When you are at a (different) fandom specific meeting and all you talk is SSSS even your friends does not even know what it is

(and my friend was totally freaked out how Emil can fix hair like that, she totally did same but it got just messy and she could not understand xDxD her reaction was so funny xD)

When you're so bored in an exam you write to reccomend SSSS to whoever's marking your paper.



Spoiler: show
For those who can't read my writing, it says:
"If you want a break from marking however-many exam scripts, I'd advise you to check out a webcomic called 'Stand Still, Stay Silent'. It's set 90 years after a mysterious plague wipes out everywhere but Scandinavia, and focuses on a rag-tag band of people exploring the ruins of the old world. It's got great character interactions and some truly beautiful artwork, so give it a go if you've got the time! (I really hope I'm not getting marked down for this...)"


I think I might have actually gotten a mark for this...  :o

You are awesome, your grader is awesome. So much awesome. (I never did that, though I'm pretty sure that every exam-booklet left with either an SSSS character or an insert doodled in it. :P)

You know you're an <i>SSSS</i> addict when...

... someone in the comments mentions "rock, paper, scissors," and you decide to make it better:
Spoiler: show

"rock-paper-scissors-Mikkel-Emil-Sigrun-Reynir-Tuuri-Lalli"

rock: fist (no fingers or thumb)
paper: open palm (all fingers and thumb)
scissors: index and middle finger
Mikkel: thumb and fingers all touching at tip (mouth shut)
Emil: thumb up (lighter)
Sigrun: index and thumb make circle, all others extended (okay!)
Reynir: four fingers spread pointed down (animal legs)
Tuuri: pinkie up (forelock)
Lalli: index and pinkie (moose horns / magical defense)

rock breaks scissors, dirties Emil, trips Reynir, blocks Lalli.
paper covers rock, distracts Mikkel, bores Sigrun, distracts Tuuri.
scissors cuts paper, confuses Sigrun, clips Reynir's braid, concerns Mikkel.
Emil breaks scissors, burns paper, imprisons Reynir, befriends Lalli.
Mikkel fools Emil, lifts rock, gives assignments to Tuuri, quarantines Lalli.
Sigrun alarms Mikkel, climbs rock, instructs Emil, intimidates Tuuri.
Reynir infuriates Sigrun, feeds paper to sheep, worries Mikkel, barges in on Lalli.
Tuuri rejects Reynir, drives over rock, disassembles scissors, gets over Emil.
Lalli exasperates Tuuri, steals paper, runs with scissors, ignores Sigrun.

Okay everyone!

One ... two ... three ...

... and 2 weeks later you still remember all the rules.

Spoiler: show

This reminds me of the "Rock, paper, scissors, Spock, lizard" paper from some years ago, that outlined a general mathematical formula for all such games.

Based on that, a modest proposal:

"rock-paper-scissors-Mikkel-Emil-Sigrun-Reynir-Tuuri-Lalli"

rock: fist (no fingers or thumb)
paper: open palm (all fingers and thumb)
scissors: index and middle finger
Mikkel: thumb and fingers all touching at tip (mouth shut)
Emil: thumb up (lighter)
Sigrun: index and thumb make circle, all others extended (okay!)
Reynir: four fingers spread pointed down (animal legs)
Tuuri: pinkie up (forelock)
Lalli: index and pinkie (moose horns / magical defense)

rock breaks scissors, dirties Emil, trips Reynir, blocks Lalli.
paper covers rock, distracts Mikkel, bores Sigrun, distracts Tuuri.
scissors cuts paper, confuses Sigrun, clips Reynir's braid, concerns Mikkel.
Emil breaks scissors, burns paper, imprisons Reynir, befriends Lalli.
Mikkel fools Emil, lifts rock, gives assignments to Tuuri, quarantines Lalli.
Sigrun alarms Mikkel, climbs rock, instructs Emil, intimidates Tuuri.
Reynir infuriates Sigrun, feeds paper to sheep, worries Mikkel, barges in on Lalli.
Tuuri rejects Reynir, drives over rock, disassembles scissors, gets over Emil.
Lalli exasperates Tuuri, steals paper, runs with scissors, ignores Sigrun.

Okay everyone!

One ... two ... three ...

... and 2 weeks later you still remember all the rules.

When you definitely aren't planning to make an online playable version of this...

When your fandom-related craft budget never seems big enough in your exploding enthusiasm. >_>
(Seriously, I'm working on a Tuuri doll and Ebay's already claimed $40 in accessories from me when she doesn't even have a head yet...)

...You realize you've been playing the above almost as long as the bread's been in the oven and you get annoyed that you have to stop playing else risk a nasty burnt smell in the kitchen.

You know you are an SSSS addict when...

... you didn't install Flash on your computer for any reason whatsoever, until Ana Nymus posted her game link.

... and did so even though none of the installers worked at first, and you had to go through a bunch of extra steps that you would have had no patience for under any other circumstance.

... and you're now thinking, "well, now that I have Flash installed again, I could start working on an actual Stand Still Flash game.."

... even though you gave up on that line of work years ago.

Your post average is higher than Haiz's. I cannot help you. Especially not by saying I'll be posting my half of the art trade in the next hour or two.

Not... quite. Haiz still has a bit on you, Viola. But it's a frighteningly close call. Please promise me you'll sleep at some point?

Ah, I hadn't actually looked. I heard it was 11-point-something earlier. Frankly, I'm a teensy bit worried for anyone whose average is over 10.

EDIT: I've apparently made 22 posts today which is a helluva lot for me. *looks at time online* ... Maybe I shouldn't advise people on this topic.
