When you're walking down the street and you wonder from how high up can you do a forward roll.

^^maybe this would apply to gymnasts too?

When you stop hanging out with people who don't do BJJ. Simply because there is nothing to talk about with THOSE kind of people.

When you drive past a local karate or tkd mcdojo and u slow to a crawl, lower your driver side window, and just give it the evil eye while doing that surfer pinkie and thumb sign like you're doing an mma driveby with simply bad intentions

When all you can think about at work is what submission would work best against your boss including if that submission would be too loud for the office to hear…

when you use terms like "shrimping" "oopa" "hooks" and various submissions in your day to day vocabulary expecting everyone you run into to know wat they mean

when you see people on the subway, and think how fast you could take them down and sub them

the way to size up a guy in a bar isnt to look at the physical size of his body, but to see if he has cauliflower ears

asking every person wearing a tapout, sprawl, affliction, extreme couture wat they train, usually getting the answer "i dont train, but i do watch the UFC" with your response being "oh..."
No Country for Old Men. I was like "he doesn't have the hooks, just hip out and take side control you buffoon." But it didn't happen.
