...Someone asks you to go to the market with them and you say "Oh yes I could do with some more Gold Chrome":)👍

Feel free to contribute to the thread.

When you try to log onto your email account with your GTP username and password (I've done it before quite a few times).
 
When you go to the GT5 Marketplace and ask for a Premium Membership.
 
When you wonder why astronomers have not found life when gt planet is full of life.
 
...you make billions of avatars and decorate profile pages... not for yourself, but for other people too, voluntarily. :rolleyes:
 
When you seriously consider having the GTplanet logo tattooed to you.
 
You reply to a text message and say it's later not l8r.
And then the person who you corrected, replies by correcting parts of the message you sent in bold. Then you both start nitpicking everything each of you say until one of you wins or both start ignoring each other for a while before another discussion erupts in the not so distant future. (*Waits to be corrected :sly:*)

haitch40, if you corrected a GTP member first, then you will have to prepared to reply to other people who will tell you to stop being a grammar nazi ;). I only correct people when they keep on writing in text speak or spelling something wrong. Ridiculous spelled as rediculous bugs me.
 
When I haven't text-spoke in 4 years. Even though I wasn't a member back then, I was still hanging around. I remember on a test 4 years ago I wrote "U" not "You". :facepalm:

I'm glad I found a place like this on the internet.
 
When you here about the Great Famine of Ireland and you wonder why he left no trace of indigo.
 
When you don't realize your legs are numb from sitting to long reading and look like an idiot trying to walk around at work afterwards.
 
When gtp is your homepage (guilty) and every one in the office waits for 'shem's daily funny' which is just pictures stolen from The Funny Picture thread and posted on the company's internal messager system.

Also when you have subscribed to so many threads you lose track of some of them!
 
When you've had a dream involving almost entirely about GTPanet.

I really did. I made some stupid post that would potentially get me a perma-ban, and the first thing I did in the morning was go to edit it out, only to realize the entire conversation never took place, and it was all a dream.
It's happened twice.
 
When you stop frequenting the GT5 section of the forum & hang out in the rumble strip all day.
 
When you can correctly guess what picture/ car will come up at the top of the page before the page loads. (Sometimes theres an SLS AMG, and sometimes other cars by the logo.)

That happened to me too :scared:

When you think Famine is a human encyclopedia.

? Pretty much. I know I've been using GTP too long when I hear the word "famine" and think "indigo". Or if you see a car much faster than yours at the stoplight and call it a 200 point race.
