23. Oh yeah.
What gets really scary is when you talk back to the tv. I'm used to it as a Rocky Horror fan, but it is strange when others do it who haven't even seen RHPS.

38. You know what I do?
When I'm watching a Detroit Tigers game on TV and one of the guys hits a big home run (say, a game-winner) and gets mobbed at the plate, I run up to the screen and pat all the guys on the back and, with thumbs and forefingers, shake all their little televised hands.
I say "hehhhh," too -- like crowd noise.
John
Okay, admittedly there haven't been many of those game-winners in the last ten years or so -- but I still do it when I can.

39. I do.....
Edited on Fri Jul-30-04 02:01 AM by LiberalManiacfromOC
and I scream like a 9-year old girl at a Britney Spears concert..... even when people are around.

Edit: No one was home tonight so I turned all the TVs on to full blast and ran around the house screaming and dancing after Kerry's speech.

Do I need help too?
