When you feel like changing the background to the TV

... when you wonder how you could hack your family's new washing machine to display "Please insert coin" and then be sad about the fact that it doesn't have an ethernet connection.

when you look out the window and comments about how much snow that there's outside.
And your GF tells you that it stopped snowing two days ago.

When you realize that you just read 15 pages of "you know your're using the computer too much when" statements and you think about adding that to the board while waiting for the page to load and when the page does load it has the EXACT post that you were just thinking about posting.

LOL no bullchit, this just happened to me!

..when a friend/rival tells about his windows laptop, you reccomend linux, he tells you linux sucks, and you stand up right and class and start telling all the reasons linux is better then windows..

a few more...

*when you dream in text (happened to me when i was playing too much MUD)

*when you go to a movie and are the only one laughing when a joke is made about how microsoft just released the new windows with plenty of bugs that will have people "upgrading for years to come"

...When you parents tell you its time to eat, and you reply "Let Me Finish This Post On Linuxquestions.org"

Yeah, I laugh at all the computer jokes that people go, "nerd" and stuff. My damned uncle called me a nerd when he saw my shirt that said "Theres no place like 127.0.0.1"

I have been called a nerd many times I go "Correction, its Geek"

When it's freezing outside you automatically think of your Windows OS.

When you find anything slightly amusing you say LOL

...When you start carrying around a Joy Of Linux book
