While sitting on the couch with your girlfriend, she comments about being cold. So, naturally, you slice open the side of the cushion and stuff her in. When you insist on telling the cashier you're a collector when getting your weekly hit of SW toys. You bought kids meals at Taco Bell just to get all of the toys. (Anybody have a spare Darth/Yoda cube?) You insist on spelling Pizza Hut "Pizza Hutt." You bought a pizza from Pizza Hutt to get the coloring box but decided to leave the pizza intact in the box because it might be worth something someday. You met your girlfriend (boy/friend) through Star Wars. You dropped your religion and now live the way Yoda taught you. You recorded all the new Star Wars comercials. You think any of these are funny. You still laugh at all the subtle humor in the trilogy. You pray each night that Lucas won;t screw up the trilogy. You put down that you are a Star Wars fan on applications hoping to get the upper edge. You frequently experience insomnia and, to counter this, begin counting nerfs. You know what a nerf is. You answer the phone "Die wanna wanga?" Whenever you buy a new appliance, you make sure to get one that speaks Bacchi. When asked to do the dishes or some other chore, you reluctantly agree after whining "But I was going to go to Taschi Station to pick up some power convertors!" When you go go on an amusement park ride where you ride back to back, you call your friend Dak and tell him/her to stop whining about their approach vector. You have your own custom made Jedi robes and you wear them out. If someone confuses you with a Monk, you grab a stick and beat them senseless. When done, you stand break the stick over your knee and anounce to the crowd "I am a Jedi, like my father before me." You often greet old friends by scaring the daylights out of them, calling them losers, then proceding to hit on their girlfriends. You tried to freeze your POTF2 Luke Skywalker in your parents' freezer, but not before testing it on Captain Solo. You wonder why no one else was invited to the Lars family barbecue. You call your aunt and uncle Aunt Beru and Uncle Owen. Whenever you catch sight of cars behind yours, you say "Fighters, coming in, point three five." Someone else in your car says "What about that tower?" You respond, "You worry about those fighters, I'll worry about the tower", and moments later your car slams into the water tower the passenger was referring to As everyone starts a tough exam, you look it over, tell yourself "Do or do not, there is no try." You, deciding this falls into the "do not" category, you write your name and turn it in blank. When a cop catches you speeding, you floor it, saying "I've outrun Imperial starships, and not the local bulk cruisers..." When you discover that you CAN'T outrun the police car, you calmly comment "I know a few maneuvers. We'll lose them." After a long chase, the cop decides to shoot out one of your tires to slow you down. You tell the passengers "I've lost my starboard engine" When you finally are stopped by the policeman, you try to use mind control: "This isn't the car you're looking for. You don't need to see my driver's license. I can just move along now." He finds that this sort of thing has happened three or more times before. When someone apologizes to you, you choke him and tell him that you accept his apology. You ride a Harley Davidson through the forest at top speed, and survive after throwing yourself off just before it hits a tree. You get up after a long, long sleep and start mumbling anxiously, "Where am I? I can't see!" When nobody else is around, you've seriously tried to draw something into your hand with the Force. When riding your bike, you accelerate wildly by checking behind you, then pressing down with your right toe. You tried to ride as fast as you could through the forest on your bike, looked back to check on your companion and crashed headlong into a tree. You've ever wondered whether Carrie Fisher had someone who warmed up her brass bikini in a toaster oven on cold mornings during the filming of ROTJ. You've ever pretended the orange in your lunchbox was a thermal detonator, and thought about using it to get a better price at the milk counter. ________________________________________________________________________________ From: Erin Fencil Subject: Re: You might be a Star Wars addict if...

You know the rules, and have actually played the game. You won your car in the game, and made A lot of special modifications yourself.

When they insist on your telling them who you are and what number they dialed, you stammer "uhh... uhh..." and shoot the phone.
