You're walking in a store like Walmart or Home Depot, and start thinking odd things like "hmm, that candleholder would make a good blaster scope" or "those beads look like lightsaber buttons"...actually, that's more like "You know you're a prop & costuming Star Wars nut when..." ;D

You know you'er a Costumer /prop nut(Can workfor star wars), when you start staring at you rown wardrobe seeing with peices can be rebuilt for costumes. Or digging through the odds, ends and thing-ma-jiggers, whatchamacallit's in the tool box seeing which could be used for a Comlink. Or any other type of gadget.

You know you're a StarWars nut when you see the two letters "EU" and aren't sure wether to say "Ugh! European Union!" or "Cool! Expanded Universe!".

Well<Scratching head> I have been staring at them in an attempt to figure out how the Lightsabers work on a physics level simply because of the challenge.

In a vacuum, a lightsaber(if you want the blade to be shaped like a torus and be inside of something permanently) would be like the inside of a Tokamak fusion reactor. They have made these. The "blade" is a ring inside of a magnetic containment sysem that is a plasma(a charged gas at temperature over 10000 degrees C). The temperatures reached inside are as high as 4,000,000 degrees C.

........... when this sentence not only makes sense, but actually gets you excited........
"I'm in with the acryllics guy, and I can get you blades for $20."
........ you are at the do-it-yourself car wash and instinctively hold the sprayer up on your shoulder like Battle Arena Padme so your niece can walk by without getting drenched.

When youre in a paintball tourney and you see a team posted as Rouge Squodron and you seek them out so you can talk SW shop only to find out they are way cool. Instead of saying good luck to each other at the start of games you say " May the Force Be with You"
Youre planning another trip back east in June to attend a SW party for just the weekend.
You reffer to youre home state as Kamino.
You no longer awnser to youre name only youre Jedi name and when people callyoure house they ask for you by that name to.
You like live online cuz that is were all youre SW friends are
