Reply “IANAL” when someone asks what you do for a living.
Rummage through antique and resale shops looking for a 1920’s style death ray.

HAHAAAHHHHH!!!
My mother is a secretary/claims rep. She passed onto us TripKids the genetics for fast typing. HAH! If my keyboard would be a weapon, it’d be a damn mini-gun .
Tripler
Wait, my keyboard is a weapon. And I am it’s master.
You know the author, play and SDMB incident to which the Winter of Missed Content refers to without looking it up.
You’ve posted to the Are Scalar Weapons Real? thread.
Hi, Opal!
You have witnessed, but never incurred the wrath of Banhattan.
You avoid corn flakes because someone might call you “General Mills.”
You remember when tomendebb was a mere 2,000 post Doper with a spring in his step and a gleam in his eye!
You’re Lynn Bodoni’s bitch.
Cecil posting to a thread you’ve started is a religious experience.
You know it never hurts, deep down, to suck up to the moderators.
You know TMi and you’re not afraid to use it.
… Putz! (wink) is your insult of choice.
You might be a Doper IF:
You almost drive your car off the road composing a heated pit debate responding point by point to previous posts and citing other threads in your head.
Do separate tabs count?

. . . you realize from a previous post that your keyboard might be a scalar weapon.
. . . you think it’s about time for another Doper Photo thread/page.
Tripler
Actually, it is time for another photo thread.
You might be a Doper if while writing an essay for a college history final, you WRITE out (insert sarcastic smilie here).

You might also be a Doper if you crack up during said final exam and immediatly think, I have to post that on the You Might be a Doper thread.
You might be a Doper if you see usernames in everyday media (books, TV, movies, posters, etc.) and crack up hysterically while your friends stare at you.
Yes, this has happened…
… you know exactly how many times man has visited the deepest part of the ocean, when, and for how long.
… every time you see a news report of someone dying, your first thought is “Damn, that’s 18 points I could have had!”
Often while watching the news, I’ll see a tidbit from someplace and realize that I know nothing whatsoever about that place’s history, culture, economy, etc., but I can name like five Dopers who live there.
I’ve SO done this. I took a class called “Energy Conversion” and they were telling me how “Anthracite” is the most awesome of the coals. I’m trying to remember some of the other cases…
…if you post threads and replies at 3:00 a.m.
