i figure this could generate some humorous responses i'll start.. you know you're a toy nerd when you know the obvious differences between a kanegon and a kusogon. you are a balding 40somthing but you still own a hair dryer.
bill money = toy money, and you don't need any gas when you're always sitting in front of your computer
when i get that work from home job then i will be set and i will save on bill money then cause i can get rid of the damn car too... sell that for toys
when your kids ask you why you have more toys than they do. to which I answer: "because I've been collecting longer than you"
...you frequently find yourself watching 40+ year old Japanese children's programs even though you don't have kids or speak any language but your own.
When you look around your room/house and value everything in the amount of toys that you could get for that money. ....you travel 24+ hours for just a few hours at a toy show ....you stay up all night just to have the chance of possibly buying a toy (i.e. lottery) ....you become a regular at your local post office, to the point that when you don't show up, they think something is wrong ....you visit COOP's photostream, to look at toys ....you conveniently leave a meeting for a 'bathroom break' at the moment when a new toy is being released ....you learn foreign words that are related to the hobby, but have no grasp of the language I could go on all night
...you set your alarm clock at 3am to try your luck on a lottery happening on the other side of the world and tell your wife/gf to stay in bed because this is not the morning...
...your lady asks what your bummed attitude is about and the answer is that you got an "oversold" email...
