This is a ridiculous thread.

There is no such thing as too much KSP.

That is why the thread is titled 'playing a lot'.

We all know that 'playing too much' would be ridiculous.

 

Back on topic:

You know you are playing a lot when you wake up at your computer and discover that you successfully completed a capture burn that you do not remember starting.

When, while studying Ionic Equilibrium, you see the dissociation constant of sparingly soluble salt, which is represented as Ksp , and immediately think about your first Duna mission, which just launched yesterday

 

p.s. this incident happened to me today lol

While sitting in the gym, you see three girls sitting in a triangle tossing a ball around, and they have their legs out as to keep the ball in their circle.

Then you think, "That is a perfect representation of a perfect keosynchronous comms network with three satellites and their FOVs."

Just happened.

And now for something different:

You know you're involved in the My Little Pony fandom too much when:

you come to the KSP forum, see the top post, 'Docking' and boggle: why are they discussing trimming horse tails on KSP forum?

When you start using the KSP planet names when talking about the real life planets.

When you dream that you are Jeb landing on the Mun. Every single night for a week.

When you neglect your sleep to try to plan a Cassini Huygens mission. And then dream about it later.

... when your gf gives you the yeah-you-know-what-I-want-look, but you keep playing ksp

When my wife gives me that look I tell her to make her own tea (and keep playing KSP)

You wonder where your neighbour got a hold of a set of Mk II Illuminators for their patio.

You then wonder if you can pick up rocket engines at Bunnings these days...

when from the the 4th floor you see a fuel truck passing and wonder why they put shielded docking port on the top of the tank

[Kertech]

I went to my friends lecture (mathematician) on "an introduction to orbital mechanics" and managed to answer more questions than most people present despite technically being a medic... 

 

Worried the the lecturer might now notice if I stop turning up!! Get kicked off a course I don't attend...

I live in Florida, only a couple hours from NASA, and we get regular launch updates on our local news channels and websites.

But the other night I saw a headline that just said, "Delta rocket launching at KSC tomorrow"

And I thought, "WHAT???  That's not possible... Oh, wait... Kennedy Space Center... yeah, OK... Kennedy... opps..."  

I play way too much....

I thought the same when I heard that the Kennedy was hit by Hurricane M. I saw that and was like "THEY HAVE HURRICANES IN KSP NOW?!?!?!??!? MUST PLAY MORE!!!!!"
