The "You know you're playing a lot of KSP when..." thread

[AlanP]

When you try to synchronize all you clocks to Kerbin time and can't figure out why there's more than six hours in a day!

Whenever I fly I think "could I land this plane?" and sometimes I convince myself that I could. Even if its a 747.

When I watch Scott Manley videos and realize that I cannot use my mouse to view the video at different angles...

[MarkusA380]

When watching SpaceX CRS-7 launch (and explode) on livestream and just thinking: "Cmon even I could have done better."

I know its not fair.

[Alchemist]

When you have such filenames as 2AMdamnit.sfs or OUch! My tooth!!!.sfs

[Candlelight]

When I watch Scott Manley videos and realize that I cannot use my mouse to view the video at different angles...

I know that feeling.

[Mikki]

When you start taking the contracts in the game a little bit too serious...:

I really hope SQUAD implements some real crazy careergame objectives, achieving these is absolutly awesome...

[Sharkman Briton]

... you look at an early bright star and think this must be Minmus

Me too kind of.

The other day I was in a car and looked out the front window, and saw a little speck/raindrop/tiny crack in the front window, I thought it was Minmus for a few seconds until I realized I was a complete weirdo.

When you have a dream that you're a kerbal on EVA. Right down to the yellow " Board" text appearing when you drift by a hatch.

When you make Kerman your capital on EU4

[viktor19]

Actually there is a town called Kerman in California

You know you play too much KSP when you have to remind yourself from time to time that Earth doesn't have a second moon.

[cubinator]

Once, I thought I saw Minmus in the sky out of the corner of my eye.

[Joshwoo70]

you think how to make a train / bus faster with MOAR BOOSTERS!!!

[livefree75]

-When you absolutely LOVE bouncing on a trampoline because of the zero-g.

[The Aziz]

..when it's 2AM and you're planning your next launch.

[p1t1o]

When you make Kerman your capital on EU4

"EU4"? Is this one of those "other games" I have heard vague rumors of? I assume you build rockets and fly around in space?

[LABHOUSE]

When you think of Jebediah when Jeb Bush is on television.

[Mister Dilsby]

When you watch Orange Is The New Black with your wife and can't stop pointing out that, (1) the real Piper was named Piper Kerman, not Chapman and (2) it makes no sense at all that the newbie prisoners are the ones who get orange suits.

Three things this week made me realise I'm hopelessly lost in the KSP Universe:

1. The Steam console always says "today" for "Last Played KSP" (since install I've never not been playing at midnight)

2. My mission planning notes, maps, action key lists and other KSP paperwork is in neatly sorted stacks, with colour coded paperclips. My utility bills and bank statement, on the other hand, are in a plastic shopping bag.

3. I saw aTV advert for an app that allows you to send a real postcard from an uploaded image. The first one I sent had Jeb in front of a lander with the words "Greeting from Minmus" on it (He complained about the lack of atmosphere, bit loved the views)

When I interpret a NASCAR driver moving to the inner lane of an oval track as decelerating to move into a faster orbit.

When I interpret a NASCAR driver moving to the inner lane of an oval track as decelerating to move into a faster orbit.

When I read "NASCAR" and think it's a space project.

[The_Rocketeer]

When Kerbol has set about 4 times in game since Sol set outside.

[Dman979]

When you nearly fail eleventh grade because of KSP.

True story, don't try this at home.

[adsii1970]

When you look at other people's screen captures and wonder why the mouse drag won't change the orientation of the image...

When you see an aircraft and think to yourself, "Yeah, I could build something like that..."

[Jovus]

When you blow off the rocket section of your graduate classical mechanics textbook because you already know what it's going to teach you.
