I can no longer even utter the phrase "See ya" without sounding like Mega Man. It's become so ingrained into my vernacular and stands out enough that people at school used to think it was something that only I ever did. :01:
Have any of you guys ever had Legends get so ingrained into your life that stuff like this has started to happen to you too, or is it just me?

Same, actually. In fact, the only reason I say still "See ya!" is because of the way Megaman said it in MML1; he sounded really cool.

That does strike a cord. Certain common phrases have a tendency to come out matching the corresponding Legends voice clip. One is "not again!" in the wavering, miserable way Teisel says it when the Blitzkrieg bites the dust. "Thank you." is often in danger of being followed up with "so much! I bet there are a lot of people who'll wanna see this!", and my voice may get all gravelly when I have to say "I don't believe it..." I'm sure there are others I can't recall offhand.
There's gotta be some representation of the fandom brainwashing besides voices though.

People laugh when you do a victory fist pump in real life. :01:
I think I've also done the See Ya thing, but probably not nearly as closely to the actual tone as you have. Most likely probably a few other lines too that I don't even remember. Looking back at things I used to watch/play/etc, I'm usually shocked how many of my personal idiomatic phrases were taken directly from different media eh.

Oh yes. The fist pump always gets a few stares, but I've done that too. Especially when I'd toss an empty soda bottle (my school's soda machines never had cans) into a trans can from across the room and it actually went in.

I think I did that fist pump thing in grade school once...everyone in the room laughed, though, so I never did it again.

I also tended to do that a bit in elementary school. When I'd get my trash in the can tossing it too eh. (or just about anything else for that matter) I think I did it in high school once. I don't think people laughed, but I got some weird stares. :01: Let's see other things... Well I have to say, kicking a dog is not half as hilarious as it looks in RMD1. In fact, you can get in trouble for that eh. And don't even get me started on what people will do to you if they catch you trying to ride a duck.

I can't hear certain classical pieces of classical music without thinking of Legends. My music appreciation professor played 'Four Seasons' and 'Little Fugue' during class the day before MML3 was announced. XD

... for me... why the hell each time I hear "Good Luck!" I get Roll's voice on my head? That and of course fist pump... which I don't do in public... XD but when I see some references in real life with Legends.. I can't help myself but laugh. For example, seeing a small white and brown dog, or someone kicking cans lieing around.
In class there's this guy right next to me that when in breaks he goes to listen classic music (I am in a informatic's course, not in a school). ANd I always wait to see if he gets to play Little Fudge on the computer. And I really had the temptation to give to him my MP3 of the DASH OST with Juno's Little Fudge theme XD.

Maybe your professor knew something we didn't...

Oh, that's right, learning things in real life after first experiencing them obliviously in Legends you can't help but associate Legends with them. I'd already heard Primavera first time I played MML2, so it doesn't happen with that, but it does with Little Fugue and Air on a G String. I also had to start doodling Bonne mechs in my notebook in the Sociology class where they brought up the terms "Gesellschaft" and "Gemeinschaft".

I think around middle school was when I would walk around with my fists closed.
Thankfully, in where I live, no one makes fun of you if you do a fist pump. ;D

I used to walk like Megaman, you know, fist closed, back straight, long strides, and slowly.... Yeah, people sometimes stare at me in a strange way. :22: oh, and i hear Megaman´s footsteps while doing it. I also drink soda the same way as Megaman. I kick talk to dogs so they get calmed.
I started to hear classical music after i played the games, and i have the "flutter vs gesselschaft" theme on my head when it´s my turn to do something a´la NXC.

Similar to what's been said before, I hear Roll's voice every time someone says "Good Luck!". I guess it just sticks with you.
I also kick soda machines. They give me nothing in return, nor do they explode.

Actually, It's effecting my fiancé more than myself:
She grew up on LOZ, I grew up on MM, ot MML, just all MM games.
However my big 500+ hours of my life dump was MML, and well how it's effecting her is: she's never been into Megaman, ever, and so, now she's getting used to hearing about it.
Heck, I dont even know much about the MM timeline myself, i just know the order of the games: MM, MMX, MMZ, MMZX, MML, then in AU: MMBN, MMSF
It's fun that i can rant her ear off, but i dont really think she listens to it all...but hey thats payback for her treating me to non-stop danny phantom Overdoses when I've told her 950,000 times I despise anything/everything Danny Phantom/Nickelodeon.
But yeah it's hitting her harder than me....
