- you scan ads in newspapers and magazines to see what domains people are using, and judge whether they are good or bad

- when you practice spelling bee words with your kids, you look at the word lists and pick which ones you would like to own in .com

- your daydreams consist of 'what if' scenarios, like going back to the 1990's or 2001/02 and doing what Frank Schilling did.

...when an uninformed friend asks you if a particular domain name is available, you say "taken" before they finish the sentence.

-when you watch every TV commerical and you wait to see if they plug the website.

Or point out the relative values of each domain that appears in TV commercials to everyone in the room, boring them to tears in the process.....

Here's my favorite:

No matter where you are or wo you're with, if you here any of these words, you perk up like a wolf waiting for the kill and lose total track of who you're with or what the just said.

domain
domain name
. anything
website
computer
internet
dnforum ;)

... when you see a domain come up in the drop list and think, "Wow! I used to own that!" and then realize you forgot to renew it on time.

You own the .com domain name of your last two ex girlfriends :smile:

You don't have a "real job" just domain parking / buying & selling domains

It takes a LONG TIME to explain EXACTLY what it is you do (I say "online realestate")

You own your own name in .com, .net, .org (Chris - net)

You have recurring nightmares of not renewing your best domain names only to find them then being auctioned off at snapnames or pool for $xxx,xxx ...lol

You automatically know the best typos of any site along with it's approx overture rating & traffic

You have the top keyword bids memorized from google & yahoo lol

you hit it off with a girl in a bar, things are looking seriously promising, then you get into too much detail about what it is you do, and then basically talk yourself out of a nail that night.
then end up munching the wrong sort of kebab ;), at 3am while surfing dnforum when u get back
allegedly :smilewinkgrin: :-#:

You insist on tasting everything before you buy. I once licked the hood of a brand new car.
