All I wanted was for my town to survive the apocalypse...
I will nominate you as a post apocalyptic leader when the rash strikes.  ;)

When reaching out for the phone to check the comic for updates first thing in the morning is starting to become a part of your muscle memory.
Have a more extensive vocabulary in :england: than :sweden: (which is scary considering that I'm born and raised here)
Can only pronounce a few sentences of :spain:

You know you're an SSSS addict when you're texting a friend who's just caught up on the comic, and your phone autocorrects "Reynni" to "Reynir-crushing-on-Onni". (The ridiculous thing is, I have no memory of ever typing that phrase...and I'm not even on that ship.)

It's your phone. Your phone is on that ship. It only wants for them to be happy.

O_O My phone is a traitor.

Not that I don't also want them to be happy, I just...want Reynir to be happy with Tuuri and Onni to be happy with...someone. Possibly Reynir's brother. I may have thought through a whole scenario (alternate universe) where that happens.

My phone consistently expands "week" to "weekending?". "Weekending" is not a word I would ever use in a million years, let alone with a question mark.

When someone returns this book to your library and you're so tempted to check it out even though you barely cook and never end up making the things you find in cookbooks anyway.


Does it include boiled squirrel?

You know what? I didn't check it out, so I don't know! I guess now I'll have to. For research purposes, of course. ;)

Wow, a signrug is waaaay less exciting than a Sigrun. Those spam email people need to up their game.

Sigruns! Sigruns! Getcha most best Sigruns here! 50% off, complete with knives! You'll be the envy of all your friends! Senses of caution and tact not included, ask your doctor if Sigrun is right for you.

When someone introduces themselves as a Norwegian national and the first question which rises to your lips is "Do you know Sigrun Eide?"
I saw the future.

You know central Copenhagen by heart after Google Streetview-walking every street trying to see if you can find a matching location for page 482.

Well, that's impressive I suppose, but you're not a real addict until you've flown halfway around the planet to take photographs that match panels from a webcomic ;D

(Sadly said webcomic - Warren Ellis's FreakAngels - is no longer online, so you can't compare my pics to the source unless you get your hands on some hardcopies. Also, I didn't go to London just to track down comic locations :) )
