You might be a spudder if

Note by Ragnarok: I'm far too lazy to copy much of that topic into this page (I've done the fire three pages). Someone else can do some more.
However, don't just copy the list across blindly. Consider if it will be funny if taken out of context. Something may be amusing if you know DYI said it, and you know about one of his projects/mishaps - but take that away, it may no longer be funny.

For example, this: "You might be a spudgunner if you have to think of a story to explain why 30kgs of pipe and valves are in your suitcases at the airport" is funny if you know that it was posted by MrCrowley, and that he brought back a large load of American pipe when on a trip there. Without that context, it's less amusing.

Also, if it's not very good, don't copy it across. Consider this a "best of" compilation.

• you know how to pronounce pneumatic
• you know what pneumatic means
• the first place that comes to your mind when you here the word shopping is mcmaster.com
• you don't mind being perceived as 'that mental guy shooting stuff'

• you can't get to sleep over a propane problem
• You choose to stay at home and design a new gun other than going out with friends
• you see someone drinking a soda, and think "wow that's a really cool bottle, I wonder what pressure it can take."
