1. You won't talk to anyone that doesn't have a playstation. 2. You buy a big screen tv, since your normal one is "just too small." 3. You have more than five memory cards. 4. Each memory card is devoted to one game each, and one only. And they're full. 5. You own more than 4 peripherials for you playstation. 6.

***I lived at what was dubbed "the wrestling house" at ODU last semester, meaning I lived with three wrestlers at ODU. Jeff, George, and Chad. George pulled a 0.0 GPA...he's not around anymore. I wasn't supposed to live in the house, I just happend to be the mysterious fourth check when bills were paid. Cable was cut off every month, cut back on before the Sopranos. We often had cookouts on the roof, highlighted by my PA system and a micraphone. This house was directly across the street from one of ODU's dorms. George played Final Fantasy 8 24/7.
