You know you're a Beatlemaniac when....
-
YOu don't wear a Beatles t-shirt to work and everyone asks, "Where's the Beatles?" Customers identify you as "the girl in that Beatle t-shirt" Everyone asks you, "So, what did you think of the tribute?" Your boss crosses the line with a practical joke, and then realizing his mistake blurts out, "Oh Oh. She's getting mad. Quick, Put the Beatles on. That'll make her happy." Your boss plays Muzak versions of the Beatles songs all day on Valentine's day to annoy you. When confronted he replied, "It's better then the originals."
-
Someone asks "oh did they get back together?" just to annoy you.

thats just harsh : (
-
Your co-workers always say, "I know you already heard about this...." and they go on to tell you something Beatle-related that of course you already know about!
-
When you fly from Australia to USA or Europe (and Japan) to see Paul, Ringo or LOVE...annually!
-
You have to wait standing about 45 minutes for a table in a crowded tiny pub, but you don't care because you can stare at a giant poster of the Beatles the entire time while drinking. and nobody cares that you are even doing this.
-
...people ask you questions about the Beatles.
-
...you want to play at least one Beatles CD every day.
-
You get into stupid fights online over who was greater: Paul or John. You find yourself defending George to his haters in Beatlefandom. You're surprised when a picture of the Beatles you haven't seen pops up on the internet.
-
...you click this thread over and over again.
-
...you go to see even the not-so-good Beatles tribute bands and when they barely look like the real Beatles at all (Ringo resembles Moe from The Three Stooges), you don't leave, you just keep taking a seat further back until it works for you.

You're a fanny gal Scarlett!
Well at least Moe had a Beatles' haircut! Now if "Paul" looked like just like Curly and you stayed then I'd say you are hardcore!

"You're a fanny gal Scarlett! lol Well at least Moe had a Beatles' haircut! Now if "Paul" looked like just like Curly and you stayed then I'd say you are hardcore" Erik, I made the mistake of using the word "fanny" in London once. It was the most freezing cold evening in January and I had just arrived in a totally packed lobby of the National Theatre, waiting for a Shakespeare production where some of the finest actors in England were performing. I told my British friend that I had just walked over and how I nearly fell on my "fanny" on the ice-covered sidewalks. With that, the entire lobby filled with British people stopped speaking... it was like one of those old EF Hutton commercials. They stared at me like I was the crudest, rudest creature on earth. My friend tried to tell me not to ever use that word again. WHAT word? Fanny??? Fanny was just a nice way of saying "-ss". I tried to tell her there was nothing wrong with that word..I told her about the Fanny Mae candy company but I got stared at even more like I was about to be thrown out of the place. My friend whispered to me what that word means in England apparently. Yikes! WHO KNEW!!!???? The Catholic school nuns would not have been happy with me that evening, no sirree.

LOL!! Too funny...two peoples separated by a common language
I guess it could have been worse as you could have said it's so cold out there that you almost froze your fanny off or you could have offered folks some of your Fannie Farmer chocolates
My wife is English so it seems I'm dealing with the language enigma on a continual basis
I always get a kick out of the names of some of their dishes -- they have sausages called "f a g g o t s", a main course called "toad in the hole", and a dessert called "spotted d i c k" just to name a few
Funny thing is if you had asked if anyone wanted to go out later for dinner as you were really craving some "toad in the hole followed by a good rich and creamy spotted d i c k" you wouldn't have raised an eyebrow.

you realize that you are one...thank god

I learned about that word from the friends I've made in this fandom. I forget what it means though

You get a message on a social network from someone who starts asking if you're that person and then describes you, describes your Beatle t-shirts and places you used to hang out at until so-called friends turned nasty. You reply cautiously due to past bad situations and learn the person is the manager of a restaurant you used to eat at until said friends got mean. He has been looking for you these past two years searching online Beatles forums until he found someone that said something that sounded like his vision of you and he knew he found you. Then he professed he had found you attractive and would like to get to know you better. true story.

Nice, KO!
