You start buying DVDs of the actors in other series to help you make it through the summer. I actually bought the first season of Hetty Wainthrop ( a kind of British version of 'Murder She Wrote which starred our own Dom) pre-ordered the secon season.... and I am seriously considering buying Party of Five.... :lol2:

I've got already got Terry on some Episodes of West Wing... :laugh:

you are going to paint the small model airplane you found to have the oceanic airlines symbol....b/c you are just that kool :P

When you want to use the numbers for the lottery but can't buy a ticket. :lol2:

^ i actually DID use the Numbers in a powerball drawing....my parents bought the ticket of course :P but I gave them the Numbers...

you realize you're carrying your camera around with you just to take pictures of numbers

You buy a survival kit

Pack extra deodorant, aspirin, cigarettes (you don't smoke but its good for trade) - on your next few plane rides, just in case something might happen...you basically pack anything that might come in handy for survival

you passed Gate 23 in an airport....saw a wheelchair sitting by the door...and FLIPPED OUT (true story)

The stray dog has puppies and you name them after the Lostaways

you passed Gate 23 in an airport....saw a wheelchair sitting by the door...and FLIPPED OUT (true story)


:o Thats a bit freaky...and extremely ironic. Time to pull out the camera!
The stray dog has puppies and you name them after the Lostaways

Done and done...well except it was my dog and she only had 7 so we have to wait until the next litter to finish the batch. You know you've done a good job when the puppies owners start watching Lost and the scrapbook for each individual pup has a couple of Lost pictures.

:o Thats a bit freaky...and extremely ironic. Time to pull out the camera!


i wanted to....but it was packed

::hits self for packing camera::

when you hear a "lost appropriate" song and think about cutting a fan video to it

Mo....tsk tsk tsk :no2: that's why you have to carry a point and shoot at ALL times

Mo....tsk tsk tsk :no2: that's why you have to carry a point and shoot at ALL times


well i have learned my lesson!

:lol2: as long as you learnt

You are watching the reruns on Wed. nights even though you have them all on tape and have seen them all so many times you can recite the lines with the actors. Sad but true.

^ true, but not sad :)

i wanted to....but it was packed
Thats when you start shoving people off, and if security tells you that you can't do that...tell them exactly what Locke tells everyone else.

You feel like if you don't watch the reruns you are betraying some sacred commitment between you and the show.

Very true Leigh, it would feel like a betrayal to watch something else when LOST is on.

You dream you are on the "Black Rock" in the middle of the ocean and are now one of the Lostaways. 8)

you pause POTC halfway through of your scenes to watch the rerun of Walkabout....and then yelled at the TV when there were no promos for the next eppy....

when you hear a "lost appropriate" song and think about cutting a fan video to it


^Just need to learn how to do that...having trouble viewing one to see an example.

*When you hear a "lost appropriate" song and listen to it, along with viewing screencaptures and start to cry horribly. Ex: Listening to Mandy Moore's 'Only Hope' while screen thru the end of 1x11 - where they discover Charlie and try to revive him. Then listen to Evanescence's 'My Immortal' whiling looking at some Boone/Shannon shared pictures.

^ you're missing some EXCELLENT videos at that site..... :(

May I enquire what sites those may be?? I've been to a couple *couldn't list them for you* some didn't work with my computer.

the best one is http://www.lostvideo.net
i don't really know of others, but most of those posting are 'lagers too

Thanks. I'll try that site.

you surf any LOST site on the web that you can find to get you through summer withdrawls.

you search every INCH of oceanic-air.com hoping to find something that has been missed....

You catch a moth and name it Charlie.

Anytime you see a moth you automatically think about 'The Moth' episode....and watch as it flies higher and higher into the sky, free and strong.

When your 6 yr old brother comes over to you while on the internet and asks, "Is that Lost?" and your answer is "yes."

True story and it happened today.

My 7 year old son asks, "mommy what are you doing?'"Oh talking to people about Lost?"

When he sees a pic of Dominic Monaghan he says "Charlie!"

Aww that's cute stircrazy.

When the highlight of your day, is changing your Avie :-[ ;D It's good bad stuff

when your friend says "that would be a real boon to our project"
and you think "awwww...poor Boone will never be part of our project""

When the highlight of your day, is changing your Avie* *:-[* *;D* *It's good bad stuff


Cute avie. My daughter has a crush on Walt.

I found a few piks where he's a little cutie.

I asked someone to make me avie's of Walt, so hopefully Season 2 I actually have Walt Avies.

They are far and few between. :-\

When you secretly wish you could go to Hawaii and meet the cast but it only happens when your asleep at night. :P

When you can't leave to go out of town without your Entertainment Weekly magazine that features 5 of the men of Lost on the cover.

When you visit the Monterey, California aquarium and see the tidal pool sea animals and think of Jin trying to get Hurley to eat the seafood he prepared! (True story.)

you see that you are in seat 23C on your flight to CALIFORNIA and PRAY you crash on the Lost island :P (true story)

You are disappointed when you see that none of the seats you're sitting in on your flight have any of the Numbers. :'(

You explain to your brother exactly how, if certain things happen in a certain order, your plane CAN crash on a tropical island during a flight from New Jersey to Scotland.

you see that you are in seat 23C on your flight to CALIFORNIA and PRAY you crash on the Lost island :P (true story)


Something tells me you asked for that seat, MO! ;)

When you go to see your former High School's drama group's performance and there's a little girl and a little boy in the play, brother and sister and you think: "Oh look Boone and Shannon!"

(all my stories ARE true)

When your 6 yr old brother comes over to you while on the internet and asks, "Is that Lost?" and your answer is "yes."

True story and it happened today.



lmao, I can relate to that!! All I have to do is laugh and type wheni am sitting by the comp and my little bro is like, "U on the Fuselage again?" And he doesnt even watch Lost much! :lol2: :laugh: :lol2: :laugh:

Something tells me you asked for that seat, MO! ;)


i didn't! that's what the scary thing is... :P

Is that, then, like 6 Degrees of Lost? :lol2:

Is that, then, like 6 Degrees of Lost? :lol2:


YES! it's SOOO freaky!

YES! it's SOOO freaky!


Mole ... don't look now but I think the island is watching you! :lol2:

Mole, if your avi had sound, I think it would be Sha-Na-Na signing ... "Ohhh, llama, llama, ding dong!" :lol2: :lol2:

(It's late ... I'm tired! LOL)

Mole ... don't look now but I think the island is watching you! :lol2:

ooo...that just gave me an idea for a new avie....thank you... :P

You plan to have a baby daughter, and you want to name her Evangeline. :D

ooo...that just gave me an idea for a new avie....thank you... :P


Don't forget ... it's 10% for a finder's fee! ;)

When you are at six Flags with your family and your mother says she is going for water and you tell her not to go, it's not safe.. there are Monsters and Polar Bears AND she knows what you mean and laughs. :lol2:

Don't forget ... it's 10% for a finder's fee! ;)


a ten percent finder's f....OO LOOK OVER THERE! ::points then runs away::

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~

you change your telephone number to: 481-516-2342, for obvious reasons :P

When anytime you hunt Ebay for any DVD with Naveen Andrews your family starts the Sayid jokes

When you're driving on the freeway and you need directions your passenger finds that all the maps in your glove box are of an island and written in French!

a ten percent finder's f....OO LOOK OVER THERE! ::points then runs away::


That's okay ... I'll just add it on to your entrance fee to Lock Land. :lol2:

When your 7 year old son already said CHARLIE! when he saw Dominic Monaghan but now your 9 year old nephew is saying it too.

Gads I am an addict! I can relate to way too many of these things...getting family members hooked, crying over no Lost till next week, re-arranging my life to fit the Lost schedule....

Mine are...

Taking about half a roll of pictures of the old Xerox building where they film indoor/cave scenes, even though there isn't even any cast members outside. Also freaking out just because there are still random airplane bits and pieces visible form the road...we've also seen large rocks that looked like waterfall/cave parts...and I saw the boat outside long before the episode with it aired...so no wonder I'm always snapping pictures of that darn building!

Driving to the North Shore and taking pictures on the "Lost Beach" with Kaena Point in the background.

Wanting to eat at a certian North Shore Thai restaraunt every day just on the off chance the Terry will be eating there again.

Trying to think up ways to deliver an arrangement from the flower shop I work at to a cast member...this one borders on obsessive stalker behavior so I always tell myself No No NO..not nice! Then again, maybe they'd like getting flowers....or a yummy gift basket....

Oi! My list could go on and on...

When you start posting about the show before you've seen a single episode!!! :lol2:

Your very orderly mother-in-law is on the way over to babysit, and you keep reading this thread instead of picking up the house!!!

Gotta go get the worst of it, finally. :laugh:

When you get upset that your dad turns the channel right before Sawyer and Kate is about to kiss.

This happened on vacay btw.

When you throw a party because your husband (who has been avoiding LOST like the plague) agrees to sit down and watch the DVD with you.

:party: :bdaysmile: :bdaywink: :bdaybiggrin: :bdayfrown: :holiday: :biggringift: :hb2:

:jump:

When you break out in a cold sweat because you tried to log on to the Fuse and it was down for repairs!

How about when you book a trip to dive with Great White Sharks in Port Lincoln/Adelaide and you sitting in Sydney contemplating getting a work VISA to stay here because you love it so much!.....If you ever have th chance to travel here, do it. I'm from Philly, so it took me 6 hours just to get to LA, let alone the 14-15 trip from LA to Sydney.and connecting flights to Adelaide and Port Lincoln.......It's well worth it. This a beautiful country with beautiful, friendly people. I honestly feel like I'm home in the States right now. I'm so glad the Aussie's....like the Brits are friends of America. I've met the most interesting and welcoming/warm people here....They even helped me work on my "G'Day Mate" hahahahaha. seriously! My friend said I sound "so American" when I say it. hahahahaahahahahah!

So that's where you have been! I've been wondering about you. :laugh:

Were you nervous on the flight home? :D

Honestly, no, I'm not that nervous. This has been the best experience in my life.......not that I want t odie, but if that plane went down I'd be at peace......seriously............(thta's morbid, please pray I get home to my people in 1 pieces....love you guys,.....Hugh, "Clairbabydaddy, or CBD...Kat (Lirpa on the `Lage)....love ya, you're a true frined love...thanks for the Emilie picture you are sending! Too bad I've never net Em, I bet we'd have a lot of fun!

Yep, yep...I'm with Heba...about had a nervious break down over the site being down!!!!!!!!
The NERVE... :lol2:

Almost had a nervious break down also when I thought I'd have to spend another night in the hospital and there were no TV's on the ward and it was Wed!!! :lol2:
I started telling everyone HOW much better I felt! ha ha

The other thing I do is look up the the actors a lot, their history, and stuff...I can't seem to get enough of learning more about them...I just realized this week that Locke/Terry had a short run on Roswell, the 3rd season, he was in charge of the plant where Michael had his security guard job!

So that's where you have been! I've been wondering about you.* :laugh:

Were you nervous on the flight home?* :D


the bossman just said "take another week there if you want, I'm cool here".....so I'm not on my way home just yet!! hahahah :lol2:

When you throw a party because your husband (who has been avoiding LOST like the plague) agrees to sit down and watch the DVD with you.

That's okay ... I'll just add it on to your entrance fee to Lock Land. :lol2:


::joins abbykitty in woobieland:: :lol2:

You seriously jump up and down and freak out when the name Sayid is called in an airport. You then immediately start looking for the pregnant Australian chick and the guy in the wheelchair.

^^ Happened yesterday. It was especially funny because it was over the heads of EVERYONE because Lost hasn't aired there yet (I was in Scotland).

You spend every spare moment you have on the lage and start talking about the people here as if you've known them forever...

When your landlord calls you and asks if you smell smoke and the first thing that pops into your head is the scene of Danielle taking the group to the 'black smoke.' This is true ... happened to me yesterday. :lol2:

Guilty of making a little Lost Sim family ::)


Ha! Just read this. You mean as in The Sims....the game? If so, I SOOOO want these skins..... :D

Elfdream, I told my husband that your post made me so jealous...* And he agreed, too!!!!* Thank you!!!!

Glad I could help. :)

When you dream up episodes in your sleep and spend the next day thinking about it and growing restless for season two!

You start comparing your friends to characters in Lost...

Ha! Just read this. You mean as in The Sims....the game? If so, I SOOOO want these skins..... :D


I've been thinking of doing that! I have a ton of Sim families and I'm thinking of scrapping them all and building a whole LOST community.

When you dream up episodes in your sleep and spend the next day thinking about it and growing restless for season two!


that happened to me earlier this week! haha....


I've been thinking of doing that! I have a ton of Sim families and I'm thinking of scrapping them all and building a whole LOST community.


i have the Sim bodybuilder or whatever it's called, and i find it amusing to see how exactly i can create a Sim of each of the characters.....:P

.....wait, that sounds a little TOO weird ::looks around shiftily:: right....so i'll just...::quietly leaves room::

I've been thinking of doing that! I have a ton of Sim families and I'm thinking of scrapping them all and building a whole LOST community.

That would be soooo cool, especially in Ver 2 cause you could tweak them to be like the characters. Hmmm...now I think I'll be spending all day tommorow doing this......another sign I'm obsessed.... :P

When you are at six Flags with your family and your mother says she is going for water and you tell her not to go, it's not safe.. there are Monsters and Polar Bears AND she knows what you mean and laughs. :lol2:


OMG! I was just in Chicago with friends and did the same thing. We all laughed hysterically for a moment, then looked around to make sure no one thought we were crazy.

That would be soooo cool, especially in Ver 2 cause you could tweak them to be like the characters. Hmmm...now I think I'll be spending all day tommorow doing this......another sign I'm obsessed.... :P

That's so funny. My I have Harry Potter and Buffy the Vampire sims houses. Oh yeah, and Simpsons. I guess someone will have to get evicted. :p

You know you're obsessed with LOST when...

You go to sleep thinking (rather obessessing) about what is going on with The Island.

When you do finally manage to doze off you dream that your on The Island.

Not only do you dream about The Island, you figure out the secret, and try to wake yourself up so that you can write down what the secret is. (but of course fail to wake up)

You read EVERY single thing on the internet trying to figure out what the hell is going to happen. (but just more aggrivated)

You spend 3 hours on the Oceanic-Air website.

You stare off into space while your spouse is talking to you thinking about what Locke is going to do next.

You wonder, if Sayid and Locke got into a fight who would win?

:shifty: :crazy: :1eye: :crutch:

When your sons are playing with some of their toy dinosaurs, and one says, "Lets go find the others!" and your first instinct is to shout, "Noooooo!"

When your husband starts watching LOST and he casually asks, "What are the odds the flashlight would land on a hatch?" and you launch into a 10 minute summary of theories.:geek:

When you go over to the UK Lost website and watch them get all excited about seeing Season 1 for the first time and you get all excited along with them..and then you remember...you've already seen it. :p

when your friend refers to something or someone as a monster, and you counter...""Nah, it's just a security system."

You actually sit through Rollerball only to see Sayid

You have a countdown in your siggy for both the new season and the S1 DVD. :)

When you go over to the UK Lost website and watch them get all excited about seeing Season 1 for the first time and you get all excited along with them..and then you remember...you've already seen it. :p OMG! I was so excited going to that website! I was so happy for them and I love all the attention and buzz that is forming for them all! I can't wait to see what they say about the show!


Not only do you dream about The Island, you figure out the secret, and try to wake yourself up so that you can write down what the secret is. (but of course fail to wake up) I know I've uncovered the secrets...or...at least one secret...I remember Locke was in my dream once and he told me something very important.

...when you see a license plate that has '1523' and not '1623'. I actually saw the license plate of someone I know earlier this summer.

....when you are sitting on a beach, fall asleep, then wake up and think that you are on the Lost island...(true story, my mom thought i was delusional)

....when you've had a dream, not only about the show, but about being on the fuselage discussing the show!! (I swear, I spend too much time here! :) )

You freak out at the video store because you saw a poster for a movie that an actor from Lost is in (Bride & Prejudice).

You freak out at the video store because you saw a poster for a movie that an actor from Lost is in (Bride & Prejudice).


Just as guilty

...when you've broken into ABC studios to steal mementos...oops...did I say that? Damn...secrets out...

CQ: Did you say what? ;-)

You know you're obsessed w/ Lost when you keep calling your husband "Sawyer"....

You freak inside when you spot a near dead ringer of a favorite character(I'm sure I spotted a Sawyer tonight)

Although you already have two calenders you buy a third because of the Hawaiian beach scenes on it.

you make your parents stop in the middle of the road while driving so that you can take a picture of a place called "Sawyer's Market"....true story

When it starts to rain you have the sudden urge to either...
a) put your arms up, tilt your face towards the sky, and smile (a la Locke)
b) ask the person closest to you if they were taught how to predict the weather at a box company.

when you expect the security system to go off and start running.
:





undecide:

:smile:

ohwell

You know you're obsessed with Lost when:

You tell your friend that the reason her locker keeps on getting jammed is because she's next to locker #815.

...you actually DO go out when it is raining and assume the "Locke Position" (true story)

...you get tears in your eyes, start hyperventilating, and cannot speak or move when you see the season 2 promos...also true (i know, im psychotic)

You suffer through movies because someone from Lost is part of the cast(in my case Rollerball)

...you actually DO go out when it is raining and assume the "Locke Position" (true story)

...you get tears in your eyes, start hyperventilating, and cannot speak or move when you see the season 2 promos...also true (i know, im psychotic)




Actually you aren't cause I do the same thing for both things you said, Mo. :)

You HATE Entertainment reporting and Entertainments Shows but you watch them anyway because there might be a tiny mention of LOST or a quick mention of ANY cast member doing ANYTHING!:p

...your son calls to you to get out of the way of his bike and you reply, "No problem; I'm surprisingly spry."

...and you change the font on your word processing program to "Trebuchet".

...and you change the font on your word processing program to "Trebuchet".

You know you're obsessed with LOST when...you see this post and immediately try to find how to make your computer do this, too.

Technophobe, it is a choice on the font menu of my iMac AppleWorks program. That's about all the help I can give. Good luck!

Hey! I found it here, among the "Reply to Thread" choices. I think that Trebuchet should become the official posting font of The Fuselage!

YKYOWLW...

you have to tell all of your friends that you got a reply from Terry O'Quinn. Woo hoo! It was my first time trying. That made my weekend.

Hey! I found it here, among the "Reply to Thread" choices. I think that Trebuchet should become the official posting font of The Fuselage!

*Writes in snappy new "Trebuchet MS" font*

Coooool!! :biggrin: Many thanks nonnyd!

YKYOWLW...

You're watching a show about a cursed chair and YOU know why the chair is cursed - it's a chair from 1815.

An extremely obscure connection, I know, but all the more geeky, right?

hahaha a cursed chair? :lol:

You watch the commercials on ABC closely to see if a Lost commercial comes on.
You have a countdown on your calendar in your room showing how many more days Lost will be on. Including the S1 DVD.

Or like I was - trying to dry my hair whilst reading a LOST article in last weeks NOW magazine for the hundreth time!!!

when you buy a bunch of used airline parts on eBay, set up the broken fuselage in your backyard, start a campfire and sleep in the captain's chair - when the neighbors ask, just say 'no... situation normal here... why do you ask?'

have you really done that!? :eek: That's really funny.

You take your son and nephew to the park, they are playing in a stream hiding in the bushes and they say, "help we are on Lost!" Then they come running out screaming,"the monster is coming,the monster is coming!"

Hahahahaha...Thats hilarious stircrazy!

...you start going "OMG OMG OMG" about something and your friend (who you haven't seen all summer) says dryly "What Lost thing is happening now?"

Hahahahaha...Thats hilarious stircrazy!

:lol1:

YKYOWLW...

You write a poem about LOST. Your teacher sighs and shakes her head.

You add the word "juxtaposition" (or "Jackstaposition") to your everyday vocabulary.

...you come into school and everyone asks to see your Lost DVD even though you didn't tell them you got it, b/c that's all you talked about for like EVER...

You know you're really obsessed when you make an appointment with a medical specialist and find that his office is located in the "Rutherford" building! :) and you smile! :)

YKYOWLW...
...You write the word LOST on your binder from last year and make a point to use it this year just so people will look at it and know that you love LOST.
...You read all 63 pages of this thread(which i havent done yet but almost there) :)
...You spend your entire lunch talking about LOST with your friends.
... You go around telling everyone HURLEY TALKED TO ME!!! even if you dont know them.
... You make your friend leave the lunch table so you can talk about LOST b/c she had to tape the last episode and hasn't watched it yet.(no not me never::slips away guiltily::) not the whole time just 5 mins. i swear. :)

actually im guilty of all the above hehe..

LOL I am soooo guilty of alot of these!!!!
Jami

You change your screen saver to Lost-related pictures in honor of the season premier. And keep it for three weeks. :blush:

Who has a lost screen saver on their cell phone??? I DO!!!

I saw a review for an album caled "The Magic Numbers" by a band called "The Magic Numbers", and I thought, I need to get that. . .

you know you're obsessed when teachers (including th dean of students) hunt you down to not only talk to you about the show, but ask questions and sometimes even ask for the tape of the last eppy (b/c they KNOW you tape every eppy)...yeah

I saw a review for an album called "The Magic Numbers" by a band called "The Magic Numbers", and I thought, I need to get that. . .
That band has obviously watched Lost.....

I mean they named themselves "The Magic Numbers" and their biggest hit are "Forever Lost" and they resembles musically The Mama's and the Papa's, wich Mama Cass Elliot was a part of, and who's song "Make your own kind of music" was featured in episode 1 in season 2.

You know your a Lost addict when u want to hunt boars, and build a Trebuchet spelled with the font Trebuchet.

AND there are siblings in the band, just like Draftshaft!

creepy

;)

You know you're obsessed when, even though you are a happily married woman, you've developed an unhealthy attraction/obsession to the new character Ana-Lucia. ;)

Maybe it's because she completely embodies the "I Am Woman, Hear Me Roar" disposition and that is just too cool.

:thumbup1:

.... you've successfully "converted" you friend into a Lost fan. She just called me to catch up the past few episodes because 1. her dvd player died from watching all of the dvds she borrowd from me and 2. she missed the first two episodes. :lol: I think it's great and now I'm excited that I have another person to talk to Lost about. I have another friend but she doesn't love it as much as I do.

You know you are obsessed with Lost when you are tempted to challenge Lost_In_Louisiana to a duel over a female Lost character, even though you are 99% straight. :o

...you read the posts in threads like this one and don't think they're weird at all.;)

...the 'Lage is your homepage...
...You start using black backgrounds with white font and green border for your spreadsheets at work...
....you start signing all your emails as "post #"

The electricity goes off 30 minutes before "Adrift" airs and you aren't worried about no air conditioning or anything else but wondering if the electricity will be back on before it starts. When it isn't, you pout and for the next week you look at every photo posted on the episode on Lost Media, read every thread about it on the 'Lage and read the transcript for the episode on Lost TV. Yep! .... obsessed....

When you sit two inches away from the Tv to make sure that you don't miss a single thing and put the volume on full blast.
When you plan on having a Lost marathon with your friends.

You actually want to go to work on Thursday because you can't wait to talk about it with your co-workers.

...your friends threaten to kill you if you start talking about, or referring to Lost again...

You password at work is the numbers, you play the numbers in vegas, thefuselage is your homepage, you think about it and talk about it all day... you're opening to every conversation is "did you see lost?"

...you are saying/screaming the numbers while getting it on with your girl/boyfriend.

;)

...you are saying/screaming the numbers while getting it on with your girl/boyfriend.

OMG... That is TOO Great. Thanks for the laugh! Hmmm.... I wonder....

..you break your real glasses and melt two crappy ones together just to be more like Sawyer.

...when you refer to "getting dumped" as "killing a thread." Oh wait....that's obsessed with the 'lage.

....you write and discuss Lost-related poetry
....your math teacher asks for a copy of one of your poems b/c his WIFE liked it...yeah ;)

You actually play the numbers in Lotto

You tell your husband that you are going on the Fuselage, just to see what the lost nerds are talking about in attempt to ignore the fact that you are one of the lost nerds

When you hear the word fuselage or lost mentioned in a news story and you flip out.

When you look for the numbers on the back of Chinese fortune cookies.

When you look for the numbers on the back of Chinese fortune cookies.

:24:

...when you scan the news ticker at the bottom of your TV screen every morning to see if the lotto numbers for the day have any numbers in them... :p

When you name your first born HURLEY!

(Not that i did)

you check the lage 3 times a day and are annoyed when someone else is using the computer

When you're on the lage during classes and not paying any attention to what the teacher is saying.

:redface: :redface: when you're on the lage while your class is working and you aren't teaching!

You buy a shirt that says "Hurley" having no idea why it says "Hurley" you just care that it says "Hurley".

I am soooooooo guilty of alotof these if not most!!! I am always talking about Lost at work and alot of the customers and my fellow workers are watching!! LOL If they missed it they ask me what happened. My cousin, 8yr old daughter, and brother all are watching. I am converting more and more each day!! :rolleyes: :grin: Keep em coming! I am always here!

I wish I could get some of my friends hooked... but it doesn't seem to work whatever I do...
back to topic...


... you keep staring at the Lost commercials just in case there are clues in them

... when you start to speak and the person you are speaking to immediately holds up their hand and says, "If it's about Lost, I don't want to hear it." :frown:

Oh... that was a familiar scenario...

OMG - I haven't read all of them, only like the first 200 posts...

But...You know when you are obsessed with LOST when....

:nuts: You see over 600 posts on this thread and don't think there is anything wrong with that...LOL
:nuts:You are really upset that you are the only one in your family and within your immediate close friends that watches LOST, and no one will listen to you anymore about it and you think and wonder what is wrong with them....because obviously something has to be wrong with them if they won't even consider watching it.
:nuts:When everyone at your job dreads Thursday mornings because they know you will give them a synopsis, very thorough I might add, of last night's LOST episode...because even though they don't watch - you will make sure they know one way or the other. :evil:
:nuts:When you actually (and I just did this last night) play the lottery with the numbers and feel that it was meant to be cause the payout is at 15 million dollars ;)
:nuts:You are more conscious of the numbers in your everyday life. Like when it is 8:15 am or pm...doesn't matter.
:nuts:Being outside and wondering "What Would Locke Do"...and God forgive me, wonder if they should make up little bumper stickers like the ones they have for Jesus WWJD and make up ones for LOST fans...WWLD
:nuts:When one of your coworkers has a Netflix account and said coworker doesn't watch the show .... and she always keeps her Netflix account up on the screen minimized and you actually contemplate when she is away from her desk or at lunch to go and put LOST Season 1 disc 1 on the number one position on her movie queue.... :roflmao:
:nuts:When you keep this site minimized on your screen while you are at work all day and read and post during free moments....or shall I say forced free moments...LOL!

Those are just a few for now...I'm sure I'll come up with more. :rotflmao:

Edited to add a few more - LHS

when you think the above quote is the best thing you've ever read because it is SOO true

you want to play powerball and win $$$ using the magic numbers..........

When you realise that you have to go to class tomorrow morning at 8:15 and find that incredibly funny and start laughing out loud in class.

or when you sit and make up reasons for writing a paper about Lost in your 'music and identity' class

when you read this thread

You tell your mother that your 7 year old son's flight left at 8:15 and she says, "You let him go!!!"

If you'd just read all 670 posts on this thread, but don't feel that you suffer from any kind of mental illness.:biggrin:

The fact I actually talked my mother into using the numbers on a Lotto ticket!

if you say to yourself, I can hold on for the next episode, I can make it while standing in line at the grocery store

When the answer to your math prof's example is 108 and you consider not writing it down because it's evil. :smile:

When your parents' coworkers know that if they miss an episode, they can just ask you for the tape the next day (since they know you tape every episode). :biggrin:

You sit here all day because your daughter is with her aunt and your wife is out of town...when you could be golfing, sleeping, watching movies, enjoying the fall weather..etc... I must be insane...or not...I can't tell anymore..

You are on-line while your baby is asleep FINALLY and instead of sleeping after being up all night, you read about lost.

(When do babies sleep through the night because last night mine woke up ever HOUR!)

Breast fed or bottle fed? Breast fed babies need to eat more often. Bottle fed babies tend to sleep through the night sooner. I would say at least 6 months but every baby is different.

...you talk about breast feeding?

The little cutie in the picture took 11 months to sleep through the night...I feel your pain...

haha these are all so great! I don't know if these have been said, as I haven't browsed through all 68 pages....yet.

-you have dreams about the Lost characters.
-the word 'Lost' becomes your most overused word. 0:]
-the thought of Lost ending makes you really depressed, and becomes a forbidden thought.
-you incorporate things from Lost into your life like they are the most normal, realistic things out there. :D
-you try to push Lost onto people who don't watch it. [because they're crazy!]
-the person who introduced you to Lost is now saying how annoying you've become with your constant Lost talk. [my mom. hehe]
-people you see seem to resemble Lost characters.
-you hate waiting a weekfor a new episode, and when you have to wait for more than that...it's not pretty.
-while waiting for a new episode, you cram as much Lost-related things into your days as possible.
-you actually abandoned and forgot about most things that don't have to do with Lost.

that's all I got for now. ^_^

OMG!!! I'm kind of guilty of most of those things!!! Am I ill or something lol

You know they've been making fun of us on tv -- but I don't care I guess that's the sign
PS -- ALMOST got 3 1/2 hours of straight sleep last night --- breast feed with no rest in sight

When you are at a 3yr old's birthday party, and you're talking to your ex mother inlaw about Lost and this forum. Then the mother of the 3yr old say," you know you're obsessed when all you talk about is Lost at a 3 yr old party in the kitchen!" LOL

...when you go to college campus for a tour and make mental notes as to where all the big TVs are and plan to make a sign stating that that TV is reserved from the hours of 9 - 10pm on wed nights....

Me too. When you will force your dorm mate to leave the room on wednesday nights if they dont want to watch lost and then lock them out.

^ totally...:biggrin:

^ totally...:biggrin:

Yeah, our roommates are going to like us a lot!

Yeah, our roommates are going to like us a lot!

my entire residence hall is going to lock me out...b/c i'm LITERALLY going to have a BIG poster up saying that the biggest TV in the lounge is reserved every Wed night. And if anyone so much as ATTEMPTS to not obey it...well...it could get ugly...

... you even talk to your Spanish teacher about Lost, including theories and such. I gave her the link to this site on Friday. :lol:

oh, but wait!....do you talk to her about Lost in english, OR do you talk about "Perdido" en espanol? :biggrin:

You know you are obsessed with Lost when you want to make sure your fellow Lostaholics get to watch Lost on Wednesday nights. What else is there to do?

You put "You All Everybody" on your iPod.

.....Im guilty.:blush:

You know your obbsessed with LOST when you made an execute button to put on the ENTER key on your keyboard.

^ How did you put the song on your iPod? I really want to do that! iTunes doesn't have it though. :(

oh, but wait!....do you talk to her about Lost in english, OR do you talk about "Perdido" en espanol? :biggrin:
:lol: If I knew enough Spanish I'd do that! I thought about it, but I'm not fluent enough.

When I went to some website it just went on to my playlist!

Oh, I wanna see that. I hope some big football player throws you out of the dorm when you try to do that! just kidding or not.

hmmm...i'm not scared. :rolleyes:

....you know you're obsessed when you cried for a very long time when you heard that there were going to be two weeks of repeats...:bawling:

You cancel your current dish provider and order with the competitor just to get the free DVR to record Lost. :blushing:

When your teacher has a key around his neck and you imagine him being sucked to the magnet, crash into it, and get amnesia ....

lol not really .. , just the magnet part, not amnesia..

hmmm...i'm not scared. :rolleyes:

....you know you're obsessed when you cried for a very long time when you heard that there were going to be two weeks of repeats...:bawling:

But I suppose there wont be any football players at ur nerdy place anyway.

You know when you're obsessed when you have dreams that have your friends in them, but their names have all been changed to Lost character names. Freaky.

You actually play the numbers in Lotto

I do every week lol!

when you wander around muttering, "Two weeks? Really?"

When you bake brownies for yourself to celebrate reaching 200 posts (yeah, I'm really cool!)

when you feel envious because you heard someone else reached 200 posts

Feeling I'm now going to be lost without "LOST" for 2 full weeks. :undecide: :rolleye1: :frusty:

You go out and buy the first season on DVD just so you can watch it over and over while having withdrawls from 3 weeks without it.

And when you try to find hidden clues in everything else that you watch.

You can't help but stare incessantly at the cute high schooler in your Bio lecture and lab because he looks almost exactly like a certain blue-eyed hunk that died. I swear, he looks exactly like Boone except he has darker hair and his eyes are not as blue.

And when you try to find hidden clues in everything else that you watch.
I've done that.

When you make it a huge family crisis if you forgot your DVD set at home with your parents and DEMAND that they ship it to you ASAP!

You spend all of your time at work looking at lost sites.

(And I still get my work done! Don't know how.......)

when you discuss what it means to be "truly Lost" with your english teacher, when you are supposed to be talking about the O'Neill play that you are reading

.............Wednesday has replaced Friday as your favorite day of the week.

when you are asked to describe a tough situation on a French test, and write entirely about Lost and the castaways- in another language!!

.............Wednesday has replaced Friday as your favorite day of the week.
Absoloutly.

.... you give your family the silent treatment for not letting you watch a few minutes of Lost, even though its a repeat and you don't really have time to watch. :furious:

... you watch another show and you keep looking for the numbers in the background.

when you want to get customized license plates that say "Lost" on them

for spirit week in high school (i am in high school) you dress up on "TV character day" as a LOST character ( i was kate)........
and you make your group of friends do the same!!!! :biggrin:

it was awesome btw :)

When you are counting by fives, and start saying the numbers by mistake when you reach 15 (true story)

When you're bored you repeat the numbers over and over again. (guilty :) ) It's also fun to see how many people look at you funny. :biggrin:

When you press the enter button and think its the execute button instead.

When you constantly think of the numbers and think of how great it would be if you played the lotto with them.

...when you get im-ed about 40 bazillion times on this past wed b/c people were freaking out that Lost was a repeat...(true story...NO ONE knew it was a repeat)

When you're bored you repeat the numbers over and over again. (guilty :) ) It's also fun to see how many people look at you funny. :biggrin:
done that.

You can't think of anything else but Lost in your Government class because your studying John Locke and his Natural Law. (did this today)

Try "I saw John Locke on my test the other day and did a double take because 'pressing the button' was not a multiple-choice answer."

Try "I saw John Locke on my test the other day and did a double take because 'pressing the button' was not a multiple-choice answer."


I was PO'd I sold my History of Social Sciences text book... even though I got good money for it.

I was PO'd I sold my History of Social Sciences text book... even though I got good money for it.

This is very sad.:frown:

On the other hand, you know you're obssessed with LOST when you understand the pain expressed in this post.

...when someone sends you a halloween candy gram signed "Lost Star"...:-P

done that.

It's fun isn't it?

When you cry when you see that the Fuselage is pink and cutesy for halloween, instead of its pretty green and black!

when you've been on the lage long enough to KNOW that pink is the wrong color!

When people get the screaming about the hatch from Halloween

When you dream about something you've seen on it:

I had a dream 1 night ago that my hubby had a cut (an open one) on his knee and for some strange reason I had a bullet on me and opened it and poured gunpowder on it. In the dream he said 'what are you doing that for?' and I said 'cause Sayid did it to Charlie and lit it a match to it so it would stop the bleeding'. Strange thing is that is all I can remember. I don't think I ever lit the match. Hmm?

did you have any mini-bottles of vodka to wash it out?:biggrin:

did you have any mini-bottles of vodka to wash it out?:biggrin:

No, unfortunately I didn't - I already used them up....LOL! :24:

you know you're obssessed when you can read posts about dreams that connect to Lost and think, "Well, that's perfectly normal. I could understand that happening."

When you have needed to read 735 posts on this thread to realize your not alone
when you realize you could have restated your last point such that it would be a lost quote
when you list driveShaft as one of your favorite bands
you wish you had 400 knives

when posting on the Lage is the only way that you can make it through the day without pulling your hair out

when you designate rooms in your house to be places on the island, stick lifesize cardboard cutouts of all the characters in relevant places around the "island", and fit your whole life around them.

the patio is the beach, the bedroom the caves, the living room the jungle, the TV the fuselage, the toilet the hatch, the shed Black rock, and your car/bike as the raft..

btw: tropicanacabana: love the avatar; i'm poopin myself laughin at it! LOL

When you're taking notes for history, see "John Locke," and immediately ditch the history homework to go online and look for lost-related stuff.

hahahah thanks lumpia! unfortunately, I can't take credit for it lol. It's from
http://tross.proboards50.com/index.cgi?board=sawyerart&action=display&thread=1127301650
also I had to cut out a few frames (the file was too big..:( sad), the full version is funnier.

You lock your doors, and disconnect the phone.

Go online right after Lost and stay up late on the message boards talking about Lost.

You have several dreamd that you were on the island.

Pick up accent from Lost. Like desmonds or Charlie.. Or locke's hehe

Think about meeting all the actors.

Talk to you friend who is not interested. but you don't care Lost is way to awesome!

Spend 6 hours looking up Lost stuff

You brother who is a big Lost fan tell you , your obbsessed!

Make Lost icons all day (I do :-D)

Have a Lost pictures in your room.

Sleep with a teddy bear just because it was in lost ( i don't do that but it would be funny)

LOSTLOSTLOST!

You sneak out of bed after your spouse goes to sleep to avoid hearing complaints about your Lost obsession.

three things:

~you have your little LOST black book
~ you start using the internet more often u used too
~you can't stop yourself from posting in this forum

Amen to the above post

...you flip out when you hear some one use the line "leap of faith" b/c it reminds you of Orientation :p

You've Been Waiting And Waiting For Two Weeks To Pass And It Seems Like Forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

when you have had a horrible day and figure that Lost, The Fuselage and Guinness sound like the perfect escape.

When you watch tv shows or movies and see a plane and automatically think about the island.

When you see things flying around inside of an airplane, because some man wants to jump out, you think of the very beginning of the series. (guilty)

True enough Bescky.. looks like LOST is really infectious.. makes us all delusional or something..

-You paint all of your fingernails black except for your left index finger. You paint that blue. (That is exactly how my nails are right now.)

Why do u paint that one blue?!

Oooh got another....your addicted to the words "spot on" and say it constantly if your having a conversation with someone.


ok maybe I'm crazy but when did some1 say spot on?
