You Know You're a Star Wars Freak When....

 

You can recite *all* the dialogue from the trilogy.

You watch the entire trilogy at least once a month.

Your Internet handle or signature refers to Star Wars .

You have a pet or child named after one of the characters.

A SW *.wav file plays on your computer whenever you do a windows application.

Any time you pick up a walkie-talkie or two-way radio, the first thing you say is "TK-421, why aren't you at your post?."

Whenever you go anywhere outside with your friends, you always walk single file, to hide your numbers.

You've written several letters to the President recommending that he dissolve the council, put power in the hands of the regional governors, and let fear keep the local systems in line.

When you missed the last Cheerio in the bowl you remarked, "the Force is strong with this one."

You've told the mall Christmas elf, "You will take me to Santa NOW!" And follow up with, "You serve your master well!"

You sat on Santa's lap and petitioned for the release of Captain Solo. He informed you your Jedi mind tricks wouldn't work on him. You gave him one last chance. You told him it would be the last mistake he ever made. It wasn't. You didn't get Captain Solo for Christmas.

You've been pulled over by a policeman and when asked to see your drivers license you replied, "You don't need to see my identification."

You have physically threatened anyone who referred to "Hans Solo" or "Dark Vader", confused Star Wars with Star Trek, or spellied Wookiee with only one "e."

You have held up an onion ring and said, "Look sir...droids!"

You insist on spelling Pizza Hut "Pizza Hutt."

You frequently experience insomnia and, to counter this, begin counting nerfs.

You know what a nerf is.

You answer the phone with "Die wanna wanga?"

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!"

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 announce to the crowd "I am a Jedi, like my father before me."

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.

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."

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've 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 pretended the orange in your lunchbox was a thermal detonator, and thought about using it to get a better price at the milk counter.

You've 'wielded' a flashlight and made humming sounds.

You wave your hand purposefully and 'use the force' to open and close automatic doors or elevator doors.

You try to use the force to reach out of reach items, and someone sees you and then hands you the item. (For those of you who didn't get it...it's a Jedi mind trick)

You walk into an optometrist's office and shout: "You will PAY for your lack of vision!"

When sleepless or bored, you begin playing back the trilogy in your mind. 100% accurately.

When someone you don't like enters your house, you point at them and say "We don't serve their kind here!"

You refer to the first Star Wars movie as "A New Hope".

You're waiting at a bus for about an hour and when the bus finally comes you yell, "What's that? A transport! I'm saved! OVER HEEERE!!!! HEY!! HEY!! HEELP!! PLEEASE HELP!!"

Your significant other dumps you because everytime she/he says, "I love you" you always respond, "I know."

You cut off your Dad's hand and tell him that there is still good in him.

You use a quote from the trilogy at work and nobody else aroundyou gets it.

Your computer says "Please don't deactivate me" in the voice of Threepio before it shuts down. You include "May the Force be with you." in every news article, e-mail, or letter you write.

You know the difference between a rancor, a wampa, a taun-taun and a sarlacc.

When leaving a restaurant, you can't resist signing Boba Fett or Darth Vader in the guestbook. (Or a web Guestbook.)

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.
