You're driving through really dense morning fog and thinking, "Huh, this plane clipping is just HORRIBLE... I wonder if I just entered Silent Hill..."

You have conversations with your boyfriend about how he does not look like a Rancor, and even if he was you wouldn't let any Jedi kill him.

I worked an Indiana Jones reference into a conversation about tikka masala; I don't even remember how. And then my aunt looked at me with bewilderment and I said, "yeah, I just +1 geeked this conversation, didn't I."

A friend of mine uploaded a picture of herself onto facebook; in the picture, she falls victim to the "red-eye" effect. So I left a comment accusing her of being a Replicant.

-You've spent 3-4 hours on a Sunday afternoon taking motion capture footage with a friend's homemade setup including a local gymnasium, a big mirror supported by an elaborate arrangement of tripods, incandescent lamps, floor tape for marking, a digital camera on another tripod hooked up to a TV's video in, and assorted other Macguyvered gadgetry... So you could try to get new combat animations into a video game. And you still have to finish learning to animate.
-You read the Journal of Arachnology.
-You write fanfic. For video games.
-You regale your siblings with quotes from Morrowind and Oblivion, doing your best impression of the Dunmer and Orcish voices.
"Pass the milk."
"I feel I can TRULY SHARE with you!"
"How about the butter?"
"Let's not make this official, Outlander. Move along."
-You know the difference between scorpions, pseudoscorpions, and sunspiders, and you can tell what sex spiders are without a microscope.
-You've read not just the LOTR trilogy and the Hobbit, but also the Silmarillion.
-One of your few criticisms of the movie Reanimator is that it's "not very much like the original Lovecraft stories."
-You can't find your car keys, but you can instantly say where the one reference to the Blue Sun is in Serenity - AND you're excited when you discover that in one episode of the show, Jayne wears a shirt with the same logo.
-You laugh at chemistry jokes.

You write for a site called Mutant Reviewers from Hell.
For free.
And you're proud of the fact.

True story:
A couple of years ago I was talking to a boy, about ten years old. He was bemoaning the fact that he had homework, and that the homework in question was a 500 word essay. He looked up (way up!) at me, with sincere pain in his eyes, and asked "I mean, do you know what it's LIKE to write a 500 word essay?".
I thought about it, sighed, and said "I do it for fun".

Whenever you pick up a dictionary, you feel an urge to leaf through the whole thing and count all of the palindromes. (I really like palindromes....)
In high school you tried to convince the PE teacher that marching band counts as a sport.
If you ever cut school, especially on a Friday, it was probably because a new Star Wars/Harry Potter/LotR/super hero/etc. movie premiered at midnight the previous night. And you probably dressed up for it.
You're favorite bands/musical artists include They Might Be Giants, Weird Al, The Polysics, The Living End, and Antonio Vivaldi.

You not only take a Latin class, but you enjoy it more than any of your other (practical) classes.
