Y'know, between coming here, reading about the X-Men, and writing about the X-Men, I knew my life had been a little mutant-heavy lately. I even started dreaming comic books and didn't think much of it...

Today I saw a perfectly normal guy on the street wearing shades and, for a second, fully expected him to take them off and unleash his optic beams.

I may have a problem. Dude really did kinda look like Cyclops, though.

So when do you know it's time for a comic break?

...when you're having a bad day, you flip open your windows and yell out "blow winds of fury, blow" whilst making swirling hand gestures.

You know your overdosed on X-Men when...

...you clench your fist and expect to hear a "SNIKT!"

...clipping your fingernails you're surprised that you have to do it five times instead of three

...your buddy dies and he actually stays dead.

When during a storm outside you think to yourself "I wonder what got her this angry..."
When while waiting in a traffic jam you regret that you can't fly to work.

Man, I wish I had that power. I'd go to Spanish class even less than I do now...i.e. never.

I work at a metal factory and have a big scrap bin at the end of my machine. At least three times a day I walk by it and put my hand over it, trying to lift the metal with my "magnetic powers"... then I look around to make sure no one saw me.

you imagine your magneto everytime you walk through one of those automatic opening doors, and that you're "willing" them to open.

You stab yourself with a fork and are surprised that the wound doesn't heal itself instantly.

I can't say this has happened to me with X-men but it has happened with videogames, I remember trying to turn the light on and failing and getting annoyed because it was a "bug".

No, the true, and actual X-Men overdose comes when you see an old bald white guy and your first thought is "How the heck is he walking?"

You know you're overdosed on X-Men, when working at the rental chain you work at a customer asks if you have the horror movie ''Ice Cream Man", and when you ask if they said ''Ice Cream Man?", you mess up and say ''Iceman" instead. Then to continue to dorkify yourself you say ''Ice Cream Man. Iceman. Geez. That's an X-Man."

one of my first "overdosing on xmen" moments happened a few years back.

i was walking through Super K. There were those stickers on the floor that are footprints, that lead you to a sale or whatever. ( i hope i explained that clearly enough)

up ahead on the trail to the sale, there was a palette/display of something else, with the footprints continuing on the other side. my next thought was something along the lines of "well, kitty could just walk through it instead of having to walk around it" or "if i was kitty, i could just walk through it".

i know its not particularly funny, but that is the first overdosing on xmen moment i remember.
