You know you're a sword addict when...
You're at a college party, someone hands you a perfectly good handle of vodka, and all you can think is how the bottle would make a really good cutting target.
So there's my story, what's yours?

You know you're a sword addict when the word recycling means putting plastic bottles in garbage bags and saving them for cutting up later. (Then leaving them in your backyard after said cutting)

You know you're a sword addict when you break into your mothers house, steal all of her appliances, and pawn them to pay for MR's "Deal of the day".

...You're willing to sell your car for an Odinblade with a custom scabbard from DBK or Christian Fletcher.

...When you and your friends are watching a movie and they say 'oh, that guy/girl is hot', and you say 'forget them, I want that sexy sword!'
...When you both carry a sword to your wedding and most of your guests have also.
...When you begin taking pictures down to make room for more sword racks.
...When you move your printer off your desk to make room for more sword stands.
...When you buy a gun case with no intention of putting a gun in it.
(Yup, I've done most of these! ;D )

When your about to build a house, and are seriously considering not using the master bedroom as a bedroom, sleeping in another bedroom because the master is the most appropriate for a sword shrine type room...

When you're playing (or watching a playthrough of) a fantasy JRPG or some other kind of medieval fantasy-themed video game and you can't help but think how the main character's sword would have a POB way too far forward to be of any use in real life.
When you're sitting during a lecture for a college history course that covers the Middle Ages and when a period image containing one or more swords comes up during the professor's PowerPoint presentation the first thing that comes to your mind is trying to determine the Oakeshott type/s of said sword/s.
I specifically mention these two because they indeed both happened to me recently.

You're addicted when:
draw a parabola in Calculus and you can only think about how to make the point of the sword represented better...
Are talking about highwaymen in history and can't decide whether a type XII or a type XVI would be the more appropriate against them
You divide your check into "living expenses" and "swords"
You have a DBQ on your midterm (Document-Based Question) on the March of Grace in England and stop the routine because you see the people as for rights to bear crossbows and handguns but not swords... (actually happened to me).
You're playing god of war, but you can't get over the fact that Kratos' swords are sooo way unbalanced...
Are not scared because there is a stranger with a knife in your house (because there's a sword at hand's reach everywhere in your house).
Ask for money on Christmas because your loved ones will NOT buy another sword for you...

When you start selling all your paintball gear on ebay to buy new swords, bows and other historical weaponry! (Btw, anyone interested in some paintball pistols? I see some new swords are coming out soon, and I want to be ready! )

Hello, my name is SirTre and I am a swordaholic, i haven't bought a sword in 6 months.... where's my freaking coin!!!!!
I think i got it bad... once bought the queen a sword for valentine's day. Midori may have topped that in the romantic dept tho. we both keep one on each side of the bed. been teaching my dog kung fu and she is even learning to dodge a sword blade ( a woody), but she isnt ready to learn how to use one yet... damn dog said something about swordplay to hard to learn with out thumbs.

... You postulate the training value of the Nerf N-force series just so you can turn the four year old in a sparring partner.
(* the cats keep asking for rapiers, maybe I'vet the little one watch too much Shreck in front of them *)

Your shooting buddies show up with new guns and cool gear, but instead of paying attention to them you lapse into showing them the latest swords in the collection and follow on with a lecture of what time period they are each from and how they would have each been used differently.
(happened yesterday)
At least we found common ground by discussing how great a Type XIIIa would be for dealing with a crowd of zombies. ;D
