Not the whole list, but some fun ones.
1. When watching sci-fi movies, you wonder if the weapons being fired count as lances or weapons batteries.
2. You think the Death Star blowing up was caused by double 6 on the critical hit table.
3. You have begun to model your first Emperor class Battleship at 1:1 scale (you'll be finished painting the first rivet any day now)
4. You believe that your 6+ Space Marine armor causes the enemy to roll 6's more effectively.
5. You cannot understand why the don't use hundreds of expendable indentured workers to load the torpedoes in Star Trek.
6. You have attached working rocket engines to all your spaceships (just in case)
7. You see a sailboat and think "Bloody Eldar!"
8. You wonder 'what is the broadside WB firepower of an Imperial Star Destroyer?'
9. You have already calculated the number of launch bays a Trade Federation Battleship actually has.
10. When watching a Star Trek or B-5 re-run, you smile inwardly at how the upcoming Emperor's Great Crusade will wipe 99.9% of those accursed alien Xenos out of existence in only another 20 to 30 thousand years.
11. You walk into the local GW store, you are greeted by first name, and they ask YOU about BFG rules (for any game for that matter)
12. You always try to park your car with its side towards the sun.
13. You feel free to commit crimes, as you can move your car two times compared to the police moving only once.
14. You go steal golfballs at a nearby course to make moons and asteroids.
15. You've spent more on the fleet than your wife or girlfriend...
16. or your car.
17. When you can use the phrase "Well, the first three Desolators I built..." and be telling the truth.
18. When you say "Brace for Impact!" before an argument with your gf or wife.
19. When traveling you turn in your laptop/digital camera bag as checked baggage so that you can be sure that your spaceship miniatures in a customized carrying case are hand luggage.
20. When you get stopped and interrogated by airport security after your spaceship carrying case is zapped in the x-ray machine and flagged and suspicious. They let you go with your ships only because they get tired of listening to you talk for 30 minutes straight about what a cool game Battlefleet Gothic is - especially when you tell them the ship classes names like Dictator, Murder, Carnage, Slaughter, Terror Ship, Reaper, or talk about th e40K universe in general.
21. You go to a gaming store you haven't visited in nine months and are recognized immediately as the "Battlefleet Gothic guy."
22. The owner pulls you aside to tell you all the latest about BFG he heard direct from a GW distributor, and you tell him with sincerity his source is misinformed.
