  • Public

You carry a stake, just in case

You find yourself quoting the show and laugh hystericallly at the quotes while

Your friends stare you like they don’t know you

After coming home and seeing your vcr didn’t tape (damn vcrs!!) you break down in tears

You patrol

You wear crosses

You get the preist to bless you’re drinking water

You plan your schedule around the show

You can’t even begin to comprehend how someone has never seen Angel

No one, I mean no one interupts you or calls you on Monday nights for fear of what you might do

No calls you after Angel because of your ranting

You never invite people into your home without doing the mirror check first

You keep stakes, holy water, crosses, around your house

You watch every scene over & over until you can prove that Angel smiled at Cordy

The highlight of your month is getting your Angel tapes in the mail

You buy everything that has the word Angel on it, or the brand name is Angel.

People *think* the little shirts, frames, pillows, etc that say Angel are not refereing to the show. But you know better.

When you’re not watching Angel you’re on the internet looking at Angel stuff

Your parents actually ground you from Angel

You find yourself wondering why you don’ slip into vamp face when you get angry.

You daydream about marrying Angel…What do you mean he’s not real!!

You turn down a date with the hottest guys cause it’s Angel Night.

Every morning you wake up & yell TGIM!!

You try to pursuade your librarian that he’s your watcher & you’re his slayer.

You stake everyone in dark alleys wearing a lot of black

You try to justify this to the police

You couldn’t pay your apartment bills because you bought Cordelia’s entire wardrobe (God that girl has a lot of clothes for being poor!)

You write fanfic

Whenever you go somewhere new you look for sewer exits

You sleep with a stake under your pillow

When you’re apartment hunting your first question is always, “Has there been a lot of “sucicides” here?”

When you need to use the phone you yell, “Dennis, phone!” and can’t figure out why the phone doesn’t float to you.

Your horrified of people who’ve never heard of Angel, yes, there are some unfortunate ones out there

When you go to LA you ask the operator where Wolfram & Heart is

As far as you are concerened, Angel, Cordelia, Gunn, Wes, Fred, Lindsey, Lilah, and everyone else are real people

You look for the Caritas while in LA

All of the actors on the show are shown a picture of you and told to stay away from you at all costs

You have a nervous break down when re-run season comes

Your refer to your life before Angel as BA (before Angel), The dark age, or BISTL (Before I saw the light)

You cast the spells you see on the show & can’t for the life of you figure out why they might not work

You answer to the name Cordelia

You need four Angel sets, 1 to put aside, 1 to watch, and the other two for when the other goes bad

Before you umm…get some action you make sure your boyfriend isn’t trying to impregenate you with his master’s demon spawn

You steer clear of stages at kareokee bars. Wouldn’t want to be sucked into another dimension, now would you?

Life without Angel seems meaningless

You discuss the show with people as if the events happened in real life

You blame your migraines on those mind-numbing visions

You position those posters in your room so Angel & Cordelia are facing each other

You kiss your posters good night

You’re not afraid of dark city alleys cause you know if you run into some vamps Angel will swoop in & rescue you

You refer to David’s wife as “That other Woman”

David has a restraining order against you

When Cordelia got her hair cut, coicinedently you got your mid-back length hair cut too.

You interact with the TV while watching

You rant at the TV when you don’t like what you’re seening (ex. Darla, grrr)

You laugh, you clap, you cry while watching Angel.

You use “You know you’re obsesed..” lists as a checklist

You read obsession lists and realize you’ve done most of the things

You name your children after the characters, Angel , Cordelia

When filling out job applications for previous or other jobs you put demon slaying & helping the hopeless

You find yourself ending sentences with “____ much ?”

You abstain from sex for fear of losing your soul. (Okay, that one might be somewhat normal).

You spell the word “gun” with two n’s.

When singing along to Simon and Garfunkel, you find instead of “Cecilia” you’re singing “Cordelia”.

You’ve called someone a “poof”.

You find yourself singing “Mandy” because Angel thinks the words are pretty.

Walking in a cemetery makes you think romantic thoughts.

When things are good, they’re five by five.

You’ve often found yourself wondering just how a vampire can maintain an erection since bloodflow is required, and their hearts don’t beat. If they can, is it for as long as they want it?

You have to bite your tongue to keep yourself from making Angel related comments during work.

You actually make Angel related comments and wait for someone to acknowledge you, but no one knows what the hell you’re talking about.

I got this here
