...when you're sitting in an Honors class in your university, learning about the effects of social drinking and signs of alcoholism, and all you can think is "Dammit, Trudy! What about the pineapple?!"

...When you're desperately trying to get "You Just Got Slapped" out of your head while at work.
ETA: Also, when The Great Pumpkin is on TV and you have to work really hard not to say, "Oh, The Slutty Pumpkin is on!" to the other person in the room. *g*

...when you try to think up nicknames for "Victoria" and the first thing you think is, "Ictor!...it's probably not Ictor."

...You say "awesome" way too much.
You also have dreams about the show. (Last Monday, I had a dream that Marshall and Lily conceived a baby after "Not a Father's Day." They had a crib from The Sims 2, which I also seem to be obsessed about.)

... you giggle and do a mental *salute!* when your mom talks about general maintenance for her new car. Or when you get a phone call at work from Major Supply.
... when you're alone, you actually do salute.

...you use your Facebook status to announce that you feel HIMYM is the single best sitcom in the history of television, and then proceed to waste time on drawn out, bitter verbal wars with anyone who dares to disagree with you.
...after seeing just ONE episode, you immediately buy the S1-S3 DVDs with money that you don't actually have for, like, food and then proceed watch the entire series in record time, because you avoid unnecessary activities like, say, leaving the apartment.

...you actually try the drink made up by the "slutty pumpkin" because it sounded kinda good.
...also, you might have made yourself some Eggs Marshall the other morning! ;)

It kinda did! My boss gave me a mini bottle of Kahlua, so I thought why not? I think you could definitely play with the ratio of Kahlua to root beer; I had the mini bottle, and filled a low tumbler with root beer. I actually liked it quite a bit! ;)

...when one of your male friends is im-ing you while he is in class about the two hot girls he wants to hit on and uses the word "what" in the "what up" context, you immediately inform him that, in your mind, Neil Patrick Harris was sitting next to him, high-fived him, and then proceeded to wingman out for him. He didn't get the joke.
...you refuse to respond to any come-ons from guys at the wedding you went to last weekend because wedding hook-ups never work out. You also don't eat the cake because the wedding was in another state and if you were going to find the best cake of your life, it needs to be a bit more accessible than ten hours away.

That is going too far. No TV show on earth is good enough to stop you eating free, delicious cake. :)You also don't eat the cake

Where are these weddings you've gone to with good cake? I always end up at the weddings where the bride and groom payed more attention to what was going in the bar than what was going on the cake table so that the cake tastes gross. My HIMYM philosophy was just an excellent side effect of that.

...you and your favorite HIMYM-watching friend let each other know that you've watched the episode through your facebook statuses every Monday night. One week, it was, "Laura's cuteness interferes with her message"; the next week, it was "Quinn dances more than you know."

...you and your best friend are discussing baby names (don't laugh, because if you're a chick, you've done this at least once) and she brought up that she wanted to name a girl "Ronnie" for a derivative for "Veronica" and before you can stop yourself, you've blurted out "Why not name her Ictor for Victoria?". She didn't get it.
...you notice on Facebook (or, as I like to call it, the "accidental stalker's paradise") that one of your friends has changed her status to proclaim her new obsession with HIMYM. You respond appropriately ("NPH is a god."), but are horrified when she tries to use the infamous "legendary" split but cuts the word at the "leg" syllable instead of the "en." I spent a full two minutes with my mouth open in shock. I mean, did she not pay attention to the episodes?! Barney never says "This is going to be leg....wait for it...endary!" That just sounds stupid. Then I realized how ridiculous I sounded, corrected her nicely, and decided to tell no one except you guys about that sad moment.
...you self-high-five pretty much daily.
...you're sick with a cold and when someone was in the room with you while you were hacking up a phlegm-ball, you notice her disgusted face and reply "I'm just overflowing with awesome and needed to get some out."
Sorry...I forgot one.
...you find a picture of the "50 Reasons To Have SEX" napkin and make it your background on your laptop. You read it to basically everyone you know, even your computer professor when she is trying to get you connected to her network.

...when you work children's birthday parties at a rock climbing gym, and spend the entire shift humming Christmas carols. To the unsuspecting child, the tune sounds like a normal, innocent Christmas carol. But you know in your head that it's Barney's naughty lyrics you're singing. Hee.
...also, when you've started high-fiving far more than you used to.
...when you are more interested in a fictional relationship than your own relationships (BroTP all the way).

"The Goat"?
...or "Nothing Good Happens After 2 A.M.", I suppose... how long ago did this friend start watching? :) I'd put my money on "The Goat", though.

...when you tell your night school teacher that her lower back tattoo is a "tramp stamp" and everyone in class looks at you like you've not only insulted her, but lost your mind.
*hangs head in embarrassment*
(it wasn't a HUGE faux-pas... I have been in her class since September and know her quite well now... but this is the first time she's worn an outfit that when she reached up to write something on top of the whiteboard, it revealed her lower back tattoo and I was all "hey, you have a tramp stamp!" LOL I did explain myself after the quizzical looks, but only ONE person in the class was even vaguely familiar with HIMYM and barely remembered that episode... oh well!)

It was "Nothing Good Happens After 2 A.M"- I suppose I also had the slight advantage of knowing that he had watched "Zip Zip, Zip" not too long before I got said message. But, yeah, "Ted" and "moron" in the same sentence led me straight to "Nothing Good...."
