You dress up as a Cleric for halloween everyday.
You take Prozium breaks instead of Coffee breaks at work.

You find your neighbors bursting with laughter because they spied you trying to do gun kata in your back yard!

You find yourself signing up for violin lessons only to find out there's no sheet music for the EQ soundtrack.

... when you sit patiently in front of the TV waiting for Father's lecture to begin.
... when your alarm clock actually has Father's voice saying '(Insert name here), awaken. Awaken to triumph again in the face of yet another day.

U kno you're an Equilibirum fan when you.....
...Spell out the entire word "Equilibrium"... ...participate in Equilibrium related topics on fansites... ...actually going TO the fansites... ...yes, doing the gun kata motions indeed qualify u as an EQ nut... ...and finally, converting a beretta in a Cleric pistol complete with the TetraGrammaton muzzle flash, high capacity magazines, retractable spike magazines, and firing rate selector, not to mention the pistol sliding mechanism for the forearms...:)

You always greet coworkers who've seen the film with such greetings as, Good morning, Cleric, or Good afternoon, Cleric; often much to the confusion of others.

...You scream "EC-10!!!!!!!" when you see soemone reading a book.
...You purposely set painings on fire.
...Instead of turning out the lights, you blow the bulbs once the door is down.
...(If you are a custodian) you say to your co-worker "You clean, I'll sweep."
...(If you are a woman) your boyfriend offers his hand in marriage, and gives you a ring, and you say "No... I think in the end, it will be better if you have it."
...You go to a renaissance festival dressed as a Grammaton Cleric (I am actually guilty of this)
...You refer to the dilapidated section of your hometown as "The Nether"
... You regularly do backflips off of motorcycles.
...You carry a sword to every affair you must wear a suit to.
AND FINALLY...
...You take a polygraph test and finish your last answer with "Not without incident."

Ladies, I know all of you would love to have John Preston as your boyfriend, but always remember, every single woman (all two) that Preston was emotionally attached to ended up having their bodies charred to a crisp in a city furnace. Sometimes looks CAN kill. |

You know you're an EQ fan when.
- You always hide in derelict buildings at night when you read a book.
- You insist that all your workmates have their desks set up the same way.
- You encourage your son to pursue the same career interests.
- Listening to Classical music brings you to tears.
- When you go to an art gallery, you have pyromaniacal tendecies.
- You spend hours, if not days trying to reproduce an exact 3D replica of the Cleric Sidearm for a game modification based on the movie (For that, I'm guilty)
- You come to this site.

I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square." Song's so catchy, most people don't even listen to the lyric anymore. But they should! Cause it's not just about the pleasure of conformity and the importance of trend, it's also a personal statement about the band itself! Hey, Paul! *whap* |

you eat weird brown clumps for breakfast (chocolate cereal?)
you visit Germany and everything feels oddly familiar..
you call your cable television provider and ask them why you're not getting Father's lectures.

...You get the uncontrollable urge to shoot TV screens whenever you see someone talking on them.
...You run your hand along metal railings just so you can "feel" it.
...You make sure there is nothing around to knock over before you brush your teeth.
...You jump into the middle of a hackey-sack circle just so you can practice your Gun Kata.
...You get a sudden idea that you should run a fire truck through a wall of oil drums.
...You go to the video store to rent Equilibrium, but all the copies are checked out, and you slowly walk out of the store, turn around, and double over on the gravel to cry. Hopefully, nobody arrests you and punches your face in.
...You start thinking that the hourly beep on your watch means it's time for your interval.
...You ask your son to call you by your first name.
...You start wearing jet black double-breasted coats... all the time.
...The cops pull you over frequently because your brake lights look like reverse lights.
And finally----
...You compare Equilibrium to every other action movie in existence, only to find that every other action movie in existence is OWNED by Equilibrium's fascinating amount of badass-ness.
