... when you read 'Sherlock' where it says 'Sandra Bullock' - yeah, it starts with an S and got an -'ock' in it, that's how my brain works.

Oh yes, I know exactly how it is.........

I was on a business trip yesterday and one of the train stations was called "Esch" (pronounced "ash"). When they announced it I just thought of TSOT and "I know ash!" The other passengers were probably surprised that I suddenly started to giggle.

Those scenes are a tour de force of acting; comedy is much, much harder to get right than straight drama, and they nailed it perfectly

You use the picture you posted above in a chat room... and get all giggly when someone sends you a message saying 'Sherlock refference?'

I love that. Goes right along with the cutely amusing bits you see making the rounds online every so often, about his name. Sometimes it gets a little old, sometimes it's sweetly endearing, just the fans having fun with their favorite (since even he's joked about his name). My personal favorites are Bandersnatch Cummerbund, Rumblyvoice Sexypants, and Bendandsnap Calldispatch.
Ooh… you just reminded me of a post from ages ago talking about that very thing… always meant to share a related tumblr thread in it, but never did… kinda got me sparked to find it and put in there (to not hijack this thread)

.. and a brand for socks and stockings "Hudson".

You know you´re obessed with Sherlock when you watch the completely unrelated "Entourage" and still keep seeing Sherlock and John..

Mattlocked · March 7, 2014 3:33 pm

I like the Bonobomb!

tonnaree · March 7, 2014 4:07 pm

I'll have to tell hubby you guys were amused by Bonobomb.

When you have a stressful day and come home Bearing pizza because you don't feel like cooking and proclaim "it's a three pizza problem"

When your kids name new stuffed animals sherlock and John "wasson"

This Is The Phantom Lady · March 11, 2014 1:31 am

When you notice later that the serviettes you started using have almost the same pattern as Sherlock's pillow. As seen in my avatar...

My brother and sister-in-law named their dog Watson. Ironically, the only Sherlock incarnation they follow is Elementary!

But they wanted a "famous sidekick" name.

When you really, really hate the taste of coffee (I take my coffee with so much milk and prefferably chocolate that you can't really call it coffee). But you insist on trying and finishing a cup of Black, 2 sugars.

... you've trained your friends so well that they send you terrible mobile snapshots of Andrew Scott whom they spotted on British morning television. (Yes, this just happened, and it made me laugh.)
