I thought I'd start it up (this is a continuation of Ryan's that began in
his nuku.txt story) on the list:
You Know You've Been Watching Too Much SWAT Kats When . . .
You write fanfiction on your TI-83 Graphing Calculator that can literally
type out things, even though you know you have to type every letter
seperately and the story can never leave the memory of your calculator.
You flunked out of AlgebraII/Trig/Honors and moved into regular 'cause you
spent too much time thinking about SKs and not enough paying attention to
get good grades
The ex-producers know you by name
The ex-producers call you
The ex-producers yell at you for quoting them too often on the newgroups
and getting them in trouble (H-B scans the newsgroups, people)
The ex-producers think you are over-obsessed with SKs
You know how many different countries SKs airs in
You vocalize your love of SKs so much your friend who happens to catch it
in Israel and isn't a fan watches it just so he can call you when he gets
home and tell you what episode he saw
You know SWAT Kats is not spelled Swatkats
You know when SWAT Kats airs on teh Cartoon Network, even though you don't
get it
You know what episode this week aired on TCN, even though you don't get it
You consider buying a satellite dish just so you can get TCN 'cause your
own cable company doesn't carry it, even though you all ready have every
episode on tape
Your fanfiction plays out in your dreams
Other people's fanfiction plays out in your dreams
You watch the new, sucky episodes of TMNT just to hear that whiny version
of Razor
You go to the NYC Museum of TV and Radio and call into up an olf Jack
Benny episode from their archives, just so you can see what Barry Gordon
looks like because he was in that episode
You watch the episode, and realize he has a silent role so you can't hear
his voice, and complain to the museum staff that you want to hear Razor's
voice coming out of the mouth of a short, stubby, bald and fat guy
You have all of the Midnight Magics (edited and un-edited) in your SK hard
drive folder, and you even think you get some of them (sorry Ryan!)
You convinced Davis Doi to send you the Carl Jr's figures because they
simply don't have Carl Jrs on your side of the country (and it isn't kosher
anyway)
You personalize all your characters in your fanfic to your own religion
You wonder if Jake keeps kosher
You watch "Tiny Toons" in disbelief that that's Charlie Adler's voice
You do the same with the Star Wars movies and Mark Hamill
*All* your friends know everything there is to know about SKs, and they've
never seen the show
Everyone else in your family can spell SWAT Kats correctly, because you
won't tolerate mistakes, and they've never seen the show
You write fanfiction about a character who showed up 3 times or less on
the whole series
You write crossover fanfiction
You fanfiction (put together) is over 400 Kb
Anyone want to add more?
