Hehe, you forgot the word "yanked."  ;D

YES!!! For a month I laughed about that! Yanked FTW!!!

Also, yeah, it might be really weird, but the song Wannabe by the Spice Girls never fails to remind me of Animorphs...

My sister had this keyboard thing that had that song... like a dorky, cheesier version of it... And I thought it was cool... (had never even heard of the SG, and it did sound cool...)

My niece Rachel, just because of the name. Yes, Rachel has been reincarnated as my niece. Aren't you all so jealous!? Now why she reincarnated into a short bbrown haird chunky girl, I don't know...

The name Toby, I hear that more often than Tobias. The other respective names.

Centaurs, Cinnabon, hawks, any kind of slug, Planet Hollywood, white lab/snake-food mice, when explaining thermals to people (a surprising number of people have no idea what they are).

A sad, sad fact if you ask me. O.o How do they think birds fly without flapping? :P

That's what they ask me. I say thermals, the go 0.o, and I explain.

Last night, I laid back in my bed staring up at the stars, and I thought to myself ... I probably should fix that hole in my roof.

Many animals, zoos particularly, slugs... many other things... My friends think I'm insane and have no life outside Animorphs ^^'

And something else:
Worms, particularly when worms are in fruits or people, removed from something... It always makes me remember Remnants. Very strongly. I see Violet with the worm in her hand...

Hm... Any discussion on courage. I was talking about one of the characters for my NaNo today, and someone said something like "Man, she's really fearless, isn't she?", and then I totally quoted Rachel's "Being brave isn't about not being afraid. It's about being scared to death, and still not giving in."

Which then made me realize that the protagonist of my NaNo is really a lot like Rachel.

Any open field/construction site/abandoned area. I always think that it would be a great place for a Bug Fighter or Andalite Fighter to crash land, or a great feeding place for Ax/Visser Three. Then I have to resist the urge to stake it out until one of the aforementioned events happens.  :-\ I think I'd be there awhile.

Cinnabon since I can't pass one without thinking of Ax staring at the place drooling. Hawks of any kind, Arcades, The Skylight dome at the mall in the town i live in. Chapman University XD and of course anyone with an Animorphs related name.

Almost everything on Earth reminds me of Animorphs. Sometimes I call my cat Minx a yeerk and i dont even know why! Yesterday during a parade i looked a a certain star and said "Merry Christmas Ax" now that i think of it, it kinda sounds stupid, yet i cant help myself. I speak animorph tounge so much, its hard for ANYONE to really understand me.
There are many dangers for an Andalite in human morph. For one thing, there is the constant danger that you will fall off your two legs. The slightest push and you can topple over. But worst by far, is the danger of taste. Taste is the sense that can drive an Andalite mad! Especially is it involves cinnimon buns or chocolate.

A lot of things. It's almost sad.

Any bird of prey, especially that hawk sound. Basically any animal they morphed, McDonald's, people with the respective names, groups of 5-6 animals together, the topic of aliens, the topics of slavery/morality under pressure/etc... The list goes on.

Also, when I look at the sky and wish I could fly, usually I'll also think, "Damn. If only I could morph."

Thinking about Animorphs is a lot like the game for me. It's that annoyingly ingrained into my thoughts, but I guess that's because it helped me a lot when I was younger.

By the way, when you read the above statement, you lost the game too.

What does it mean to be free?

Darn you. >_>

But I agree. Animorphs is EXACTLY like that for me. I can't not think about them constantly. Everything I do and see somehow ends up relating back to the series in some way.
