A song you're listening to randomly happens to include the phrase "stand still," and you find yourself doing a double take as you wonder where the rest of it is.
These two are definitely changed for me since I know SSSS:

...when a song involves that phrase, and immediately becomes your unofficial Lalli theme song despite being a rap.


EDIT to avoid doubleposting... this is my current screen setup



In case it's not clear, that's a half-finished SSSS art, the SSSS update checker, SSSS chat and Jureeya's SSSS art stream&chat. I may have a problem. The problem is that I don't have a third screen to tumblr and forum on the side.

I DO SAME THING



however I dunno what to do and have an opened canvas ready to draw, usually scrolling on tumblr looking for idea mostly, while on laptop I always watch something (usually movies, but now the stream)

So, one of my friends is introducing me to Gravity Falls and we get to this part:


And I start freaking out, wailing and hiding under my blanket because it's bringing to mind some... *ahem*... recent events.

(Fortunately one of the guys I was watching it with also reads SSSS and immediately got what I was talking about. The other one had to have it explained to him that this was not the first time this week I've seen a hypercompetent redhead get into serious trouble involving water, a hideous monster, and an axe.)

You know you're an SSSS addict when you get a message from a friend (who you'd recently recommended the comic to) that basically says "AJKDSHDKFSDK WHY IS THAT ALL THERE IS?!?! I NEED MORE" and you can't stop smiling.

You find yourself randomly explaining to a couple of kids Why You Do Not Want Hypothermia, because you might have gone and looked up way too much information in the course of worrying about Sigrun...

... when most all your recent before-bed online conversations have ended on god natt and hyvää yötä, respectively, even though neither of you is Swedish or Finnish.

(Of course, both people concerned are aware they're SSSS addicts, but still.  :-*)

Conversely, if you are not also explaining to these children how to ward off hypothermia once contracted, and how best to keep the sufferer from losing appendages, you may not have done enough research out of concern for Sigrun.

Well, I was also assuming they were intelligent enough not to jump into freezing water in the first place, but I could have explained that too if I'd had more time!

And perhaps demonstrated with a small, enthusiastic volunteer?
