Tiz time for a GAME. blaugh

There are certain characteristics of Beatlemania that we all share....or even that just some of us share. Either way, it's our quirks that make us so loveable, right?

So you know you're a Beatles fan when....

You refer to your favorite as "your Beatle".

You've written school-related papers on the Beatles phenomenon.

Working the Beatles into everyday conversation is not only amusing, but commonplace.

You can't bring yourself to watch the last video of the Anthology because you know how it ends, and you don't like it.

When you hear certain words and immediately you think of a song that goes with that word.

Examples
Sun; Here comes the Sun OR Good Day Sunshine (depending on your mood)
Nowhere; Nowhere Man.
Sitting; I am the Walrus.
Forever; Strawberry Fields Forever.
Together; All Together Now.
Too much; It's All Too Much.
Older; When I'm 64
Face; I've Just Seen a Face
Book; Paperback Writer
Children; Lady Madonna
Sad; Hey Jude
Hello; Hello, Goodbye
Together; Come Together

Etc! This happens to me all the time. XD

When you try to put a little bit of Beatle related thing in your school report, art project, etc. and get all hyper because of that.

lol that I do.

@flanningcustard: Every single presentation I did last school year (I didn't do any yet) had a Beatle Song or Beatles solo song on it. Only 2 of 5 presentations had a solo Beatle song. It was on Feminism (teacher assigned each group a section from the chapter) and I chose John's "Woman is the #### of the World." I did one on vinyl records and I used a clip from Instant Karma and Lucy in the sky with diamonds. My first one was on LSD and it was very trippy and I played She Said She Said and Tomorrow Never Knows in their entirety for a slideshow. Quite Awesome!

@xKuro Tsutax: I do that all the time. When I hear a phrase or a word form a song I start to sing it in my head.

@color-me-wretched: I've done everything you mentioned. I'm not even lying. People tell me I'm obsessed with them. xD

-Your body temperature rises whenever you come across something Beatle-y that you weren't expecting.
Seriously. I started sweating in class the other day when my History teacher mentioned Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. sweatdrop

-You spend several hours a day talking about them on this board. *cough*

-Your voice gets deeper and takes on a Liverpuddlian accent when you talk about them. redface My History teacher pointed that out last week.

-You sing very loudly in public places whenever you hear a Beatles song, and return to composed and polite silence afterwards as if nothing had happened.

-You get a Beatles-related tattoo. Or want to get one.

-You look in the mirror and try to make your eyes as long and narrow as Johns or your eyebrows as perfectly arched as Paul's.

-You joined Choir in the vain hope that you might be able to sing a Beatles song.

-They're in your dreams.

-You want to approach strangers simply because they have something Beatle-y about them.

-You get dressed in your closet because the many posters in your room are watching you. Or: You get dressed in the middle of your room because they're watching you.

-You are reluctant ever to have children because you're so afraid that they won't be Beatles fans. xd

-You've chosen The Beatles over a friend who doesn't like them.

More later; dinner!

About the school paper one - in 2004-2005, I wrote a research paper on John Lennon and Peter Max. If I remembered more, I'd say, suffice it to say that it took forever to write the rough draft because of listening to Lennon's music and looking at Max's art for long periods of time. For Christmas that year, Mom gave me a Peter Max print/painting and a Herschfeld print of John Lennon in front of the Statue of Liberty because I'd gone totally bonkers. XD *Remembers when we had money*

Which reminds me!

~You have several things of Beatles- or former-Beatles-related artwork and pictures in your room.

Phantasmagoria: I get dressed in the middle of the room, but I feel embarrassed because all the pictures in my room are watching. :stress:

-You have an entire shelf dedicated to The Beatles.

-You refuse to join the Beatlelinks.net because you're afraid you'll be thought of as a noob. sweatdrop

-You feel guilty taking a Beatles CD out of the player and replacing it with a non-Beatles CD.

-You'd probably consider yourself a lesbian if it weren't for a Beatle. xp

-You'd probably consider yourself a straight if it weren't for a Beatle. xp

You browse Ebay everyday in hopes of finding a Beatle item you don't own

When you meet a person who has a name mentioned in one of the Beatle's song and you begin singing said song when you talk to said person.

(Like I do to everyone!)

When you and your boyfriend talk more about the Beatles than your relationship.

When you call your boyfriend John and he calls you Yoko.

Simillar to that:
You've listened to a CD/playlist of the Beatles so many times that when one song is over you automatically start singing the next, even if said song hasn't started yet. (I always do this, and if the CD or playlist is on shuffle I feel like an idiot when I start singing the wrong song. xd )
