You know you're a coaster addict when...
-----------------
Who will build the 1st floorless woodie..called Leg Chopper.?.
- a general search on Amazon.com for "roller coaster" elicits your response of, "Got it, got it, want it, got it, need it, got it, got it,..."
- you anticipate your toddler's growth in certain milestones (36", 42", 48", 54")
- you can point out photo discrepancies in park marketing materials (That's a picture of Medusa, not B:KF....)
- the first thing you check when told of a business trip is how close the nearest park will be.
- you have a US map hanging in your office with little red stars marking all of the major parks' location (guilty as charged).
Give me time, I'm sure I can come up with more..

You Know you're a coaster addict when....
When you blast music in your car it sounds a lot like Riddler Revenge's queue.
You actually know, and care who sandor kernacs is.
When you're pulled over, you try and use one of 10 amusement park season passes as your ID.
When you ride a roller coaster ride ops know your age, place of birth, and your wife's name.
Your wife talks to her girlfriends about big woodies, she's refering to Coasters, not her husband.:)
-----------------
Saving a life is being calm, and comfortable!
...the ride ops stop liking you because they think you're stalking them.
...you know everything there is to know about today's top enthusiasts: Jeff Putz, Walt Schmidt, Andrew Hyde (blech), the real Chris Sawyer, etc...
...on opening day, you constantly say, "High! Haven't seen you in 188 days!" and "Hey, did you lose weight?" to employees.
...you're going into a parking garage, and you put your hands up going down the ramp (guilty as charged)
I got more coming...
-----------------
I am not the real Chris Sawyer...Or am I?...No.
Wow I don't know wether to be proud or depressed as to how many of these apply to me!
How about:
... your "study music" is a playlist of Nemesis, Oblivion and Millennium Force, Superman and Batman theme songs
... your notes are not only unreadable because of layout doodles, but you have more full page drawings than full pages of notes
... you sit in your computer chair playing RCT and try and move like you're on the coaster you're building just to figure out which way that inline twist should go so the transition is smooth (bringing on many weird looks from your roommates)

Anyone see the "You know you're addicted to Coasterbuzz" post? (Started by CedarpointNut/SeederPoint/"Chris Sawyer" - Now deleted) I will say you're a coaster addict when your coasterbuzz account is deleted more than 5 times and you still keep coming back!

You know you're a coaster (or RCT) addict when...
...you walk through an amusement park humming the RCT theme song
...as you walk through the park, you say things to yourself like:
- "I've been waiting in line for Shockwave for ages!"
- "This path is disgusting!"
- "Xcelerator looks too intense for me!"
- "Millenium Force was great!" and of course you do a little jump in the air at the exit.
