You know you’re an AutoGeek when….
1. PB means Poorboys not peanut butter
2. PC means Porter Cable not personal computer
3. DD means daily driver and not a woman’s bra size
4. GQ means garage queen not gentlemen’s quarterly magazine
5. (for us locals) you are willing to drive an hour or two to get your favorite AG products.
6. You make pre-schoolers take their shoes off immediately upon entering your car.
7. You have more pictures of cars than your kids stored in your digital camera.
8. You size up and mentally detail the cars you see on the road and in parking lots.
9. You use AT LEAST 3 products for every part of your car.
10. You will let your kids starve a little bit until you can find to a McDonalds rather than let them eat or drink in the car.
11. You purposely park in the farthest away parking spot possible.
12. The money that you spend in a year on your car is more than the gross national product of a small country.
13. Door dings are a justified reason for clinical depression.
14. Spending 10 hours over a weekend detailing your car not only is fun for you, you can’t wait to get started.
15. You case your neighborhood for shady spots.
16. You never, ever park under a tree.
17. You carry a detail kit in your car trunk "in case of an emergency".
18. You dream about cars almost every night.
19. After detailing, your car smells like a fruit salad.
20. You use 3 or more buckets to wash the car.
21. When watching movies or tv you often spend so much time scrutinizing the cars that you totally lose sight of the plot of the show.

My wife was complaining that our bath towels were getting too stiff. I told her to start using a seperate fabric softener or a cup of vinegar in the wash...
...and then I caught hell when she found out I had bought almost a $100 bucks worth of mf towels for our cars.
I told her that skin heals...clearcoat doesn't. That didn't go over well either.

I hope I never become that addicted.
8. You size up and mentally detail the cars you see on the road and in parking lots.
When my wife notices me staring down a dirty car, she asks if I feel like I have to wash the car...a la Monica from "Friends" who couldn't sleep knowing Ross's ex-girlfriend had a dirty apartment and volunteered to clean it.
11. You purposely park in the farthest away parking spot possible.
I think that's how I lost 12 pounds recently...from all of the walking.

Used some OCW yesterday...got really thirsty smelling the pina colada scent. Im the MAN

You know your an autogeek when.... [all are true]
Your mother tells you to clean some stains out of the carpet, and you grab woolite and your PC brush attachments
You are told to clean the shower, and after bleaching you apple Klasse twins to the shower, and rainX to the glass door.
You are told to clean the windows, and use stoners and a blue pad. Then wipe off with a MF towel.
Your mother hides your porter cable from you saying it does more work than you around the house.....
When trying to go and take a nap, your mother asks you for the dressing and you leave a bottle of armor all tire gell on the table... still havent hear the end of that one...
You know your an autogeek when half your check is gone and autogeek receipts fall from the sky near your printer every friday.
You know your an autogeek when you carry a mini duster in your glovebox at all times and whenever you stop, you promptly dust your car.
You know your an autogeek when your stepdad sas bring up Triple X, and you give him a small white container made by chemical guys......
You know your an autogeek when you grin about everything you do when when someone walks past your mid 90's car saying holy ####, beautiful detail! When they ask who did it, and you say why I did, and can mean it, everythings worth it
I have more, but I think ill keep my last shread of dignity

When you wash your car at 2 in the morning, while its raining, and its winter time.
When your girlfriend threatens to break up with you if you don't stop cleaning your car and you take that chance.
Instead of doing a chinese fire drill at a red light, you jump out qd parts of your car.
When you call your car baby, not your girlfriend.
When you get into a fight becuase someone touched your car wrong.

You go to DQ after a QD.
Your workout with a PC and you relax reading the PC (the AGO site of course!).
Your wife now refers to the car as The Mistress and wonders if she can be a car in her next life!
Neighbor's dog barks at his reflection in your car.
Neighbor's kid calls and asks you to move your car before he cuts his grass. Whether your car is clean or dirty!
