    #114 Whenever you cook an omelette you smirk

    #115 Whenever you fall over you shout the infamous 'Roger Moore Groan' (the first sound you here on ) :D

    That one's really annoying. The conversation will usually go something like this.

    Fake Fan: I'm a huge James Bond fan.
    Me: Really? How many have you seen?
    Fake Fan: The last couple. Skyfall and Quantum of Royale. I really liked them.
    Me: Wow and I thought I loved the series.

    These are the same people who can't list all 6 actors. They'll say Connery, Moore, Brosnan, and Craig.

    Anyhow we're up to #118.

    #118) Despite the fact that you respect the hell out of Jeremy Irons as an actor you're still bummed that Timothy Dalton wasn't cast as Alfred in Batman vs. Superman.
  • You make quiche for your date if you have to cook.

    120. When you draw a queue number that reads 007 at the postal office and take it home to tape it above your Bond collection in your film shelf.
    (Yes, I have done that.)
  • 121: When you go to the anime thread and the first thing you want to do is ask about Bond's manga
  • When you sit in an auto and you think that there's maybe an ejector seat installed, either under yours, or the passenger seat. Highly unlikely, but as James Bond enthusiasts, maybe a little concerned when someone reaches for the gear stick.. Maybe I've read reading too much into replies..
  • If you carry a whole deck full of the same exact tarot card to impress ladies.
  • When I say quiche, you think "an omelet!"

    ....You'd hang upside down over a toilet with the ability to chit-chat and punch with precision like when you're standing up.

    Thankyou @Murdock. For the longest time I was the only one who would ask. Part of me believes some members don't number them just to frustrate me. Lol

    127) You get upset when a website or magazine ranks the greatest title sequences in the history of cinema and the Bond films don't encompass atleast half of them.
  • 128) You dress with the coolest attire when visiting Caribbean islands where simple clothing is better to wear.

    129) You raise your eyebrows when examining a new product or item handed to you.

    130) You try to find an app that allows you to not only turn on your car but also to drive it.

  • 131) You get annoyed when a film reviewer calls a Bond movie "The best Bond film in years" when he clearly hasn't kept up with them. I heard so many people say SK "reinvigorated", "refreshed", or brought the franchise back even though only 6 years and 2 films ago they were saying the same thing about CR. Not that much happened in between those 2 films. Wow these people have short memories.
  • 132) When your friend doesn't make it alive just after a boating trip and you later take his junior on one years later.

    133) You flirt with your best friend's wife on their wedding day.

    134) You wear AVTAK horse racetrack clothing to your friend's wedding while stealing the show by skydiving there.

    135) Your playing cards don't have numbers for poker.

    136) You ask every Russian woman if she's Georgian just to show you know about a small country as though you're sophisticated.

    That might the best one I've read. Dalton was a dirty little rascal. Kissing his best friend's new bride as poor Felix was in his office working.

    Was that flirting? I wouldn't have known. That was two close friends who may or may not have had a relationship in the past but are now strictly platonic ;)

    This is the thread I meant to find earlier! I knew we had one already going.

    I don't have a new one to add just now.
    The one I use the most is saying, "Yes. Considerably." at far too many opportunities. But that was mentioned pages ago.

    137) When stared at, no matter where you are, you also lose your appetite.

    138) If anyone rolls a double six you say; "Double sixes.Fancy that. ."

    139) If you see any male in a red shirt you comment; "And he's wearing a red shirt!"

    I've heard that theory before. I don't know. Della seems pretty old for Dalton. I understand the actress is probably younger than Dalton but I'm just so conditioned, especially in the 80s, to seeing Bond with ladies 10 to 15 years his junior.

    I just looked it up. Percilla Barnes was only 2 years older than Carey Lowell. Wow I thought she was alot older. Only 31 years old at the time. Felix was literally double her age. I'll remember this next time I'm watching LTK. Felix is more suited to be giving away the bride rather than marrying her.

    140. You begin to feel incredibly guilty for not having watched your favorite Bond movie in at least a year, or for that matter, taking an extended "Bond break"

    141) Everytime you drive by a dam, you try to see which part of it is possible to pull off a bungee jump.

    141) You ask random blondes at parties if they're buying or selling.

    143: You go to a party and say your name is James Saint John Smythe.
  • 144) You rent a Ford if you try to keep a low profile.

    145) You enjoy telling somebody (nonBond fan) to "go blow up your pants!" and take a quiet satisfaction at the look of confusion (usually mixed with humor) on their face.

    146) When you happen to stumble across a random quiz, you tune in to see if there's a question about Bond....
  • 146) Stocks and Bonds always confuse you with news about Bond 24...25..etc...

    147) When playing 007 Nightfire multiplayer and setting up the AI bots, you make sure to pair each main villain up with their proper henchman.

    (#146 was posted twice so we're up to #149)

    149)When playing multiplayer on any Bond video game having a match without one player as Bond just seems so wrong.

    150)You've seriously considered cutting you hair and styling it like Daniel Craig despite the fact that you hate your hair when it's that short.

  • 151) You whistle Le Vie en Rose whenever you pass by the place you met your ex.

    152) You name any customized or modified drinks at Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf after the lady who is with you.

    153) You cut a slice of lemon peel and put it in any cold drink.

    154) You play Quantum of Solace all the way just to watch the end and consider it part of the movie in lieu of the deleted scene.

    155) You ask random people if they want to play Quantum of Solace online.

    156) You've been to the shower in a tuxedo.

    157) You only know how to cook quiche.

    158) You don't say a word about your childhood.
  • 159) You always think about Raoul Silva and his grandmother's island when you pass by the coconuts in the market and they're not coconuts to you anymore: they're CO-COnuts!

  • 160) You see Judi Dench in her different career projects and are pleasantly surprised and keep trying to find references she might make to M or having been part of Bond.
