowd. For their families sake.

In Breath of the Wild, I had started a challenge where I tried to beat the game with 3 hearts. While doing this, I climbed to the top of Ganons Castle and got a sweet screenshot of me on top of the world. One of my personal best achievements.
@Ceece20
Jane, I can completely relate to you. When I was first leveling my first toon, hunter, in WoW, I spent ages skinning. I was determined to get the gold to purchase riding and mounts at the levels they unlock at (30 and 60). To raise the gold I used my skinning skill to farm all the low skins and sell them on AH or, if they didn’t sell, I vendored them. Yes I leveled up sooo many times farming skinning (the least profitable until max level), that I went from 30-37 and 55-60 just from hunting mobs and skinning them. No questing, nothing besides killing and skinning mobs.
