You're too scared to walk on any square tiles in case arrows fire at you from either wall
whenever I walk on a tiled floor I really have to fight the urge to hop from one to the other, avoiding the darker ones.:D

You know you're an Indy freak (the best kind) when...

You work out by crouching slightly, yelling "KNEEL!" and rolling headfirst in a perfect imitation of Indy's escape from "The Breath of God." (SO guilty of this one... it's pretty much the only exercise I ever do of my own free will, but it works rather well.)

When forced to run, imagining yourself as Indy fleeing the Hovitos around a school track helps (a lot).

You plan on naming my puppy Short Round and calling him Shorty.

Your first daughter's name is going to be Marion (spelled with an "o"). I've actually always liked the name Marion, but seeing Ravenwood was the clincher and my future husband will just have to deal with it. ;)

You periodically get into debates with your friend about how much Indy trumps MacGyver (and you know you're right no matter what).

You buy several Snickers bars and M&Ms just for the packages (but cheerfully discover that the Snickers have coconut...mmmm.... and that the M&Ms have cool Indy-tastic designs).

You are going to BE Marion Ravenwood at the midnight showing on May 21.

You notice that the school librarian is drinking Dr. Pepper and her soda can has Indiana Jones on it... you beg her to drink the rest, then swipe the can while she's not looking. (Oops... If you're reading this, Ms. Messenger, then I'm sorry. Couldn't resist.)

You can recite the whole trilogy on demand and have amused yourself during standardized tests by writing out the scripts, character analyses, and soundtrack titles for ALL the Indy films.

You greet your little brother with "Junior? Is that you?"

You accidentally broke Mom's vase, but then refused to let her clean it up until you identified the cross-sections.
:eek:

You tend to lapse into Elsa's Austrian accent or Henry's Scottish one without even noticing.

Whenever someone says "Giddy as a schoolboy," you immediently launch on a tirade about Attilla the Professor.

You're wary about stepping in puddles of light without waving your hand first.

You actually want to learn Latin to see if all "J"s really start with an "I".

When your history teacher absentmindedly (and unwisely) hums Indy's theme song, you jump out of your chair and start grilling him on his favorite/least favorite parts, characters, etc. until he never wants to teach you history again because you are constantly bringing up Nepal, and Hatay, and Ankara, and Berlin, and Shanghai, and, and, and....

And, best of all...
You belong to the Raven, and you're a total and complete Indiana Jones freak (which is the best kind of freak). :whip:

When you imagine Indiana Jones characters naked for your sexual fantasies.

When you desperately want an Indiana Jones outfit.

When you want to hug Harrison Ford and would tackle him to the ground when you meet him.

When you sing the Indiana Jones theme loudly and randomly in the street decked in full Indy gear.

When you think of the song "I'm in love with a stripper" and then think to yourself, "I want Harrison Ford to be a stripper!"

If Harrison Ford walked down the street, you would... do many interesting things to him.

:

you know your one when you naturally put your hand on your chin as if your looking at the idol while you surf the net


Only upon reading your post have I just realised that I actually do that!!! :eek:

Years ago I decided to name my dog Indy...although as yet I still don't have a dog.

You shout throgh the mail box "we are going to die"
...(We have them in our front doors in the UK)

You take the last beer from the fridge as though it were the Golden Idol.

You make a crate for the hasbro ark out of popsicle sticks and make your self ill eating all the popsciles and making other eat them too. Then as you couldn't face the last one you melted it under the hot tap so you had enough sticks to start building the crate:eek:

You hate snakes. You hate em!

You say "I dunno, I'm makin' this up as I go." whenever your fixing stuff t doing DIY and the Gf asks how's it going?

You say to your kids whilst in expensive shops (waving the Ford finger).."Don't touch anything!"

Some mouth chav/kid is giving it verbal..you imagine him with a sword and you with a gun...

- When you're willing to pay a few thousand bucks and fly 15,000 km's to go on the ride at Disneyland (again!).

-When you have a whole Youtube playlist of Indiana Jones videos in your Youtube account.

-When you're the token "Indyfan" customer who actually buys all the Indy stuff, and all the stuff you can't afford is still on sale at the comic book store.

-When you quote historic facts after watching Young Indy.

-When you're actually on the Raven working out Indy's future family tree on the YIJC table.

-When you're still arguing over the merits/atrocities of KOTCS with a film buff.

You don't post threads like "Tom Selleck would have made a better Indy"

:mad:

...or you don't write demanding letters to Nintendo, and you don't write "Indi is best", when every geek knows that "Indy is best"! :gun:
