When someone mentions "overdrive" during a completely different situation (e.g. cars) and you instantly think of the ODB-3, Polish Love, etc.

When the end of the "Strobostomp vs Turbo Tuner" video made you laugh out loud and you thought it was more awesome than most of last year's blockbusters.
...when you justify quitting smoking by telling yourself that your half pack a day habit monetarily equates to a pedal a month.
When you buy a new bass, your first thought is... I hope my <insert favorite pedal here> sounds good with it.

I had a dream about my pedalboard last night. It involved playing at a house party, and trying to find my pedalboard amongst all the other enormous pedalboards lying around the place....

I had a dream last night that I went to an impromptu rehearsal and forgot my board. Yeah....I would have driven back home to get it except that I woke up.
It's like how you always wake up before you die in your dream.
I carry pictures of my settings in my phone. Does that count??
You Know You're an FX Junkie When you bought a new camera to keep track of all your settings............. Yeah thats me
When you spend so much time reading up on pedals (which you can't afford) that you know more about them than someone that owns them when you don't even have them for yourself
Ha! I just had a dream last week that Akai was going out of business and were selling the Headrush 50% off...
