You get a friend who doesn't play 40k (and is convinced he never will or he will take a cyanide pill) to unconsciously make a reference to the game that is out of context but completely relevant:

My roommate had a biology test, and when asked if he was ready he responded "death or glory." He feels so bad about it.

This happened to me the other day, it was great.

Me and my friends were playing Halo Reach headhunter mode, and my friend has 10 skulls (If you have 10 skulls and get to the "base", you win the game) so he makes a sprint across the map screaming "SKULLS FOR THE SKUL THRONE!". Mind you, he makes fun of me alot for 40k. It was hilarious when he said it though.

Also, you know you play too much 40k when you brag to your girlfriend about your army/minature painting abilities, only to realize a minute later she has no idea what your talking about.

Also, you know you play too much 40k when you do what I said above, but she DOES know what your talking about.

Also, you know you play too much 40k when your girlfriend asks you to tell you a story and you tell her the story of the Battle for Macargge.

All these things have happened to me. Guilty as charged.

Slightly related though not to warhammer, whenever my roommate and I are asked to tell a story (usually about something that happened, but that isn't explicitly specified) we tell the story of the ugly barnacle.

You know you play too much 40k when you're at a celtic fair and you instantly think "Someone call the Grey Knights" when you see a druidic cult stall selling spell books and strange rune carvings. Guilty, and two stalls down from that one they were selling very large and expensive metal warhammers. I can't begin to tell you how tempting it was to re-tool it as a thunder hammer and go crashing through the shop.

Also, when someone complains of their ipod/phone/portable mechanical device not functioning, you calmly tell them to light some incense and whisper in binary to the machine spirit to make it happy again.

When you refer to any assortment of scattered pieces as "bitz & gubbins"

When you call the old Russian project of anti-tank dogs "The Failed bomb squig project"

When you see cheese at the store and think "Imperial Fists"

When you forever think of the Vietnam War as "Catachan vs. orks"

When you realize each year of high school for you is marked by a milestone moment that is easily attributed to each of the chaos gods

When you begin using "Because The Emperor says so" as a default in arguments

When you begin dividing Earth's countries and alliances into 40k races

When you think Leman Russ might have been a good wingman at the clubs

Guilty of all of the above

You're playing dodgeballe with your friends and you have to roll a D6 to see if you hit.

Gods? There are no gods. Merely existences, obstacles to overcome.

When you ask for any ether-net cables that would be thrown out of your work (tech support) because you will probably use them in some future modeling project, which hasn't even been visualized yet.
