    ...it occurs to you that if Tron Identity Disc capabilities were applied to D&D they would be considered powerful artifacts.

    You have, on more than one occasion, camped out on the sidewalk for a movie, and then spent time writing code for other nerdy endeavors while waiting for the movie. bonus if it's been in multiple languages.

    ...you watch something like "LEGO Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Out", and when a piece of real-life SW merchandise is featured, like say, a lunchbox, you say, "Hey, I have that!".

    This is the lunchbox in question:

    When all of your old friends from High School post Star Wars-related things on your facebook page that you've seen years ago.

    -You spend more money on a single piece of memorabilia, than food in two months (happened with both my holo Nutes)
    -Your university lecturer is surprised at neither a Darth Vader USB or a talking R2-D2 keychain which sporadically goes off in class.
    -When multiple people tell you that they watched Episode I and thought of you, when the Neimoidians were on.
    -Your family is alright with having a life-sized Star Wars character soft-sculpture in their basement.

    When you run around snapping pics of cosplay at a Comic convention, but your day is really made when you find someone dressed as your favorite Marvel character.

    ...you had the thought that if you had gone to the Olympics and won a gold medal in fencing and then made sure to mention in interviews that you like Star Wars that just maybe Lucas would have cast you as a Force user in the prequels.

    You get a new iPad and use it to play "pew-pew" games in which you defeat enemy planets by building Lego houses on top of them.

    ...you consider that in Spaceballs the Ring Of The Schwartz was called a toy from a Cracker Jacks box, and possibly the lightsabers could be formed from the Schwartz without a ring because Yogurt said the Schwartz was "in you, Lonestar!"
