You Know You're A Trekkie If...

[Kriegermädchen]

You Know You're A Trekkie If:

Your computer no longer spell checks words like B'Elanna, Tuvok, Neelix, Borg, Talaxian, Kazon, etc.
You think B.Y.O.B. means "bring your own bat'leth."

You have ever considered getting Chakotay’s tattoo.

You walk around humming some of the themes.

Your bookcase has more than one shelf reserved for Star Trek books.

You own a Star Trek uniform.

The only books you read are Star Trek books.

You actually understand Stardates.

You wish that your closet was a holodeck.


Anyone else? I've got a bunch more, but I'll post them later.

[Troll Doll]

I really do own a Star Trek uniform (The Next Generation)...

 

[Kriegermädchen]

I really do own a Star Trek uniform (The Next Generation)...

*checks to see if anyone is watching* LOL, me too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mine's from TOS, though.

 

[Mirelys]

No uniform, but I do have a replica of Picard's tea cup lol...

You know you're a Trekkie if you've ever tried to write your own Star Trek episode. You analyze your friends' personalities by comparing them to Star Trek races. You've tried to learn Klingon. You wish there was a college class that taught Vulcan culture and religion. You've considered naming your child after a Star Trek character. You are named after a Star Trek character ::raises hand::

You know you're a trekkie if you own a communication insignia (like myself) and - unlike most people who have commented on it - You're darn proud to wear it!

Or if you've said "make it so!" (w/arm sweep!) to a friend and get confused looks in responce.

Or if you make yours: "Tea. Earl Grey. Hot." only because Picard did.

You know if you're a trekkie if....
-You divide your apartment in quadrants: Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Delta (which is your bedroom cuz you always get lost there)
-You want to name your next cat "Spot"
-As you slave over a hot stove you dream of replicators
-Barclay is your dream guy
-You wish you could have cool earrings like those Bajorians
-Only you would notice that almost all the alien species in Voyager have some kind of forehead ridge and you conclude that perhaps the writers wanted the viewer to know that they all must have evolved from the same delta quadrant species
-Transporters=instant trip to Paris.
- You correct others when they mispronounce "data"
-You take off work and fly half away across the country to attend that Star Trek convention that features one of the Ferengi in that Voyager episode where they were worshipped on that planet as gods.
-You must perform "umlat" on your spouse (I hope I got that spelled right).
_You know all the "Rules of Acquisition".

You know if you're a trekkie if....

...you name your silver Accord the USS Defiant!
...when driving you assign "warp factors" to different speeds. 10 MPH...1/4 impulse. 30 MPH...warp one. Etc.
...you pretend your remote control is a Type One phaser.
...you have a seperate shelf for Star Trek games.
...your VHS copy of Star Trek 2 is dogeared beyond belief.
...when you're stressed out you actually try "Plexing."
...you pretended you're using Katarian eggs when making cookies.
...when driving with friends they call you Captain. Passenger is First Officer, behind driver is Operations officer(or Weapons if you're old school!) and behind the passenger is Science officer.
...you say Qua'pla! at a friends wedding.

I just made these up! Some of them I already do...my car really is the Defiant. I really have tried Plexing.

When you approach your Dell...instead of using the mouse, you say "computer...".
You crave Gok
The second bedroom in your apartment would make a good holodeck
Joan Collins is famous ONLY for her role as Edith Keeler and nothing else.

Do that to the bottom of the mouse!

 

[Lovesonsofthundet]

You know you're a Trekkie when you say beam me up Scotty and you get amused looks
You want a transporter and a phaser badly
You wish you could give Vulcan nerve pinches when someone triggers you

 

[Yaaten]

You know you're a 'Trekkie' when you know that the correct term is actually 'Trekker', not 'Trekkie', and the fact that people keep getting this wrong really annoys you.

You know you’re a Trekkie when you can name all of the Constellation-class starships to appear in TNG…
