These are the symptoms of a serious disease. It's Backstreetitis. There is no cure for it yet, but do you really want it?
 

1- Your third cousin's new wife knows all of the BSB's names, and what instraments they play just by meeting you once.

2- Your friends buy you magazines, posters, excetera just to shut you up when you go to the mall.

3- When you call the radio station, they say, "Allright. Is it As Long As You Love Me, Quit Playin' Games, Everybody, or I'll Never Break Your Heart this time?"

4- The teachers refer to your locker as "The Backstreet Boys Shrine."

5- Your not-so-close friend can now sing songs by the BSBs that aren't even realeased in the USA yet.

6- You make up useless ways to interpret school to BSB (aka, on ABCD tests A- AJ, B- Brian, C-Carter (Nick), and D- Howie D {sorry Kev fans})

7- You refer to AJ, Kevin, Brian, Howie, and/or Nick as either "My boy," or "My guys."

8- If you miss a BSB TV appearance you flip out, and bribe the TV station to send you a copy (who cares if your friend has it, you want it NOW)

9- You start talking to the person beside you at their concert who you don't even know, about your wedding plans with them.

10- You have their hotline on speeddial.

11- You bought Edward Sissorhands just to see the part with Nick in it (and yes- he's in it).

12-Your brother knows their whole songs and dance routines by heart even though he hates the BSB!!!

13- Your school had to buy bulletproof glass because the last time you heard "As Long As You Love Me" on the radio you screamed so loud you broke the other glass

14- You find no shame in stopping during typing class when the radio is on and celebrating "Everybody" coming up by dancing on the table

15- You enter a contest (where it is marked clearly only 1 per person) 56 times. Who said you couldn't enter your dog, cat, sea monkeys, and your busfull of imaginary friends?

16- You go to Hotmail, USA.net or somewhere else to get an E-mail addie that has BSB in it

17- You build a website on them, to share your love and not overload your bookmarks by putting up a links page

18- You have convinced yourself and your friends that Brian, Kevin, Nick, AJ, and/or Howie actually live in your closet

19- You've dreamed about them for at least one week straight

20- You've written a story about you and them that's over 100 pages long, and you're nowhere near finished

21- You've named at least one of your pets after them

22- You can convince your friend who loves BSB as almost much as you do to give you a picture of your boy or the whole group

23- You hold funerals for torn-up, or messed up pictures of the BSB- and cry.

24- You write your congressmen and ask them to denote Backstreet Boys Day as a national holiday, and to let kids off school.

25- You stop by the local pound every day just to make sure that Tyke isn't there.
