...you are in the supermarket, looking at the turkeys and think "Fat and healthy, eh? Wonder how many units of meat I'd get off that one?"
...you pass a farm on the way to work and find yourself wondering what the CL of random livestock.
...you try to /areatrack to find out where your carkeys are. Then realise it only works on animals, NPCs and players.
(Idea mercilessly harvested from the GCW forum, but hey, they prolly liberated from someplace else)

See, I wanted to make for of you ken, butI have found myself wishing for a waypoint to the grocery store! 
Oh, and to prove I am a real Ranger, I got lost, but eventually found my way outof every casino I went into in Vegas with some of my guildmates last May... I felt like I was in Tyrena.

...if you've ever wished for a p-dart when your dog gets loose of the yard and you have to chase him
...if you've ever tried to set up a small tent and wanted a food craftine machine to be there
...if you've ever wondered why your wounds don't heal better next to a camp fire in real life.
...if you've ever caught yourself putting your hand up to your head and looking around in the /areatrack animation-- even when your indoors.
...if you've ever been told to "feed the pets" when outside and almost decided to forage your own lawn.

You are driving home and an aggro SUV spawns right in front of you.
You speed past a State Trooper and pray your camo holds.
You feel vaugely disgruntled that you can't climb stairs faster than other people.
You think about the perky chick in the next cubicle who goes to the gym every morning, jogging every lunch break, and clubbing every night and mutter "stacker" under your breath. (ok, so thats not a Ranger specific one)

...WhenI accidently blurted out "Rangers for teh win!" at work when I fixed something. Then quickly looked around as if someone else said it.

not ranger specific, but, you know you've been playing MMOs too long when:
... you try to /follow theToyota ahead of you because you don't feel like driving

You're at the doctors office and you feel the urge to tell him about a new shift of Dath Avian meat with 1000 PE and ask if he's buying.
You see a roach and and you want to check it's OQ and DR.
Someone keeps calling you at home and your first thought is to hide your master ranger tag.
Your wife asks if you could find her purse, and you shout "THIS IS NOT A TRADE FORUM"

aw thanks folks, you've made my day. 
Been stuck with a horrid fluish thing the past couple of weeks and felt rotten. But this really cheered me up.
Okay...
You know you've played Ranger too long when...
...you get lost coming out of the supermarket carpark and find yourself grumbling about ***ned player cities.
...you wonder if you CAN get a harvest droid and set it on next doors cats.

...you can draw to scale maps of over 9/10 of the SW galaxy and can locate off hand the best spawn points.
...you look at a hill and think "That would be a great spot for a HTFB...wonder is there is a good fising spot near it?"
...you find a stream and start fishing only to wait for the box to pop up.

...The wife wants to go christmas shopping and you immediately try and think of the most crouded spot to go because of the high spawn rate and everyone there will be 'fat and healthy'
or conversely...
...you go to the middle of nowhere for christmas shopping because you don't want people stealing your kills
