307 your desktop only has icons of movie scripts on it
308: When you realise your hobby is sitting in a dark room taking pictures of lego
309: When you start referencing brickfilms in everyday conversation with people
310: when you get to school and tell your best friend and anyone willing to listen that yesterday was great because you spent 6 hours in your room and animated a 20 second scene which looked great! And they zone out.
311: you try to explain to everyone what 4k means, why it matters to them, and why it's awesome that you can shoot at that quality without a red cam. Even if it's just Lego. 
(and when you find that you need to buy an external hard drive to store your original footage. True story. Yesterday's shoot took the free space on my dad's hard drive from 40 free gigabytes down to 3. In one day!)
312: you carry a little notebook around in your backpack wherever you go to write down ideas for Brickfilms.
313: most of your favorite songs, or just when you listen to music, makes you want to animate the lyrics.

314: When you are in school and you are asked to say one of your hobbies and when you say brickfilming everybody gives you a funny look.
315: when 16/9 has special meaning....
@ Cooked Cat
Don't you mean 16 x 9, not divided by? Or are you referring to when it's written 16:9? Because when I say it, I always say "sixteen by nine" which is like sixteen times nine, right?
Or when 2.39:1 doesn't just look like a random string of numbers
I've debated whether to shoot at 2.39:1 or 1.77:1 (16x9) but I've settled on 16x9.
Okay sorry for going off topic.
316 When going to buy a new camera, you take some LEGO-s with you to the store.

@Cooked Cat
In my case it does because my laptop is right next to my set. Before I did this There were weird bluish tints in my lighting.
So yes, it does help

317: You fall asleep in class because you animated for 4 hours the previous night.
318:You can't stop talking about Lego.
319: Just say to your friend "I'M A BRICKFILMER" "YOUR A BRICKFILMER" "BRICKFILMING TOGETHER IS FUN"
and when the teachers say when you ever say this like that i say 
" sometimes i do!"
320: You know your a brickfilmer, because your epic!
321. You are the only one at school that knows that Forrestfire has made other content besides "The Duck Song".
(And no, I'm not a fan of him, the only thing I like about him is how smooth his brickfilms are).

Hahaha! Bobby Lee!
322: When your dad gets mad at you because you are making too much "noise" while brick filming at night. (Actually happens to me)
323: When you can come up with a title that does not contain the word "Lego".
324) Your parents ask why you were up at 3 in the morning, and your only answer is: "I was brickfilming."
325. You buy Lego for no reason and Wasted your money.
326. You say "That's a good idea for a BrickFilm."
325. You buy Lego for no reason and Wasted your money.
You can't waste your money on LEGO.
