You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends who are addicted to anime.
I am the bone of my sword
Steel is my body and fire is my blood
I have created over a thousand blades
Unknown to Death
Nor known to Life
Have withstood pain to create many weapons
Yet, those hands will never hold anything
So as I pray, unlimited blade works.

Quite a list, you could add.

You call your boyfriend Mr. Alien.
You insist you are really a robot.
You try to talk your friends into a no signals race.
You spend hours trying to build a pc into a life size doll.

But mostly you are addicted if Right Stuff, ADV, and other on line sellers know you by name and e-mail you about upcoming sales because they know you will buy anything you don't already have.
Where did you say I'm going?.... And what am I doing in a handbasket?
