When you visit the site
And can't help but rhyme
When you look day and night
And you lose track of time

When you comment on all
And every reply
Refresh every minute
'Till your keyboard, it cries

Every corner you look
For trolls everywhere
Every cranny and nook
Every panel you stare

Every detail you glean
Each word every face
All and every scene
Every single line trace

It holds an allure
Every minute you've clicked
You realise that you're a
Webcomic addict.
A man left his Icelandic home
Escaped to Denmark to freely roam
With hair braided red
He got hit on the head
With a crate lid slammed onto his dome

Well, we can definitely admire your dedication - there's some 20000 posts on here at this point (and a sizable portion of them are quite silly)!
I'm making my way. Slowly but surely. I will know everything!

Extra points if you commit to some nightly adbusting and it takes them at least a month to notice the "Finlandia". 8)

... you see this (note last photo!) and immediately ponder whether you know someone working at your bank of issue you could get interested in Minnas artwork.

When you see an indirect connection with SSSS in the most unexpected things. I was visiting relatives, I was bored, and I picked up the first book from the shelf. Aaaand it turned out that the name of one of the main characters is Onni. "This is already my favorite book, and I have to read it right now!" - I said to myself.
Moreover, the book was filled with familiar place names. I couldn't remove the stupid smile off my face,
stumbling on words such as "Mikkeli" or "Pori" in the text. And yes, now this book belongs to me.

When your brother mentions the time he got really seasick and that makes you ponder if you get seasick - only to conclude that you are not a Lalli.

When you go on a walk downtown Reykjavík to pinpoint the exact street quickly shown on page 56 by comparing the view to the sea and the mountain in the distance (most likely Esjan, judging by the shape).

Wow! Her art is stunning! D: I went to her Etsy to see if I could get a print of one of the banknotes, but she's only selling originals for way more than I can afford. And her bestiary is wonderful as well.
But I found a copy of Alma for $10... if only I could read it, and also buy from a Hungarian website. Hm....

You are on a mission or seriously considering growing your hair tying it in a braid and possibly dying it red.

When you go to work and have a near heart attack when something is head crawling around in the ceiling of the warehouse and end up quite relieved when it is not a troll that ends up falling through the ceiling, but a cat.

No I didn't take a picture of the cat didn't have the camera on me and it didn't feel like sticking around, though I did get one of where it fell through the ceiling.

It landed on a pile of horse blankets if anyone's worried.

When you've started using the phrase "most best" in everyday life, particularly when baby-talking to your dog:
"Who's the most best dog?? You's the most best dog!!"

You know riding home after work on my scooter at night didn't used to be scary. Now the shadows move ominously. Was that a Troll?
