You mistakenly call your son "Abaddon" instead of Aiden when he was mis-behaving.  Got yelled at by my wife for a day.
However, in Wonder Woman # 34, written by Gail Simone, Dinah Lance, the Black Canary, mentions Power Girl as the top bosom of DCU, comparing her assets with a "national treasure"

Very nice indeed.

At least you didn't accuse him of being an Ultramarine! That'd be enough to warrant a divorce....

Surrounded by your glory, what will my heart feel? Will I dance for you Jesus, or in awe of you be still?
Will I stand in your presence, or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing, 'Hallelujah'? Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine...

You shout heretic/heresy in an absurd voice

if someone calls in the middle of a game you yell down the phone good god man im in the middle of a SIEGE!! (emphasis on siege)

whilst playing video games you think to yourself "wow this game feels like 40k" or "this game would be so awesome if there was a 40k mod for it"

you have the 40k mods for games

if someone throws something at you and it bounces off a bag or clothing without hurting you shout out " HAHA 3+ PLUS SAVE BIZNITCHES"

you have more than one army

you plan on getting an aquilla/chaos star tattoo

you have army custom dice

Thats all i can think of at the moment im personally guilty of all of them.

you've come up with a name and backstory for every model in your IG/Ork army.

you eat nothing but Ramen so you can buy more 40K stuff.

your first thought is, "For the/Death to the false" anytime someone says the word emperor.

you can't help but quote things from 40K in response to everyday occurances.

When you test out your schemes. On your arms.
When you think homework is making a list.
When you know D6 probabilities by heart.
When everything you see you relate to 40k ;)
When you calculate stats for EVERYTHING
When you get these. :'(

Okay, sorry for a bit of a necropost, but I had a really funny one come up recently.

For a CSM/CD player:

When someone tries to hand you a bible, you tell them that you have pledged your soul to the 4 ruinous powers of Chaos, then yell, "BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! *Evil laughter*"

No, I didn't do this, but damn would it have been funny! I'll do it the next time I get the chance 8)

When your ideal pet is either a Hormagaunt or a squig. ("Right, I'm off out, Hormie needs his walkies")

When you drive your car through pedestrianised areas yelling "TANK SHOCK!!!"

When you have a whole room of your house/flat dedicated to wargaming.

When you realise you're telling gaming stories at social functions to non-gamers.

When you turn down invitations to social functions in order to paint models.

When your only concept of females is either armoured battle-nuns or ridiculously proportioned elves.

When you read about real-life battles and think to yourself "if they had a Land Raider that would have been over days ago."

When you attempt to call down an orbital strike on someone who annoys you with an email to NASA.

When you answer "what's your ideal job?" with something in 40K ("Actually, I really want to be a Sentinel driver...")

At the end of the night when games are done, and people are asking your if you'll be their next week and your girlfriend says she can't give you a ride next saturday because of work and you say:

"thats ok, I'll just take the camaro"

and then the guy you just beat busts in with,

"wait, what?  You have a chimera?"
And though all I see is darkness...

when you start calling people you belief to be inferior "Mon keigh"

When somebody asks what church you go to and you say "The temple of khaine"

when you ask your parents for a melta gun on your birthday.

When you catch the flu and the first thing you do is say "Khaine damn that nurgle"

We passed upon the stairs. He spoke of was and when. Although i wasn't there, he said i was his friend. which came as a surprise

I spoke into his eyes "I thought you died alone, a long long time ago."

He laughed "Oh no, not me, we never lost control, you're face to face, with the man who sold the world"

When in ethics class you want to start reading the DE codex. :)
When people ask you to join their church the one thing you say is " do you have eviscerators?" :)
At a Renaissance festival, you are tempted to begin praying to sigmar or start a empire/bretonian army. :)

When you start getting homesick while on a crappy holiday in Tenerife, the first thing you do is find an internet cafe to log on to 40k online to check replies rather than phone or text home.   :P

When you can spectate a game and accurately judge what each player is hoping to do each turn. (Highly annoying I know though.)
When you can judge who will win the game and by what margin right after deployment... (I believe Starky and Moc, or Tauir has seen me do that, fun times).

When you start wearing headphones with Nurgle as the theme...:



My 7 Cents.
If you meet a bear named Sanctjud in the tavern, don't get into his van for candy.  I did once....it's sticky, salty, and really not very nice. :(

Just kidding, yes, I've seen you do that. 9 to 7 KPs you predicted the Moc vs. Guts game I remember?
