You know you're a B'way geek when... — Page 6

I do that too, with the spelling bee commericals.
When you see a commercial for a Broadway show, even if you hate it, you start screaming with happiness.
When you say you are going to do an essay on theatre, your friend goes "Well, I could have guessed that. It's all you talk about, anyway."

Add me to the iPod thing list!

--When your friends are looking for a song from any musical, and they ask for your iPod.
--When you knew Chandra Wilson from Caroline or Change before you saw her on Grey's Anatomy.
--When you've prescribed a cure for "I love Wicked, Phantom, and Cats"-itis. (Begin with Into the Woods and Rent, at least, proceed to Ave Q and maybe Urinetown. Sweeney and Sunday come later.)

--When you knew Chandra Wilson from Caroline or Change before you saw her on Grey's Anatomy.

And then when she starts singing (beautifully) on the last episode, you proceed to inform everyone of her theatre career.

"You Know you're a B'way geek when..."

the only sight you visit on Thanksgiving is BWW

You pick up a butter knife and scream "At last my right arm is complete again!"

The kid next to you in geometry class gets moderately frightened when you start humming "I'm not that smart" to yourself as you get exams back

You bake birthday cakes for Broadway stars

You look at people and decide what musical they shoudl be in (ex. my vice principal and my english teacher are sweeney and johanna)

On christmas eve, you call all your friends at nine and ten PM, eastern standard time, and start reciting rent for them (same with "happy new year")

You see a zamboni and think of freddy

As soon as someone mentions antartica, you say "oh please"

You get quite upset when people try to feed plants, particulary flytraps

At the end of an amazing date, you hum "goodbye until tomorrow"

Humming "Springtime for Hitler" gets you into many awkward situations

Seeing somebody typing makes you spontaniously break into "The Speed Test"

Yeah... I've done all of this... tragic, isn't it...

and yes, i'm also quite guilty of bashing those who call themselves rentheads but only know the movie

Ok Ok I made this one up...

"When someone asks what you want(for Christmas, B-day, Gala Event...) and you reply..." I wanna be a Producer!"

i always do this, but whenever i'm just talking i might say something and then realize that's it's from a show and start reciting/singing the song...

I feel so much better now, its not just me.

When you watch Mean Girls and you think of Wicked when Lindsay Lohan says "no good deed goes unpunished" and you think that omg Elphaba is her mother. (For those who don't know, Ana Gasteyer played Lindsay's mom).

You do a Spanish project on Chita Rivera.

You can answer a question on a test/exam correctly because you learned it from a musical.

Your parents accuse you of being a "Broadway snob" and you are proud of it.

(guilty of all three)

You know you are a B'way geek when you become a Broadway Legend on this message board after 2 months. No offense intended to anyone this applies to.

Your friend actually got mad at you today because you didn't have enough "real music" on your iPod.


Oh, and you actually got really jealous the other day because you have a friend in Equity productions who you feel doesn't appreciate it as much as she should.
