You Know You're an SSSS Addict When...

[mithrysc]

* You write FLAMES and FIRE in all-caps, always.

* Sparkly must always be capitalized, also (i.e. Emil the Sparkly)

* You can identify the flag of your country, as well as the flags of Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland, though you're pretty much lost about everything else

[Eich]

You start learning semi-obscure European languages and your friends make fun of you for it

Thiiiiis.  I have to explain my reasoning, and then they just mock me more.  They think I should learn Spanish, just cause America is next to Mexico. 

Seeing how we've got some people in the community who do stuff for the community...  You know you're an addict when:
 - You admin/moderate a forum for the comic.
 - You work on a wiki for the comic.

(Shout out to my main mod Noako!)

Seriously though, why do people need a cheat sheet for this? It's not that hard really.

It isn't that hard, but I guess visual stuff like flags can be harder for other people? Like how some people can't tell the characters apart :/

Also:
* You have an exam tomorrow but "a few more minutes on the forum won't hurt....."

I .... I should go.

Of course it's not hard if you're from, say, one of those countries. It also doesn't help that the designs of the flags are ridiculously similar, save for the colors; so while it's relatively easy to pick up, it's rather confusing at first.

Also:
* You have an exam tomorrow but "a few more minutes on the forum won't hurt....."

* You have a paper to revise and speech due, but you decide to go and check the forum anyway. And review some [insert Scandinavian language here] words.

Heh. Guess our market leader's getting his hide pained tomorrow.

Eeeeehhh, I don't quite have that excuse, seeing that the list of similes to my country's flag is almost twice as large as theirs.

...When you post a comment and find yourself dredging miscellaneous SSSS facts out of your memory without bothering to look it up..

[Crestlinger]

You are Addicted to SSSS when you:
binge read everything in a day 
have read and contributed to the entire forum. 
try to be the first (constructive) post across X time zones.
have come up with at least ten other meanings of SSSS.
you start prepping SSSS level zombie gear after getting up to the current page from the start
you develop a fear of bridges, trains, and tunnels.

and finally You are Addicted to SSSS when you:

are part of the X character fan club. 

[Oskutin]

When you'll start blending this (especially characters) with other universes.
When you'll start expanding the universe by yourself.
When you'll join the forums and (attempt) to read this comic every day.

[SpiritRising]

-When you re-read not only ssss but aRTD over and over and it doesn't matter that you're in class, it's 4am, or you have to do your homework/go to work.
-You try to convince your friends about why cats are better than dogs because they can sense when it's safe from trolls.
-You reply when your friends ask what you're on, you say Emil's hair care products.

Also you're very obsessed when you realize that you detest Fridays because there are no more updates for two days, and you can't wait for Mondays to come when Minna updates again...but you still button mash F5 because you're hopeful that she'll post something anyways.....

[Sparky Dragon]

...when you realize that at least half of these actually apply to you
...the clothes on the people you draw suddenly have an uncanny resemblance to a uniform in SSSS
...you've told at least three people to go look at the Fan-Forum

[Clayres]

Also you're very obsessed when you realize that you detest Fridays because there are no more updates for two days, and you can't wait for Mondays to come when Minna updates again...but you still button mash F5 because you're hopeful that she'll post something anyways.....

Or you stay awake all night (when you know there're night updates at least), just so you don't miss the new page coming up...
and then realize it's Friday and you really should get some sleep. (oh well, at least I hadn't to stand up early because, Saturday)

Edit: Also, if you make cat voices you say "nau" instead of [whatever you've said before, miau or mau/mao in my case].

[Elrew]

You have raved to a friend about the beauty of Finnish poetry
You can actually recite Finnish poetry
You have long list of reasons why moving to Iceland is a great idea
You managed to subtly base your art coursework on SSSS
Also your music coursework...
