You poor newbie. And you even have the forum! We veterans did not have any kind of consolation all the first times! Come here, little one, you'll soon feel better, only one week left!

- When your first post on Facebook in over three years is a link to some fanart.
- When that fanart is the first fanart you've drawn in a year and a half.
- When you begin noticing people with really pale hair.
- When you are excited the farm across the street is flooded because it reminds you of the scenery in a certain comic.
- When you think this activity is really fun.
- When you see a frog and immediately think of pirates.
- When you know not only the time of day in the Nordic countries, but the current weather and temperature as well because it's fun to compare it to your own.

*snickers* You know you're a forum addict when...

I do the same thing with snakes, but that's my own fault...

- When you're having a great time at Thanksgiving with the extended family... and STILL in the back of your head, you're calculating how many hours until you're back home and can check the forum for updates (because your parents are far too attentive to their computer's browser history).

- When you recycle forum bon mots in Thanksgiving conversation as "this... uh... friend of mine mentioned something about the Norwegian Army (or Spanish idioms, or anime soundtracks, or the Tasmanian apple industry)" because you don't want to explain the concept of "hanging out on a forum" to elderly relatives.
"The music of what happens," said great Fionn, "that is the finest music in the world."

That's a good strategy though! And it has the added benefit of keeping them off your back about being ~more social~, at least until they start asking you about bringing those friends over to visit...

When you get food on yourself and think, "Oh no, the Finns will think I'm messy!"

When you browse through the old galleries. Again. And again. And - wait, I found an older gallery with more in it (mostly commisioned work, I think)!! How did I miss that, I can't believe I missed that!

Thanks for the nudge, in fact, there's an entire layer of static-HTML-website hidden behind the later PHP one. Including an ancestor of the language tree and proof that Emil is a fox (scroll all the way down)!

Fox-Emil. My gosh. Maybe Puppy keeps Emil's hair fabulous as a side-hobby while he's doing community service? XD

... oh my God, it's a side effect of mind control! It just cannot be coincidence that Emil would turn into a Puppy-Fox-level pyromaniac from one second to the next, just 'cause of that one poster, can it?
