You know you're obsessed with Heroes when..., Just a fun topic Options

[Rapidwhirl]

You know your obsessed with Heroes when:

You try to correct my spelling of Heroes.

You create original Heroes characters, theories, and story pitches hoping that they will be read by the producers or writers and added to the show.

You jump whenever you see a shadowy figure wearing a baseball cap.

You become frustrated after finding it impossible to break an object's molecular stability.

Wondering whether the translators got it right or not, you begin taking Japanese lessons.

Attempting to be original yourself, you take twenty minutes compiling a list for things that someone completely obsessed with Heroes might do.

You study professional Bushido sword masters to be sure Hiro isn't butchering an art.

You serve any overweight friends that you have cottage cheese.

You stick to one side of an unsolved question, and bring it up whenever you can to cause a repetitive debate.

You refresh a topic every 10 seconds hoping someone has read your post and typed a response.

You know your obsessed with Heroes when...

You haven't filled the void with another show.

You create and participate in fun threads to make the time fly between episodes.

You Google the last name "Suresh" and an attempt to contact them.

Despite many failed attempts, you continue testing and retesting yourself in order to find a power.

There is a hidden, sound proof room in your house.

You threw out all non-digital clocks, and haven't replaced them.

Every morning you check the side of your neck.

After researching serial killings, you become relieved to find no head unzipping; then remember the information is classified.

You pack up and move every two months in an attempt to avoid death.

You watched the SG list unfold frame by frame in an attempt to locate your name.

After getting many weird looks by your friends for not doing any of the crazy stuff you usually do, you tell them that "Heroes is coming back next Monday and I want to be in perfect health and free from legal responsibilities in order to see it."

You find yourself staring eagerly into this widget.

When your wife walks into the room while your skimming the forums and she screams "MY god it's a SHOW".

[PaxLux]

When your friends and colleagues at work start avoiding you because you talk about the show so much.

You are CONTSTANTLY on these boards(guilty), listen to the podcast(guilty) and record every episode and rewatch it several times during the week waiting on the next one to air(guilty!).
I found myself the other day doodling in the back of my math notebook. I drew "Heroes" with an eclipse, the godsend symbol, the Kensei Sword, Claire, Hiro and Peter...then the bell rang.

I wish I could doodle as good as some people. If you don't think it looks crappy; (and you haven't already) you should submit it on fan art.


You know your obsessed with Heroes when you dream of being on the show.

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

You greet the empty elevator (when it arrives on your floor) at work with "Hey, Claude! How's it going, mate?"

You have decorated the suspended light at work with pigeons (or paper cranes).

You have frequent dreams about Claude (or any one else from Heroes).

You have replaced the event sounds on your computer with quotes from Heroes.

Your desktop wallparper for the computer has one or more Heroes characters (and you have several more saved to swap around).

You make those type of wallpapers.

You make your own Heroes related icons.

You've actually tried that "make a thousand paper cranes and you get a wish" thing.

[tarot1]

Yes I set the interviews up...perseverence!

WOW! That is so cool! Congratulations!

[betsybraddock]

This thread is so cool I'm not THAT obssessed yet, I have to admit, but I am guilty of some things, so here they are:

- When during a conversation with a person, it comes out that you actually speak 5 languages, and when the person asks you how you managed to learn all that, you answer: "Well, it's just something my brain does" or "My brain has been memorizing everything lately"

I actually did that with a friend of a friend, and of course, she stared at me like "WHAT?", and my friend just started laughing (She watches Heroes too ) And yeah, I do speak 5 languages: Italian, English, Portuguese, French and Spanish.

- When you go around the internet, searching for a German dictionary so you can read it and when you do, you get frustrated you don't automatically speak German

- When you go to the Activate Evolution site and feels the urge of sending Mohinder an email in the hopes he'll answer you. Until your husband comes around and tells you "Well, you do know this site isn't real, right?" to snap you out of it

- When you suddenly feel the urge of taking Hindu classes...


And some quotes:

-You hope that Mohinder will come to your door asking about you (It hasn't happened yet...I'm still waiting).

Oh now... wouldn't THAT be awesome... I guess if it ever happened, I'd suddenly think of some cool power like "Oh you know, Doctor, I can turn everything into chewing gums, can you examine me? Please?"

you are only dating your bf because he looks like milo drool.gif (but he also had a great personality!)

Well, you see... My husband actually looks A LOT like Zachary Quinto and I never realized it until I saw some of his interviews, and I went like. "GEEEZ I know someone that LOOKS like him", then looked at hubby right next to me, then back at him, then went "OMG"

But since I've been married for more than 4 years now, it's a pure coincidence (also cause my favorite char in Heroes isn't Sylar anyway )

[MrMuggleshasapow...]

You get your pomeranian confused by calling her Mr. Muggles all the time.

You keep trying to heal your plants

[Rapidwhirl]

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

You camped out on the Deveaux building in an attempt to see the cast.

Instead of entering your home through the front, you go in the back way.

You have a strange aversion to old men.

You go to a friend's house on Mondays. (Guilty, but all the televisions at my house were occupied!)

People who are just getting into the show ask you questions.

Even worse, people who are just getting into the show don't ask you questions.

You turn your phone off every Monday night.

Your family says you are obsessed with Heroes.

They ask you who plays each character.

Then they brag about your knowledge.

*raises hand* ME! ME! That is partially why I joined theater this year. I want to get that good.

You know you are obssessed when you constantly have dreams involving Heroes(GUILTY x 6!).

[Rapidwhirl]

You know you are obssessed when you constantly have dreams involving Heroes(GUILTY x 6!).

Only six times? Hahahahahaha! I dream about it way more often then that! I day dream about it before going to sleep, and after waking up everyday! I've come up with character concepts, theories, and plot ideas. Who knows what I'm coming up with when I'm actually asleep.

You know your obsessed with Heroes when...

You lord how obsessed you are over other fans.

You retaliate by stating that you just picked a random number, and you have been doing more-or-less the same.

You say you're sorry and both of you go about your lives.

You predicted exactly what the person's response would be to your gloating, and posted it on the forums, thus averting the situation.

I do that too but I've had dreams while I'm asleep dealing with Heroes 6 times. For example, I had this one where Sylar was coming after Molly Walker and my friend Brittany so I teamed up with Ando and Hiro and the Power Rangers. We went to get Tommy but he was the Green Ranger and was all evil and had teamed up with Sylar. I was like "NO!!!!". LOL

[tarot1]

I haven't bothered to count the number of times I've had Heroes related dreams, I just wrote them down when I woke up. Usually, Claude is in them. A lot have involved running away from OWI/Primatech/the Company or other stuff.

[MrMuggleshasapow...]

When you get upset you automatically look at your hands to see if they start glowing.

I've never had Heroes related dreams yet (or I might and don't remember, it's been a while since I remember any of my dreams), but I always have LOADS of ideas for characters and storylines, but that happens with each and every single TV show I watch, so I don't know if that would qualify as obsessing

When you use your middlie finger to push up your glasses. (I do that)

[LindzLu]

You know your obsessed with Heroes when..........

- you've recorded and watched the premiere episode every day this week(ME)
- when you stay home from school/work you watch Heroes all day
- you call your dog Mr.Muggles
- you slap your friends when they miss Heroes(or at least want to!)

[archange11]

You think about either your a robot or an alien, daily...? :D:D
