If anyone cares, here's the list I posted at Dark Horse for my birthday.
June, 2004.
And now, in honor of my birthday, yet another batch of those terrors of the forum...,
You know you're a hopeless Oh! My Goddess fan when....
1. You have "Shiho Sakakibara" on your spell checker.
2. You feel confident spelling "Yggdrasil, Gungir, and Shinnentai" without checking.
3. Japanese foriegn exchange students avoid you because they don't want to deal with another, "Just one more question..."
4. You consider Pocky to be erotic. (Not necessarily restricted to OMG fans.)
5. You scribble "You know you're a hopeless OMG fan when..." ideas on your desk pad at work/school.
6. The debate over whether to watch OMG OAVs sub-ed or dub-ed has ceased to concern you because you've already memorized all of the dialog either way.
7. You've been involved in an arguement over which is the better robot, Banpei or R2D2.
7.5 You cared who won the arguement.
8. You've spent more than 10 minutes debating over whether its Welsper or Velsper and you don't work for Dark Horse. (Happy now, Mr. Editor?)
9. You can place an image of Belldandy within three issues of when it was drawn just by looking at her eyes.
10. You have a bumper sticker on your car that reads, "W.W.U.D." ("What Would Urd Do.") (S and B are also acceptable.)
11. The local Wiccan's have a restraining order against you after that unfortunate incident when you crashed the "Greeting the Goddess" ceremony you read about on their website.
(And what's worse, you didn't get to greet any goddesses!)
12. The fish logo on the back of your car was drawn by Kikuko Inoue.
13. You know how many tufts of hair spring up from the center of Belldandy's forehead without looking.(**)
14. An internal debate over whether to buy the latest Oh! My Goddess or Blade Of The Immortal Trade Paperback has led to violence.
15. Your Goth friends want to know who this Mara chick is you keep comparing their clothes to.
16. You know the words to the Nekomi Institute of Technology Motor Club anthem. (Yes, it's a real song and was released on an AH! Megami-sama DVD. Translations are available. From Nekomi Kodai - Seichou: Jidoushabuu Buka, The Motorcycle Club Song)
17. You bought a programmable doorbell so you could make it play the goddess theme from the OAV.
18. You rate conventions by how many OMG cosplayers you see.
(** the accepted answer is 6, but it could be considered 8 if you include the two that sweep down along her face.)
Anyone want me to post the 30 or so that Dark Horse didn't print?

Well, I do talk kindly to my modes of transportation. I use less kind language on the operators of other modes of transportation, particularly during the morning rush hour, but I digress.
I have noticed that my old truck runs a lot better after I've done work on it. I think older vehicles develop a kind of personality, and when the owner actually does his/her own repairs and maintenance, they notice it. A hired mechanic is indifferent, all he cares about is a successful repair so he gets paid. But if you put a little of your own sweat into your car/truck/motorcycle/bicycle/sailboat/etc., then you may find it to be more rewarding, and not just financially, for those of us whose modes of transportation are out of warranty. Just my two yen.

Sorry to bump, but I've got a couple.
You know you're too addicted to OMG when:

It used to be called Hellspawn, and misbehaved a lot so I don't think it liked the name! ;D That sounds about right, my old Win95 P1 used to be called "S**tbox" and it crashed like crazy...but when I done a few upgrades on it and renamed it "Urd" she started behaving. Weird but true  Altho "Belldandy" hasn't given me any trouble at all (I blame Bill Gates for that instead), she must like the name Oh and my PS2 is named Rind-Sama |

Well, I named my PC Rind-sama mainly because it's the most powerful machine I've got. |

I laughed outloud when I first read some of them! ;D
