11. You get goose pimples in case of strange noises from your SE4 Hard Drive.
12. Trembling from head to foot if the Hard Drive has died.
13. You bite the postman's leg, every day he does not deliver SE 4 Gold.
14. You cannot open a door without a minesweeper.
15. You see your car's fuel gauge and think: solar panels times stars divided by 10 times number of engines...

You put notes on your neighbors' front doors, informing them that ancient treaties stipulate that their houses belong to you.


You sit in traffic wishing you had a wave motion gun, or at least a repulser beam.

21. You look out for a wife with enhanced reproduction characteristics, non-existent political savvy and low maintenance costs.
22. You see your mother-in-law with a car break-down and think: ... no, my repair aptitude is pathetic.
23. You see a blonde sex bomb with a car break-down and all of a sudden your repair aptitude changes to impressive.
24. You flush the toilet, go 3 steps forward, 2 steps back.

25. You threaten to Planetary Napalm your neighbors car, then go "ah, damn. My troops are on the planet- can't do that."
26. when your car runs out of gas, you're pissed that it won't move.
27. You're proud of your car's supply storage- it gets 280 sectors a tank!
