    When you're planning to get off the Internet but stay two hours longer than you planned because "OMG a minisode of my favorite series just made everything canon that I didn't even realize I wanted canon!"

    When you curl up in a ball and sob tears of joy because of said minisode.

    And still feel the same way eleven hours later.

    You know you're not a nerd when you feel good about not watching Dr. Whom.

    You know you aren't a nerd when the above.

    And it's Doctor. Not abbreviated, it's a name.

    You get Star Wars trivial pursuit for Christmas and it's you against the entire family so it'll be "fair," only for you to trounce everyone. The victory is so lopsided that the game basically sat and collected dust for the next 15 years. With only the occasional attempt at a rematch. The outcome never changed.

    You get $50 as an early Christmas present from your dad, and you promptly go on Amazon to buy a Hot Wheels Battlestar Galactica Cylon Raider (I have a Colonial Viper that's lonely) and a Enterprise, not to mention a couple die-cast Star Wars ships with it.

    (Gonna pull a Juliet. Sorry Ender.:()

    you always carry a pen or two around with you, in your pocket. This is generally for practical use, but you also frequently take one out and flourish it in the air as a gesture, often indicating direction. Sometimes when you do this you imagine that it is a sonic screwdriver and you're The Doctor.

    A pen or two? I carry three, in blue, black, and red. Just to be on the safe side.

    And occasionally green as well.

    Your daughter gets you an Van Gogh exploding Tardis t-shirt and your son in law gets you a Star Trek electronic door chime.

    I suppose this character is somewhat obscure or not that well known. So if you don't know then no biggy.

    Your employee number is 51 and everyone in the shop refers to backshop where you work as Area 51. And when someone from the prep dept finds a small R2D2 in a traded in car. they give it to you cause they know you would have it to hang up on your box.
