You know you're a geek when... (complete the sentence)

You know you're a geek when you actually spend time compiling a comprehensive list of all the Jedi slaughtered as a result of Order 66.
 
You know you're a geek when you find yourself blubbering like a schoolgirl while watching Endgame.

Kim was right, it was about the journey. :(

Well sure. Endgame was when they brought Jane back, they defeated Clark and his goons, and took back Earth. It was easily one of the best B5 episodes.

no, he's a villain.

So, at times, is the Doctor.

Besides the 11 (including McGann), there's also the robot duplicate of the First Doctor, there's the alt-First Doctor from Five Doctors, there's the Valyard (which is the evil/dark side of the Doctor sometime between his 12th and final incarnation), we also cannot forget about Jefferson aka "The Next Doctor", and an argument could be made for for the robot shape-shifting Eleventh Doctor in Utah.

Off the top of me head.

I'll invite the wrath of every old-school Whovian on the board and bring up the fact that Peter Cushing has also played the Doctor.

(Mind you, I have no idea if those films were televised or if they were shown in theatres. All I know is that most DW fans consider them apocryphal. I've never actually seen them.)

Yeah, but if we count Peter Cushing - as in, Doctors in medias other than television - that brings in a whole host of new possibilities.

Rather than list them, I'll just link em ...

You know you're a geek when you recognise someone from Star Trek who was only in one episode and in make up by their voice alone in something completely different.
 
you know you're a geek when you notice that some of the contractors who work in your hangar wear blue shirts and some wear red, and you won't get in the elevator when 3 redshirts are in there. Don't like those odds...
 
You know you're a geek when the pressing issue of the time is:

Sebastian Shaw? Or Hayden Christensen?
 
You know you're a geek when you friend vaguely describes a Star Trek episode they saw the other night and you can tell them the episode name, stardate, the season it aired and the list of guest stars.

And correct all the inaccuracies in their description of the episode.

And tell them what later episodes reference it.....about this time, they should be trying to change the subject...

You know you are a geek when you walk several miles in 105 degree weather to pick up some comic books. In fairness, I could have drove, but I wanted some exercise. I got exercise, and then some :lol:
 
You know you're a geek when...

Half the status updates in your Facebook newsfeed are about the possible discovery of the Higgs-Boson.
 
You know you're a geek when you actually know the difference between the Big-head and Small-head Han Solo action figure... and you go out of your way to buy both.

I did that with my Con Law prof when he got Wrath of Khan totally wrong, then looked to me for confirmation. Of course, I said he was wrong. Yeah. The next class, when he commented on this, I told him there was going to be a marathon that weekend, culminating in WoK, and that he might want to watch. The NEXT week, I offered him my DVD copy. He said, "No...ooh! Director's cut!" The class reaction generally was, "They're at it again, arguing about some geek thing."
 
You know you're a geek when you have a near life-sized poster of Tennant's Doctor hanging in your living room.
