I smile when I walk into Lowe's and see ads and banners for Valspar.

I yelled "comms" once at a family gathering.

My whole political value system has been heavily influenced by EvE and the lengthy shiptosting we do on the forums.

When you spend more time in forum than in game.

You know you played too much Eve when you are Skyping to coalition directors in your workplace and you meet coalition executors in the local bar after work hours to discuss alliances and planning wars.

Alternatively, you are actually having phone-calls with potential victims of your Eve Online scams.

And you are putting yourself forth as a CSM candidate.

And making video guides.

And you have so much ISK you are struggling to spend them all. Even after accounting for all those Titans you lost in fiery explosions.

My kids understand what "fc wat do" means.

Eve is like an addiction; you can't quit it until it quits you. Also, iderno

During taser recertification training, I noticed that the academy has a new light up mannequin/target that also makes a buzzing sound when the prongs hit.

Every Time the prongs hit and that thing lights up and buzzes I have to actually stifle the urge to yell "POINT".

When you think of gardening as planetary interaction.
When you stop doing some chore to test a fit you thought of to see if it's under the CPU requirements.
When you remember when people OFTEN referred to ISK as gold in their forum posts.
You realize there hasn't really been an original forum post in years. (I'm not knocking this or any post, just I've seen all of these before).

You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose but you can't pick your friends nose. Unless you podded them...and collected their corpse.

I was driving home from work, stopped at a stop light and I noticed the care in front of me had a license plate that started with "CCP". I watched the car for a few block just to see if it would actually try to nerf something.

Better dying than dead. Everything else is technically dying too.

This post brought to you by CCP's alpha forum alt initiative. Playing the eve forums has never come cheaper.

When someone asks you how long you've played Eve and the answer actually stuns you too for a moment.

"Tomahawks?"

"----in' A, right?"

"Trouble is, those things cost like a million and a half each."

"----, you pay me half that and I'll hump in some c4 and blow the ---- out of it my own damn self."
