Ok, I'm gonna find all these and post them on the Vatican Cameos thread...just so we don't go too wildly off topic on this one!

An interesting choice of name. Are they Sherlock Holmes fans? Or his arch enemies?

You know you're obsessed with Sherlock when....

...you have to fight the urge to turn every conversation into something about Sherlock
You get Sherlock withdrawal when you haven't done something Sherlockian in a while, and start to feel on edge and anxious

You know you're obsessed with Sherlock...

when I'm starting to observe people/things around me (as a result I have a very acute headache) and try guessing their occupation/life story.. LOL

...when you find yourself lurking around an old hospital building, taking photographs and leaving a post-it just because a fictional character in a tv series faked his death there!

Davina · March 11, 2012 4:17 pm

That's a good one!

What about: when you find yourself aimlessly making up Sherlock related slogans? See slogans at bottom of forum page.

New one: Got a problem? Need to see a doctor? Make it a Sherjohn. (say this out loud to get the joke, though you might sound like Sean Connery) lol

ahahaha, Sherjohn - genius!

When you sometimes find it hard to remember that Sherlock is a fictional character!

Davina · March 11, 2012 4:30 pm

Oh Lordy! Is he?

Davina · March 11, 2012 4:31 pm

Oh and I thank you.

theCuriousOne · March 11, 2012 4:42 pm

yeah.. that's true.. I must keep tellin' my self both John and Sherlock is fictional character... but mostly I forgot. XD

Davina · March 11, 2012 9:57 pm

When you keep humming the music from Sherlock.

something I realize lately, you know you're obsessed with Sherlock when you find yourself frustrating because you can't follow the flow of discussion just because your English is sucks and you don't understand enough to give excellent argument/opinion.

Ceto · March 13, 2012 6:28 am

Know how that feels :/ well, we always have google translate! XD

......When you go around and sing the sherlock theme song.
......When you sit all day on youtube and watch Sherlock related videos.
......When you try to make a joke about Sherlock and no one understands, your friends says "never mind her, she's just one of those crazy sherlockians"
