375. When you hijack/invade/take over your older brother's room because it's the only place in your house suitable for animating (the brother doesn't live in the house any more, which is why I can get away with this 
)
376. When you cover the floor of said room with boxes and heaps of LEGO bricks because you're busy building loads of sets.
377. When you spend hours brick-filming instead of having dinner.
378. - When you forget you had a window beneath all those taped cardboard sheets that were blocking out the light in your room.
379. You start to tap-dance after you finish a difficult shot.
380. When you judge your worth as a human being by how smoothly you can do a pan shot.

387. When things like BRAWL or THAC are the highlights of your year.
388. When you're looking for the new LEGO catalog in every shop that sells LEGO in January
389. When you're animating and suddenly ask yourself whether it's day or night
390. When you're starting to write scripts based on your dreams or even your real life (if there's anything happening except for brickfilming).
391. When you're meeting somebody, talk about hobbies, say something like "In my freetime, I'm brickfilming" and you know EXACTLY that the next thing the other one does is asking you what the hell a brickfilm is.
392. When you're watching a movie and start thinking about how you'd have animated that scene if it was a brickfilm you were making.
393. When you go on holiday and take some of your LEGO with you because otherwise you'd miss it.
394. When you get tired of trying to explain people who say you have no hobbies or life that brickfilming IS a hobby.
395. When you start telling yourself: "I'm a brickfilmer! I can do that!" in difficult situations.
396. When people start telling you that you're crazy because you're buying a really expensive camera "just to take pictures of lego" with it.
397. When most of your Skype contacts are brickfilmers.
398. When the abbreviation "FPS" doesn't make you think of video games or popular YouTube channels.
399. When school is over and the first thing you think is:"Yessss, now I can go home to animate!"
400. When you don't tidy up your room anymore because you kow exactly if you did it, two hours after you did it LEGO bricks were everywhere again.

401. At church (or wherever), the day after BRAWL, you're telling one of your friends about what you did last night--that is, animating until 11:00 at night. And they have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
402. When you can't remember the exact spot where the minifig belongs, when it falls over--and you're in the midst of animating a shot.
403. When you've got four additional Tabs open on your Internet--plus, you're also animating--and your computer gets so overwhelmed, that it basically freezes.
