You Know You've been on AJB too much when...

1) You learn Hungarian to communicate with your cat.

2) You also believe your cat can supply you with tidbits from scores and cast lists for Bond movies.

3) When you see in the news anything about the NSA you think "What's JFF up to this time?" and when you watch DAD you think "So Jinx likes AVTAK?"

4) When your friends are talking about something other than Bond you say "So you're going to go off-topic now?"

5) When the Moonraker shuttles are casting off, you look for M5's avatar on Drax's shuttle.

Anyone else have any morsels for this topic?

    You start bringing up your post count in every day conversation. ("So how was your day?" "2970.")

    Also, I now refer to each of the Bond films by their intitals and I can not go a day without checking up on this site.

    I was only joking about the post count. ;) I don't actually bring up my post count in every day conversation. :D

    I know I've been on AJB too much......

    When I've been to the toilet before I've reached the toilet.

    When I laugh at Loeffelholz's jokes. :D

    Topic-killing was a favourite past-time of mine. When I was here more regularly almost every topic I'd post in suddenly died.

    I'm sure there's a lesson in there somewhere, although I am not sure what it is...

    I was on the giving AND receiving end of those! Good one Blueman.

    1. You start referring to your friends with initials.

    But yeah, in my early days, I killed many a topic. About 46 to be exact. I'm counting AVTAK Obsessions because even though I didn't post last, I did myself in there.

    How about, you know you've not been on AJB long enough that you post an Off Topic thread in the wrong forum? ;)

    You want to spearhead a telethon in behalf of JFF because you develop apathy for his AVTAK ravings... :s

    This topic reads like a MAD magazine article.

    When you start seeing the AJB screen in your dreams.

    When a part of this diverse world is brought up in the news, and you're reminded of a certain member or friend you've made here.

    When even JFF's silly AVTAK ravings don't bother you anymore. :p

    You know you've been on AJB too much... when whilst seeing a film (Juno) you notice that one of the executive producers is Joe Drake, and you think that it must be fellow AJB member John Drake's brother. :))

    Oh, and also when you remember threads like this which has been dead for more than a year. :p

    You know you've been on AJB too much when you see a topic and know it's going to be closed, before it's closed.
    Some people would complain even if you hang them with a new rope
