....you see ships flying by over head and wonder why they cant be targeted...


you noticea star destoryer in orbit, yet it is no where to be found when you launch


you feel sorry for some poor new kid you see talking to the storm squadron trainer in Bestine


you wonder if you can dock your multi-crew ship with a corvette and capture it from the inside....


you refuse to fly, or even use the travel option with out first putting on your pilot flight suit


you get into arguements with friends over which gloves/boots to wear with the flight suits match those in the movies


when the server is down you load up TIE Fighter or X-wing Alliance to get your space "fix"


that reguardless of your faction, atleast once you have flown into the bridge of the star destoryer like in Return of the Jedi


that you did rebel pilot with an alt and the first thing you did at master was get an A-wing and fly into the bridge of the star destoryer


you have different colored flight suits you only wear for certain ships, orange for X-wings...green for A-wings.....

You go see Revenge of the Sith, see Senetor Organas Corvette-looking ship, and automatically pinpoint gun number five.

....after seeing Episode III, and watching the huge space battles with all the ARC-170s and Jedi Starfighters, you instinctively think "Deep Space."


....when watching the original films and seeing the huge space battles, you pretend to grab a joystick and a throttle in midair, and punch toward the enemy leader.


....you fly your A-wing into the Star Destroyer at full speed, take screens, and label them, Its Return of the Jedi All Over Again!


Thats all I can think of for now, they aren't really funny, but they all happened to me!

I don't know about this one. Maybe to get ingredients for 8 different RE projects, but not for ONE project, heh. That'd be a CRAZY pilot.

After your umpteen death, you notice you have 1000 BF and decide not to hit the cantina because it would cut into precious flying time.


You try to out do your best Epulse 3 death count. (I'm up to 8 kills, but can't seem to get to 9 kills yet)


all your maintence for housing, harviesters, and factories and fully funded by Space.


you get your final reward shield from the trainer, you suddenly feel that your a God in space. (What? Head in the clouds? What are you talking about, they are way down there silly.)

1. Instead of saying "Wow, look at that!" you say "Pick up your visual scanning!"


2. when parking your car you scream at passengers "We are going in full throttle!"


3. When overtaking a car you mumble "This one is strong in the Force!"


4. when you turn of your car radio you hear a voice in your head saying "Luke youve switched of your targeting computer, whats wrong?"


5. you have a CD of astromech noises you play in your car with the sound directed to the rear speakers.


6. When watching any space battle in any Star Wars movie your brain automatically calculates reactor/engine hits, shield shunts, special moves, the "sweet spot" of speed for each ship and your hands twitch as if holding an invisible joystick.


7. when watching the same space battles you no longer think "Wow" but think "I could do that/have done that/could do that better!"


6. Reality and artificial reality blur so much that when playing on the computer you turn around to look for enemy fighters. Also, you have been know to ignore your car rearview mirrors and scramble for the hat switch or . key.


8. If male you have been know to say to your partner on occassion "Your all clear kid, now lets blow this thing and go home!"


9. If male you have been know to shout "Its away!" at the moment of rapture.


10. If hetero female/ homo male you have been know to say "Negative it just impacted on the surface!" on the start of penetrative sexual manouverings.


11. If you have an inexperienced paramour you have been known to inform them that the blueprints on this astromech droid will help!


12. On encountering any difficult/unfeasible plans you whisper "What good are snubfighters against that?"


13. When going anywhere on any form of transport with a group of people you say "Everyone to your fighters!"


14. When meeting someone you ask them "Which hype point?"


15. When driving a car your speed, aggression and dangerousness increase with the quality of the orchestral music you hear instead of the normal persons techo/dance/metal.


16. When congratulating someone on anything you say "You vaped him/her/them/that!", you also tell stories about "vaping" people/things in RL.


17. You call bars "cantinas"


18. you call airports/train stations/bus stops "starports"


19. You call ticket machines "terminals"


20. Whilst in RL "cantinas" you regale customers of your daring combat missions with hand movements to suggest various combat manouvers. At no point do you make any distinction between the real world and the virtual nor do you mention that this all happened in SPACE. e.g. "I engaged the corvette near d435 in dathomir sector and was bounced by enemy fighters, i downed on instantly with a missile and another with a snap shot, after bleeding of some speed and a split-S mavouer i dropped in on the last TI..... enemy fighter and put a couple shots up his tailpipe. THEN, i turned back to attack the corvette!"


21. You put the same jacket and hat on every time you travel in any mode of transport.


22. You salute anyone on the street with the same hat or jacket as you, or you salute someone with a gaudy necklace and ask them if it is "biosigged".


23. You join a chain gang for the orange jumpsuit.


24. When you open your car sunroof you say "Lock S-foils in attack position!"


25. When your car exhaust starts making funny noises you say "Hold on artoo!"


26. when your exhaust finally falls of you say "Im hit , but not bad. Artoo see what you can do with it back there!"
