You know you're addicted to Orbiter when...

...when you buy a laptop because (1. You broke the last one orbiting too hard, and (2. You're going to the supermarket
...when one more second means a whole mission
...when you make a laser image of :probe: on the moon :hailprobe:
...when you spend 3 millennia digging the probe into the moon by hand
...when you found a church for the probe, and attain 5 million members
...when you become the next pope and force everyone to worship the probe
...when you go back in time and show cavemen an image of :probe: :stirpot:
...when you create a universe filled with :probe:
...when the sky is not the limit, it's really your PC power
...when you have a near-death experience and see the probe
...when God decides that heaven is too lame for you and instead gives you Orbiter 10585
...when Hell is really a parallel universe with no Orbiter!
...when your conscience is really an UMMU named Steve
...when you hear voices saying "Go play Orbiter"
...when you say "Crap life" and code your soul into the computer so you can play Orbiter for eternity
...when your list of ways you're addicted to Orbiter goes around the earth 42 times
...when you can't afford rocket fuel so you eat burritos every night and do stuff and power your rockets with fart gas :focus:

Bonus points if you eventually use this as the ejection seat system.:rofl:
 
Sorry. There's nothing 'natural' about that gas. :thumbup:
 
when you find yourself enthusiastically watching the STS-135 docking maneuver live feed and notice you actually know what those numbers on the nasa screens mean :lol:
 
I've got two:

When you have O2006 also installed just so you can use David413's Shuttle Fleet Expansion Packs.

When you know Orbiter's hierarchy and processes so well, you know how to work around that and make all of that work for O2010.

When you wish you lived HERE for the rest of your life.

It'll make a nice vacation location. :)

EDIT: ...when you notice that NASA mission control uses Windows XP (guilty although I'm not 100% sure it's XP...)
