You know you've been watching too much Rurouni Kenshin when...

10.27.01 Gaahh! Haven't updated for so long...gomen! Anyway,thanks for sending in your stuff, and keep 'em coming!

  • Your laugh starts to sound like "Ohohohoho!" and is usually accompanied by a hand placed to the side of your mouth.
  • You buy a trampoline so you can practice your Amakakeru-no Hirameki in the backyard, "with a jump as high as Kenshin's".
  • You no longer need a trampoline to perform the Amakakeru-no Hirameki.
  • You try on your mummy costume,and it's not even Halloween yet.
  • You've thought about dying your hair red, brown or white, or gelling it up in gravity-defying spikes.
  • You end all your statements with "de gozaru".
  • You call people by their names followed by "-dono".
  • You run away from people who are cheery and bright, because you know they're really insane.
  • You've attempted to set yourself on fire.
  • You own a collection of small swords and knives.
  • You say "Oro?" instead of "What?"
  • You dye your socks purple.
  • You have an "aku" kanji on one of your shirts...and you're wearing that shirt right now!
  • You try to convince to local restaurant to "put it on my tab".
  • You wonder how green lipstick would look on you.
  • You can sing the full version of "One Half" without stumbling over the words.
  • You hit people on the head with your shinai.
  • You chant "Beshimi, Shiki-jo..." along with Aoshi, and actually feel sorry for him.
  • You buy boxes of candy during your travels for the folks back home.
  • You search all the vintage stores for a pair of sunglasses that look just like Enishi's.
  • You religiously check the mail-order catalogues for those rare and expensive RK collectibles.
  • Your collection of RK videos, music CDs, VCDs, LDs etc. has grown so big you had to create a database for them.
  • You and your friend were sent to the dean of discipline because you were bickering loudly over Tomoe and Kaoru in class.
  • You are overjoyed to find that you ang Misao have the same height, which means you and Aoshi would be a perfect match!

    From Sushu Xia: [and for the record, she knows someone who has actually DONE these -Megumi]
    - You scratch a cross scar on your cheek with a pencil when in a state of absent-mindedness.
    -You go "Kenshin? Where?"
    -You get those sandal things ["geta", I think =)] and practice jumping around in them without falling off.
    - You do the Gatotsu with anything long and vaguely similar to a katana. (i.e.a badminton racket, a big stick, a pencil....)
    - You know the name and the kanji for EVERY character of Kenshin. And make up names for those who don't. (Those little kids that Kenshin plays with)

    From Sanosuke Sagara:
    - You find a stone and attempt to split it in 1/75th of a second.

    From Cryophoenix:
    You join a school of Kenjutsu, purely to learn Battojutsu and to prove that RK techniques work in real life.

    From Soushi:
    -You start smoking to imitate Saito.
    -You smirk at people and mutter "ahou-ga".
    -You've taken to wearing trenchcoats over ninja outfits.
    -Even worse, you've begun to carry about two kodachis in a single saya.
    -You yell out Aku whenever you see Sanosuke's back on the screen.
    -Next you stab at the screen trying to kill him (evil swiftly slain/Aku Soku Zan!).
    -You're sending in suggestions for this list.[Ah!There's the rub!]

    From Jupyter - Bringer of Jollity :
    -You do your Hitenmitsurugi moves when you think no one is watching
    -You desperately look for a red bandana to accompany your Aku shirt
    -You start to chew fish bones just to look good
