when you're sick, and you say:
"hang on, I'll do it as soon as the coughlozenge downloads... er... I mean dissolves"

when your'e supposed to be doing homework, but your online instead (on LQ, of course)

when you wonder if you could put linux on that.

Whenever there's a pc in a movie or on TV, you look to see if it's running open source software.
You watched Lilo & Stitch just because of the title.
When using Windows you find that all your text documents end with ":wq" (while you grumble about forgetting to bring your liveCD).
You snicker whenever you hear "chord.wav" in the background.
