Signs that you're STILL addicted to 'The X-Files'

...You start eating sunflower seeds just because they remind you of Mulder.

...You perk up when you hear a character in a film or TV show mention that the FBI have been called in only to be disappointed when the Feds who arrive aren't Mulder or Scully. Or even Doggett for that matter.

...You know more about exsanguination than anyone who isn't a medical doctor or a vampire has a right to.

...You know Mulder & Scully's badge numbers, birth dates, and addresses by heart but you still have trouble remembering the exact date of your parent's wedding anniversary.

...You take a Latin class just to keep up on the episode titles.

...You could spend hours discussing the complex intricacies and underlying themes of 'The X-Files' but if someone asks you to stand up and say a few words at a meeting your mind goes blank.

...You have a 'X-File'quote for every occasion and on every one of those occasions you use them.

..You use a quote from 'X-Files' in your e-mail signature.

...When you see a picture from the show you can tell at first glance the title of the episode it was from, the season, and the basic plot. Most of the time you can even supply a few choice quotes from the episode,

...The only words in Russian you know aren't appropiate for certain audiences. (Thanks a lot Krycek.)

...Bees. They aren't just for honey anymore.

...You get wistful when driving by a cornfield. (Mulder! Scully!)

...Whenever you see the color blue you marvel at how it's like a gentle breeze.

...You know all the In-Jokes in each episode.

...When you hear the word 'fox' the first image in your head is not of a small woodland creature.
