Post your humurous "You Know You're a STAR WARS Geek When...." examples here.
They can be what you actually have done or if you just thought it would be funny.
Take mine for example.
You Know You're a STAR WARS Geek When....
1. two little kids make fun of you and your SW bud and you reply: "Don't insult us. We're wanted men, I have the death sentence on twelve systems"
2. When you ask your Mom for a ride to your friends house and she says no so you reply: "I guess we'll have to go out on tauntauns then"
Please someone continue.

Or when every day you go to work and the first thing you say to your boss is: "What is thy bidding my Master?"

Ohh, I'm definetly guilty of that one.
...you go into a fabric store and sort all the fabrics into categories depending on which SW costume they could be made for (even if you have never planned to make that costume)
...you actually visit one or more places where they have shot the films.
...you expect the Lucasfilm logo to come up every time you hear the Fox fanfare.

When walking into WAL-MART you say to your friend: "I'll get the door" and move your hand forward setting of the sensors for the automatic door. (Guilty)
Whan your car is having troubles and you tell the machanic you think it has something to do with the negative power coupling.
When in class you reply to your teacher with C3P0's lines. (Guilty)
when on a resume you write you can speak six million languages, and that protocol is your primary function.

You sign off your emails with "Clear Skies" instead of "Goodbye".
All your friends at the Internet cafe call you "Yav'", cos you created an email address called "Yavin", and they thought it was your name, and you never realised until they shortened it.
You walk through a crowd of people, dodging around them, and Ackbar's phrase from the ROTJ novel springs to mind: "Take evasive action. Green Group steer for holding sector MG-7..."
