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

When you try to press M to open map view...in the ISS HDEV livestream. True story.

[WillThe84th]

When you find yourself casually humming the KSP theme song during a standardized test...

Yeah...

[StarStreak2109]

When you buy shampoo for the wife and think... WTF... Kerbal Essences????????

[Pax Kerbana]

When everything relates somehow to Delta-V.

When you find yourself explaining orbital mechanics just so you can talk about space.

When you think about space everyday, and need KSP to get the space out of your system.

I'm using BDA setting numbers in my passwords so I will never forget them....Almost sounds sad...

When you think of how NASA has yet to go to Mars, and how you've "Conquered all of the Kerbol system", after which you realize that unlike Kerbals, you cannot strand Humans on other planets with no food or water, immense radiation, and the on and off electricity because you "forgot the batteries". 

[Kerbin vonKerbal]

I mentally refer to hitting the brakes in my car as 'burning retro'. 

[Jhawk1099]

When you should be studying for your math final but normal math gets to boring so you start comparing asparagus staging to regular staging as far as Delta-V goes. Actually that final is in three days I should get on that

I was writing an email to my teacher for a school project, after the email is done, i pressed F5 to save it...

When you type "d" into google search, and it automatically fills in with "elta-v map".

Whenever something seems really unrealistic in a dream, instead of realizing that you're in a dream, you just think "It'll be fixed in the next update."

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

You start walking around in a slow, bouncy, astronaut walk

You say "Roger Command" after someone talks to you

Your continually looking for places to plant a flag in your neighborhood

You wish there was a quick save button in life...

When you accidentally refer to SpaceX as Rockomax when discussing real life space exploration.

Well, close enough, they both end with X.

[qromodynmc]

While arguing with friends about space i confused mars with duna, he was like wtf is duna. ^^

[cubinator]

When you do the math instead of aborting the mission over a forgotten KER part.

[StrandedonEarth]

Coming around the on-ramp onto a local bridge with a long, somewhat steep climb to the middle of the bridge, I always get a little radio crackle in my head "Go for main engine burn!" After winding out 3rd gear to the top of the bridge I can smell the catalytic converter cooking...

When you try to throttle up a Falcon 9 while watching landing footage. Or when Steam's counter ticked over 3500hrs today

When you're friend asks "What kind of Mos Eisely cantina alien is a 'Jool'?"

[adsii1970]

Or when you are playing other games and try to rotate the camera focus with your mouse...

[Boganaut]

When an astronomy and space app on my phone shows me a message regarding the anniversary of an Apollo mission and I think "They misspelt Mun! Oh... hang on."

[FirstSecondThird]

Your know you're playing too much KSP when you start seeing everyone as Kerbals, even game characters as Kerbals.

 

KERBALS... KERBALS EVERYWHERE!!!!

[Ippo]

"Diesel engines are a bit less powerful but a bit more efficient" starts sounding like "Diesel engines have lower TWR but higher ISP"

[GarrisonChisholm]

- when I was driving to work and got rear-ended solidly at a stoplight, and after getting out to see the damage was only scuffing and paint scratches concluded mentally;

"Huh, must have been less than 6m/sec..."

[Mjp1050]

When you mistake these for Rockomax parts:

[KAL 9000]

When you turn into a Kerbal in your dreams (true story, it's actually really cool)

[cubinator]

When you are making a Google Slides presentation and haven't named it yet, you see that it is called "Untitled Space C-- oh, nvm, it's "Untitled Presentation" not "Untitled Space Craft". Well, then I'll name it Untitled Space Craft!
