Okay, for the past two months I have steadily grown addicted to this website. Maybe it's all the free time I have these days, oder maybe it's just I have an addictive personaily. It could of course be that this website is pure brilliance and I constantly think about it. Does that make me sad? No way! Because I can bet I'm not the only one. So here's a checklist of how to know when you've crossed the line between fanpop-addict, and totally-crazy. :)

1. Du form an opinion on something and think "I'm going to immediately make a pick about this"...and then the rest of your plan for the Tag goes out of the window because Du have to get the Bilder just right.

2. Similarly, Du find the need to constantly take a vote on everything. "Ok, who wants to change the channel on the TV? Right, now does anyone want to add a Kommentar to their vote?"

3. Du rate things at home. People's new hairstyles, work you've done, meals that people cook, every episode of things Du see on TV...

4. Du start to use "I'm a Fan of..." in everyday conversation way too much. "You know, I'm a real Fan of erdnussbutter, peanut butter and salt-and-vinegar crisp sandwiches... I wonder if there's a spot on it..."

5. Du give the people around Du imaginary Requisiten for Zufällig things. "Grandma, Du make the best chocolate-chip kekse, cookies ever. Requisiten for the cookies"

6. Du actually wonder what your Fanpop Fans are up to in realworld, and Du consider them some of your best friends. Du actually ask all your real-world Friends what their Motto is, because most of your fanpop-friends have them, why the hell shouldn't they?

7. Du have answered every single pick on your fan-spots, and continue to re-load them just to check if the balance has changed. If your vote isn't winning, Du feel actual anger that Du take out on your keyboard Von determedly typing an opinion-comment on the pick explaining just why YOU'RE RIGHT. :)

8. When someone gives Du props, oder adds Du to their fanlist, Stimmen for Du on a favourite-users pick, Kommentare your picks etc - you're happy for the rest of the day, even if your house just burned down oder you've just killed someone oder something...

9. Du read an Artikel in a magazine/newspaper and Du want to Kommentar and rate it, forgetting of course that not all Artikel are soapbox, and Du can't actually do it. Du then feel very upset :(

10. Du remain throuroughly convinced that Fanpop WILL become the biggest thing ever, and reccomend the website to everyone Du know. Du envision a time in the future when everyone is as crazy about fandoms as Du are, and your Friends will stop hitting Du around the head and saying "If Du mention Fanpop one Mehr time I will throw Du through the window"

...and I've only been here two months. God help people who've been here longer!
