When you start the 12464513879344th USA vs Canada thread.

When you get a cold sweat everytime you see the Flash Gorden movie.

When you get smilies from other sites to use in your post.

When you post replys for hours in the same thread, and you see your name as the last one who replied for 20+ threads. (done that!)
