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

[zekes]

You know you play too much KSP when you think you see Minmus in the sky, and don't realize that its not real until after a heated argument with a friend.

hahaha I know i play too much when I say LKO more than LEO.

[turkwinif]

I've played so much KSP that I hit the timewarp keys on my keyboard if something's updating/downloading very slowly.

(no, seriously, I did that last night when downloading a game. I was very tired )

[Wampa842]

You know you play too much when you refer to forward and back as prograde and retrograde.

You know you play too much when you launch your pen from your school desk, and start calculating the spring's thrust and specific impulse.

You know you play too much when you look for the T button when your car gets out of control.

You know you play too much when you wonder why that man is so unnaturally coloured... shouldn't he be green?

You know you play too much when you read this whole thread and frantically try to find one that doesn't apply to you.

[razark]

when you call the nasa space center the ksc

What else would you call the Kennedy Space Center?

[Deadweasel]

when you call the nasa space center the ksc

Actually....

Kennedy Space Center... >_>

[FiresThatBurn]

When you look at a NASA rocket and think "Dang that thing needs more boosters!"....Yeah your not the only one I do it too.,.

[jimmyjameselvin]

When I attempt to land rockets upside down for fun

[Dunbaratu]

When you keep trying to rightclick on youtube videos to rotate the camera - regardless of whether or not they're KSP videos.

[Deadweasel]

When you keep trying to rightclick on youtube videos to rotate the camera - regardless of whether or not they're KSP videos.

LOL I've caught myself doing that with images in Photoshop too!

(of course, doesn't help that I actually *can* rotate 3D models in that thing too >_>)

[Thomas988]

When you sit in school thinking about your next space mission step-by-step.

[xzxvrx]

When your RC plane's wing comes off because the screws came loose by vibration from the engine in mid air, and the plane just stops and falls 30ft to the ground. By instinct you think its the Kraken. (This just happened to me not even half an hour ago)

[GamerMitch]

when you have to remember to say "Mars" instead of "Duna" to your friends.

[Sargent890]

When you look at a picture of Mars and think "Shouldn't its icecaps be bigger?"

[Deadweasel]

You know what, I just realized something that hasn't come up yet in FORTY-SEVEN pages....

Is there even such a thing as too much KSP???!

I know, mind-blowing, isn't it? I'll give ya a moment or five.

[Lohan2008]

Yes, I too have to stop typing LKO instead of LEO.

Everyone else wonders why you are so excited about Higg's Boson, I mean REALLY excited,,, you know what I am talking about (right?)

You count down the days; hours; minutes til China's lunar rover lands. <just so you can critique it>

You went to Halloween dressed as a HUMAN.

At start of letters you type: "dear space command"

[larsmaehlum]

I ended up sitting outside in the cold weather watching Jupiter for way too long yesterday, and I kept thinking the color was off somehow.. I think I might have spotted a moon with my telescope.

[Superfluous J]

...when you hit "Snooze" for the 2nd time, and wonder why time passed since the first time you hit it. You're *sure* you hit "Revert Flight." Just happened to me.

[gre8]

I had this huge thermodynamics test to study for but I was to busy planning my probe mission to Eve.

I also noticed retrograde, prograde, periapsis and apoapsis became standard words on my vocabulary.

[Xetalim]

When you make mistakes like calling Jupiter Jool.

Calling the moon Mün.

Calling Mars Duna.

(Being a KSP freak counts too)

[team.leit]

Seeing the word United and thinking it reads Untitled

[victory143]

Telling my classes about a triple mun-minnmus gravity assist.

[Commissioner Tadpole]

When you make this:

[agentKmurph]

You know you play too much KSP when you should be doing your calculus homework and are instead posting a reply to a thread about how you play too much KSP when [x condition] applies. Also perfectly acceptable to replace calculus homework with physics, or english, or indeed any sort of school work including college apps.

Yeah senior year is hard when Kerbal is always around to distract me.

[NQMT]

[me at school in science] "Hey Ms, why is Jool orange?"

[teacher] "This is Jupiter..."

[me] "...oh. Right."

When your friend is telling you about the guy she's really in love with, and how they're in different phases in life and missed each other, and you think how she has enough delta-v to reach him, but she started burning too soon...

(since I told her that she doesn't stop teasing me)
