When you own every codex, especially if you have multiple from past editions.

You look through old Rule Books and Codexs, sigh and say "oh those were the days"

You try to determine to S and AP of Paintball guns, let alone real ones.

You get Tatoos and Piercings with the idea that you would make one BAMF Noise Marine.

When you refer to working out as "The Practice Cage".

You think Horus actually had a good idea, with good intentions. (i know I do)

You pray for GW to come out with a 40k MMORPG.

They ARE making a 40K MMORPG.

When you google "Latin Translators" , for no other purpose than to come up with battle cries and chapter mottos for your imperial forces

(Sorry, Ensis Ferrae, I don't speak Latin )

lol, i took latin class long before i had ever even HEARD of 40k


you know you've taken 40k too far, when you've purchased approx. 4000 points worth of marine kit...assembled about 50 points of that... and never played a single game (guilty... bought a crap ton of marines, and only had 18 days of midtour leave from iraq in which i assembled/started painting a few)

You have my sympathies.

Your hot girlfriend, who plays SoB, and decides to indulge in your fantasy on your birthday. This involves paintinr herself green and wearing a bikini, and telling you shes Shadowsun. She does not realize that Shadowsun is blue-grey, and doesn't wear a bikin. You are happy an way cause it's your She-Hulk fantasy.(You know you had ONE!)

When you're sitting in the lobby of a Courthouse, reading this on your cellphone !

When you're listening to the news of the Woolworths chain's demise and hope GW buys it out ( Imagine a GW store with THAT much floorspace in YOUR town ! Tell me it's not an inviting thought, I dare ya )

You name one of your special characters after your dad and brother.

You name one of you special characters after a card in Magic The Gathering, in whichcase you need to stop playing both for a while.

Yo name your Libarian Sarkhan Vol, Tezzeret, Jace Beleran, or any planes walker from majic. Stop playing alll games for 3 months to purge from system!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You toy with ramming your wife's car calculating probabilities...

you wonder who would win in a first encounter scenario....space marines, or captain kirk

when you walk to the bathroom, and have the random idea to write a piece of fluff set in the LOTR universe... and promptly have your DIY chapter of space marines rescue the "squats" from the heretic with the "artefact from the dark age of technology"... of course, they enter the whole story by drop pod

When you're willing to take out the trash as your chore, just so that you can rumage through the "good bits" for terrain.

When you can spell out 'For the Emperor' on a calculator. Not easy I can tell you

you start playing Warmachine...

Both of these happened to me:

When you dream your an Imperial guard and freak out till the Space Marines show up

You work on a model for a painting contest tomorrow instead of going to bed...with your girlfriend.

That is not that bad I have dreams of being a guardsmen all the time.

You Dream of being a SM Salamander when still in the planning stages of building the army.

You are now going screw me, I need to go back to dreaming about other stuff.

You actually hope that Earth is a lost colony from Terra, and desparatly hope to be discovered cause even if your bad with machines you know more than the Grand Magos of the mechanicus, even thoughh you can't figureout how to clear your google history.

This reminds me of a quote I heard one time: "The hardest thing about a zombie apocalypse would be pretending I'm not excited."

You have to stop yourself from preemptively buying an army for an upcoming codex you know nothing about. (guilty, guardsmen)
