-You know watch too much Beast Wars when you get angry you scream "Maximize!" or "Terrorize!" before leaping upon the person/thing that made you angry and beating the slag out of them.

-You know watch too much Beast Wars when your home is on fire and you insist it's under attack by the Predacons saying "I Am a Warrior... Let the Battle Be Joined" before leaping into the flames to fight off the enemy.

You know you've watched Beast Wars too much when:

- You take kendo lessons in order to be more like a samurai, and thus closer to being Dinobot.

- You start to call your backstabbing colleague "That treacherous arachnid".

- You pick your online handle and passwords from Beast Wars. Ahem...

- You start naming your children after the characters.

- You begin to wonder which of your friends would suit one of the characters, in order to do a cosplay at the next convention.

- You systematically buy Beast Wars stuff for your friends' birthdays, so that you'll manage to share your madness... err, passion with all of them.

- You get into a sticky situation, stop for a moment and think, "Now, what would Rattrap do?"

- You refuse to even talk about that harlot Airazor because she stole Tigatron away and he belongs to you darn it! ... Ummmmmm, ahem. (That's not really my writing there... I'm more of a Beast Wars Neo Longrack and/or Beast Wars II Scuba type girl... thank Primus they don't have girlfriends yet... :wink: But well, OK, the only ones whose girlfriends I'd like to be are Victory Blacker or Greatshot.. they're just my type... serious... quiet... the other's a lone wolf...).

When you're jealous of Blackarachnia for having Silverbolt.
There's more to that than meets the eye.

How about

You know you're a Beast Wars fan when --->

You buy VCDs of the series, to have them in the clearest picture possible, even though they have four audio tracks running at the same time (English, Japanese, and two Chinese) along with Chinese Subtitles. The only way to understand it is play them on quadrophonic speakers, and unplug three of them?

That was before the videos came out :-)

You get upset at something you say "for bottin' up cold". I find myself doing that ALLOT lately.

You use the word slag as a substitute for most curse words.

When you go out and by cork board to put in your window of you toy room to block out the sun thus saving your BW toys from sun damage.

When you download the entire series in RealPlayer format and re-watch them while you are work (and in this case while I am typing this. equal measures if anyone is curious)

I find that when i say yes that is seems to drag on more then it used to.

When you are re-watching the DVDs even tho you are still watching it on your computer at work (going to watch Bad Spark tonight, one of my fav episodes).

When you play an online game, like Heavy Metal War on Seibetron.com and start divding your Autobots up into Maximals.

You know you are a Beast Wars fan when:

while watching movies that are outside of Beast Wars (The Matrix; Sahara; V for Vendetta; X-Men 3; ect;) you picture Beast Wars characters as several people in the movie you're watching.

While watching the new King Kong movie you imagine Megatron and Primal fighting during the big ape/t-rex battle on the island.

LOL I did that!

You know you're obsessed with BW when you spend a fortune going to several conventions to promote the show, and then buy BW stuff as well! X_x

You mean BW is in Chinese? How did you get the Chinese version? I want to see BW in Chinese!

Re: King Kong - yup. Did you see the King Kong bookends which someone photoshoped into Megs and Primal?

Chinese BW - it's just Series 1 on VCD - I can't remember where I got them from now. I think they were eventually confirmed as "fake" sets (like the fake Anime you get from Hong Kong), though I can't remember.

Shame, cuz I couldn't find anything BW-related in Beijing.

I know I'm a BW fan when I meet another Dinobot fangirl in my dreams

When I'm browsing BW fanart in a dream

You know you're a Beast Wars fan when you search the web for fan fics you haven't read... and start to believe that there aren't any...

When you have a perfect idea for a fan fic, but your inability to finish any writing project stops you cold.

When you use your favorite quotes from the show in everyday conversation.

When you attempt to make a heroic speech like Optimus or Silverbolt and still try to retain some form of respect.

When you want to kill (slowly) the person who scrapped the idea for the episode where Rattrap tries to restore Dinobot II's memories.

It depends on the personality. Remember all though they have the same goals in mind, many Megatrons have a different personality than the ones prior to the that character:

i.e. G1 megs goes insane after becoming Galvatron; RID Megs was already crazy; Armada and Energon were more criminally strategical and Beast Wars Megs was more elegant, more cunning. ect. Although it's still confuzing how you phrased it Lethal.

Back on topic:

You know you're a Beast Wars fan when you ride home on your bike replaying an episode from the series out loud.
