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

Yes, welcome to my favourite obsession, Doctor! 


I have one to add too... When you go out in the real world after a while of indulging in Sherlock and you find yourself making so many observations and deductions about the tiniest things... useless things however. I deducted a white scooter with a grey flower pattern I passed must have belonged to the owner of the herbal clinic it was parked in front, as there was a distinctive use of grey in there; the final proof being the sofa which had been covered by a blanket with grey flowers. 

Utterly useless.

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

I got excited when I saw a huge Sherlock TAB billboard hanging over the motorway on the way home from the airport today. Also when I saw a van with "crime scene cleaning service" printed on the side

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

Yup, welcome, doctor!
@Phantom, this wasn't completely useless. Imagine the scooter had been stolen or something, you could have called their owner to tell them were it was ;)

@ukaunz just imagining the words "crime scene cleaning service" written on a van is enough to make me smirk.

I also have something to add : when you find yourself saying things out loud which are "a bit not good". Like deducing people to their face.
Good thing she knew me and didn't get upset.

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

Yes, wear that fact with pride!


Also... when your mum calls you to tell you that her good friend is getting a dog, an Irish Setter... and you physically have to stop yourself from going "OMG, just like Sherlock's Redbeard!!"

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

Phantom, I would have gone further and insisted they called it Redbeard!
Incidentally, I put my hand up to the Redbeard reveal being one of favourite parts of HLV!

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

I was about to! But I am really trying not to talk too much about the shows... I think my mother worries. lol. 


Also... you know you're obsessed when you hear the start of the trailer for STAB, and you abandon your cooking to rush in front of the TV... almost tripping over the carpet... and your food almost burns because after the trailer they also show their jokey trailer for Award Season, which includes the clip from last year with Ben and the hipflask... 

I love that channel... they show those trailers between every program!

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

Ha, having an Irish setter...one of my desires for at least 10 years, now. I just need to move out and have my own place, and that desire will be fulfilled.

Aside from that, well. Here's a (small) example of why I need to move out





I might be a tad obsessed.
Nothing wrong with that, is there?

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

hehe, thank you

A friend of mine said that it was a shrine. I beg to differ. There are no candles. I know it's more romantic *giggles*, but...
I need more room, I have oh so many other...Sherlock-related objects...and I certainly don't plan on stopping. Ever.

I have some of that stuff...
You know I'm ashamed to say I can't remember what happened to the paintings of Sherlock and John.

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

When you sit an exam, and the text you're translating deals with digging up a grave. The Devil's grave.
And the people doing that wore "long black coats", with officials' approval.
And while the gravediggers were working, the two main characters "shared a long look".

Huh.

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

When you have your best friend, and fellow Sherlockian (thanks to you) at your place and you have to watch HLV together... and you end up reciting the whole thing... 
I couldn't even make my lips stop. 

I took her to see TAB... and to my horror realized she hadn't seen the end of HLV; I only remembered when we sat down in the cinema and I knew I had to put it right!

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

We had one of our regular staff meetings, yesterday.
Our boss opened with: has anyone any issues?
My colleague responded: Yes, I have a list.
It took all my strength, not to add: and I have a file!

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

Lol!

I have pretty much spoken in Sherlock quotes all day today! How I enjoy being with fellow geeks, it makes it so much easier to communicate!
