You know you need to get a life when the new Pro Audio catalog comes in the mail from B&H and you get excited. ;-)

Here is what is sad... I read those in the bathroom (EVS, B&H, Location Sound) like I'm a teenager again and these catalogs are porn...

Maybe that is the ultimate sign that you are addicted to audio / visual: You read catalogs like they are porn... This might require a top ten list.

Signs that you are addicted to audio / visual
1. You are watching kids play soccer and think that it would look better in 24p
2. You are having a conversation with someone and you think what mic would be best for this situation
3. You get excited everytime there is a thread on what mic to buy
4. You use color corrected bulbs in your house, just in case
5. You carry an ME66 in your pocket in case you ever need to get into a fight just so you can prove that the mic has a purpose
6. Your life would be complete if only you could get...
7. You own a T-shirt that says 'Sennheiser'
8. Staring at your bowl of Ramen noodles and a massive credit card bill you rationalize it by saying: 'But this mic sounds so good"
9. You buy generic cereal, use regular gas in a car that takes high test, bring a lunch instead of buying one, and smoke generic cigarettes, but believe if it isn't Schoeps it's crap!
10. You read the EVS & B&H catalog like they were porn

OK, mindless fun :)

Only guillty of about half those things, am I still an addict? (No Sennheiser T-shirt but I have a Schoeps baseball cap).

BTW, my Spring 2006 B&H Audio catalog arrived yesterday and it is all mangled. Is it wrong that I have a homicidal desire to "punish" my mailman?

Cheers
 
Well Phil that is awesome and glad to know another member of the tribe...

With that list, I don't know, just was having fun this morning, but I think if you have any clothing with a company on it, and you have worn it, then that makes you an addict.

-Jeremy
 
um, yeah, im kinda also a semi-detached member of "the tribe". :)

I got my Canford audio (UK) catalogue "The Source" the other day... full colour with fun stuff. Expensive compared to the states prices, but go to canford.co.uk and sign up for it. Good afternoon of drooling.

My B&H must be in the mail... its got further to go than you guys.

Trees are so last season Oleg. :)
 
We have our own little tribe here on DVXUser... That's awesome... This thread still makes me laugh though

But Phil, at least you can get a break looking over the latest greens at sweet maria's. But the eternal question, new roaster or new mic...
