A similar thread can be found on the SYL message board. A quick search told there was not a thread like this here, so forgive me if I fucked up. And... I didn't start the thread on the SYL board, that honor goes to Greg. :)

Well, shall we?

-you repeatedly wake up sweating from the scream in Things Beyond Things, but still listens to Ocean Machine EVERY night
-you start doing jazz hands and singing "Baaaaad devoool, baaaaad devoool" everytime you hear someone playing the piano
-you decide to live at the beach until you actually see the seventh wave

(okay, that last one was kinda crap :P )

-Whenever you meet your friend's girlfriend, you demand that she should "Get down there and suck my Buddy's cock".
-You actually have considered having a skullet...
-...you actually did get a skullet.
-When you're pissed off at someone, you scream SYL lyrics.
-Every time you see a moth you yell "Sing Maute Dingaaass!".
-You have considered naming your son Devin...
-...you actually have named your son Devin.
-You can't watch Phantom of the Opera without thinking about "Christeen".

"Get down there and suck my Buddy's cock".

Hey that was on the SYL dvd :). I thought it was "body's", though. Me and my English.
Btw, I always wonder what happened there in the middle of OMFG. They stopped playing and some stuff happened.

I'm guilty of all these...

-when you lose a cd and mourn its loss as if it were a person. (i found it again its ok dont worry)

-just as someone is about to play an instrument you yell "play that stupid piece of shit!!!"

-if someone says to eat your beets you automatically answer "recycle, recycle"

-whenever you see an olive you start speaking in slow motion.

-you start having dreams about what synchrestra will sound like

-Whenever you or anybody else mentions the name Christeen you hafta add 'that's all I ask of you.'

-you see some ants, put on the song 'Ants' and hold the headphones up to them so they can listen.

-when you eat a box of Life cereal you yell "LIFE IS ALL DYNAMICS!!!"

-When you're leaving and someone asks if youre ready to go, you immediately think of 'Victim' and yell "I'M READY TO GO! SO READY TO GO! SO READY TO GO!"

You mean it isn't Body's? Me and a few buddies were debating this for some time and I always thought it was Body's. It made more sence, because to me the lyric seperated physical from emotional to an extremity, and I thought that was the point. Pure vulgar lust.

Regardless of the intent or what he's actually saying, I will be stuborn and still scream, "get down and suck my body's cock". It's much more vulgar that way.

- You use the Smart Playlist function for a playlist of your 25 most played tracks on your iTunes and they are all by Devin Townsend.

- The most beautiful sound you ever heard is still that bell ringing in "Unity."

- You are constantly saying, "It's this Canadian musician who owns his own label. He's a genius," to anyone who asks what that is that you're listening to.

- You bought a fuckin' t-shirt.

Ha, okay. Well, I guess this itself would be worth a statement, right?



You know you're into Devin Townsend, when...

-the most beautiful sound you ever heard is Infinity's opener "Truth"

So... I'll give a 4 out of 4.

I guess you haven't heard much of SYL live :) Well they allways have a break at this point in the song, and Dev does some babbling with the crowd, allways good stuff going on. The "Get down" part is now famous :D

Back to the topic :

- You're into it when you hear yourself singing loudly "La la la la la" with a tiny voice during Namaste (and in OMFG too!!)

-You adress people as "ladies and gentlemen"

-Consider buying an extra t-shirt for your ugly girlfriend

-You DID buy a t-shirt for your ugly girlfriend

-When you tell your rabbi that the closest way to god is through the album Infinity (I'm guilty of that one)
