When you start buying every Animorph book at every secondhand store you see because you just can't wait for your cousin to give you his set... he's too slow! I mean come on, he said you could have them at the beginning of the year!

You read about someone riding an andalitei n a fan fic and scream that it was stated that andalites had sloped unridable backs

lol I do the bunzzzzuh thing sometimes. Especially if I see a Cinnabon at the mall, or my uncle makes canned ones again. (mom and I live with aunt and uncle)

And I wouldn't do the monkey thing either. My Planet of the Apes fan-self wouldn't allow it anyway lol

I love watching the hawks around the quarry-most of them are red-tails AFAIK.

You find yourself trying to cross other fandoms with Animorphs (I have part of a Bones fic written with several infested characters...Booth,Cullen,Jack and Brennan, but Jack is YPF. Either way, he has to be infested in such a cross, it's too much fun to not infest the resident conspiracy theorist lol)

You give your online persona morphing ability (I'm kind of borderline furry, or scaly, although I don't hang out much in the fandom these days or fursuit or anything. But my Quetzalcoatlus persona, Highsoar, is morph-capable now.

I also love the convinced you can morph one-I sometimes end up looking at my hands, daydreaming about morphing. Especially if I really wanna get somewhere, I keep thinking mentally "man I wish I could just morph and fly over there!"

You see a link for the song 'Animorphs Aren't Cool Anymore' and get really mad at the band. It's not a really well known group, but it is on Last.FM if you look it up.

It's hard not to look at people and wonder if they're controllers

That 'Yeerks are Here' forum really gives you shivers, even though if you look closely, you can find the 'Roleplay' label there.

You're in two Animorphs RPGs online and were in others before they died

Way too many songs remind you of the series or its characters

You see a review on Amazon where someone said the new Resisters series was better than Animorphs and that the books weren't written well in places, and really wanna yell at the reviewer. ( no I didn't get all angry in my reply, just said I disagreed)

You eagerly look through donations at the library for any of the books (I got lucky twice, with a copy of The Attack and one of The Beginning. We got one of The Invasion, but I don't need it. I did get plenty of weeds from the library collection though.  Ours, the Bookmobile and another in our system where a coworker had moved to...her husband still works with us and she gave him the bag to give me lol)

You make Andalite and Hork-Bajir plushies (yes I will post them one day, but  the Hork-Bajir is in the middle of major surgery to add wires so his neck won't droop and the Andalite needs a bit of touching up.

BTW IDK about later bookmarks but I have a copy of The Alien with the bookmarks still in it

You get really interested in Animal Planet's Monsters Inside Me and envision them doing a Yeerk ep

A book called Stuck On Earth catches your attention but seems like a slight ripoff because it's also about an alien slug taking over a kid's head. He just came in through the nose, not the ear and did something to contain the kid's consciousness while he was there.

-You're sort of convinced that the Metro train labeled "Special" will one day stop at a Metro station labeled "Yeerk Pool" and await this day eagerly (:P )

-You wonder if becoming a voluntary would lead to the invasion getting way, way too much useful information and if a true Yeerk would be disturbed, find you convenient, or mock the heck out of you (most likely)

-You're more convinced than the average citizen that McDonald's is evil (>D )

-The name "Tobias" irrationally brings up hawk imagery and catches your attention whenever it is used

-The name "Jake" strikes you as "leaderly"

-You have taken the time to teach a parrot to say 'Whats that on your head, is it a wombat?' or 'It's a toupee! It's a toupee!'  :XD:


You should see my other Gunblade. ;)

Bazing Angel is my Flaming brother.......No, no, no he's NOT gay, just Flaming. :P

I forgot one.

There's a line of Beanie Babies on your chest of drawers: Tiger, bear,gorilla,red-tailed hawk and wolf (actually the hawk is a Wild Republic plushie, not a beanie).

The Andalite's on my bookcase, I intend to post pics but I need to get going and do some corrections on him.

I wonder if I could find a northern harrier plush...

someone says a number between 1-54 and the first thing that pops in your mind is the animorphs book of that number

when you don't bother capitalizing words like "andalite" or "yeerk" because you consider them normal words

Talking about rereading books brings fond memories of gorillas in trucks and carpet-mopping bears to mind.

when you can't go more than 10 minutes without doing something related to animorphs:
  • finding songs that you swear are about animorphs
  • spouting random animal facts that aren't common
  • spouting off animorph quotes all the time
  • wonder if schizophrenic people are just controllers who ate Maple and Ginger Instant Oatmeal
  • freak out everytime you hear a name mentioned in the animorphs
  • say a frantic prayer that the ****roach that you are about to kill is not one of the animorphs
  • don't trust most groups
  • freak out if anyone you know starts acting strangely

You see a book titled "The Terrible Axe-Man" and start giggling, even though it isn't spelled correctly. (it's actually a true crime thing, although I didn't read it, I just saw it in one of the library transit bins at work)
