In result you get some more days to browse unlimitedly through Team BHP as your wife will not going to talk to you at least next 2/3 days.

This is Team BHP addiction in my case.

So you got a family-infraction !!

(where you have only one MOD !! ) >> you might as well replace the "M" with a "G' there !! lolz

^ Now, even that is addiction !! (applying tbhp terms/lingo everywhere..)

1. When GTO, Yeti, HKV etc are names your family hears daily.
2. You go to any car showroom and you know more about the car than the salesman.
3. You hear about Feb 14th and the first thing that comes to your mind is 'Its TBHP's birthday'.

1. when you wake up from sleep dreamt some one had flicked your team bhp sticker.
2. when driving with friends speaking relentlessly about team bhp
3. when the first site you access on internet is teambhp.com
4. when most of the words you use are bhp,torque,detailing,ICE,turbo,carputer etc

an beautiful car arrives on the kerb, but instead of admiring the beauty you're busy checking if it has Team-BHP stickers

1. You look at your browser history to find a link and all you see is Team-BHP link with a gap of few seconds each, and the link you are looking for is buried deep some where in the T-BHP links.
2. While on road, you start looking at the rear of the cars for Team-BHP stickers.
3. You have more friends on Team-BHP than you have on Facebook, Orkut or Linkedin.

When you are thrown out of the house occasionally
When your family thinks of getting some device to block certain internet sites in your home
When you are served engine oil instead of water and grease for dipping sauce and you love them
All of this culminating in you being served a divorce notice

You hit bed at 4am only because there is power cut, and once on the bed, you take out your mobile and hit Team-Bhp mobile. This happened with me last night,

This one is good. Only thing is that you can edit your post upto 20 minutes after you click submit.

True, true!! I experienced it myself. Mine had got to the limit, where wife was shopping for her bag and asking me for a opinion while I was busy reading TBHP on the mobile. Got severely reprimanded.
Have cut down a little from there on, but only a little ah!!!

when Team-BHP inputs are working at the back of your mind even in emergencies. Like earlier this evening my daughter split(tore) her ear and had to be sutured. Wife and I rushed the little one to the hospital had her stitched up. On the way back home this car passes by at the signal. Wife asks some thing & I blankly ( No expression on my face at all) just say Alfa Romeo.
That was the trigger... am sure all married people know what happened next..

when you are least bothered by any office politics.

Frankly, office used to occupy my mind totally till late, until the TBHP bug hit me. Now I have a smile on my face everyday at office for no apparent reason. Best part is, when smses comes from fellow TBHPian during boring meetings. When everyone in a conference room is busy looking at some power point, I am busy on my mobile! Think "Fight Club". My only regret is, why I didnt start writing earlier.

Yesterday in office, I had to respond to 2 emails and the reply to both was the same. I instinctively asked my colleague, "how do you use multi-quote in Lotus?". Needless to say, he was like, Huh?!
