You may be a PADer if...
..."take a look at my PAD!" means to go online, not to come home with you.
...you can recognize someone's picture online but never meet the person.
...you can't leave home without your keys, wallet, and camera.
..."PBase" is heaven and "offline" is hell.
...you have considered making business cards referring to your PaD site because so many people have asked why you take so many pictures.
...you know more than 3 synonyms for "photo".
Please add on!

You may be a PADer if...
... while showering, you catch yourself daydreaming about
what you might photograph tomorrow.
... you quite happily agree to babysit your niece or nephew
because they'll certainly make good subject matter.
... without any romantic consideration, you rationalize it's
been a while since you've had flowers at home.
... for the sake of amusing others, you'll gladly
endure silly self-portraits.
... you make a trip to Home Depot with camera in hand.
... you get chastised by shopkeepers for photographing
merchandise rather than buying it.
... your home unwittingly becomes your studio.
... you regard your flashlight as part of your "photographic gear."
And finally, you may be a PADer if... you've ever regarded
your toilet for its artistic potential.

CJ,
In light of today's "image by association" theme, it's inevitable to associate your shower comment with your shower image

8...you have posted a photo of your underwear

15b. When one of your shoulders is lower than the other one from carrying around that 10D+24-70 everywhere you go.
When you walk around in the rain for hours looking for a photogenic postbox to oblige a fellow PaDer.
When you feel naked without your camera.

You guys are so funny...and it's all so true!
So I concur...and as well...I think that...
You know you are a PADer if......
--you think about what photos to take even when you are having sex
--you plan dinner or weekend plans around what you may want to photo
--you check Pbase at least 15 times a day
--you have trouble sleeping thinking about photos
--it takes longer than "normal" to finish anythig because of taking photos of it
--you take your camera everywhere...even the grocerystore, or bathroom
-- you feel like crying if you forget your camera.
