you don't class wearing a LotR costume as "dressing up" - you class wearing normal clothes as dressing up.

* When you mention in class that you want to move to New Zealand, everyone groans and your teacher sighs "Oh no, this because you want to go and find Legolas, isn't it?"
* You scream "NO!!!!!" and take real insult at the remark.

You not only but the vanilla DVD releases of the trilogy, you buy the extended editions, make comparisons as you watch the two and play a game with your friends called "Spot the Extra Scenes!"
Everyone in your school knows you as "the nut who read LOTR in a week."
I actually did do that ;D

Yeah, most of these are from personal experience...
* When you go to the cinema at the weekend, you don't recognize a girl who used to be in your year, but you DO notice that they still have LOTR cups behind the counter from ROTK.
* You beg for one.
* When you get it, you put it on your desk next to all your OTHER LOTR cups.
* On the journey home, when you friend accidentally sits on it, you shout "DON'T SQUASH THE PRECIOUS!!!!!!" and hug it.
Yeah, I don't think that friend'll be asking me to the cinema again soon...

You don't have tickets to see the movie at 8:00, but wait around for three hours in the multiplex to catch the late night screening.
You're willing to spend good money to watch a lame chickflick just to pass the time until your precious movie starts.

* You know the name of EVERY SINGLE ACTOR in LOTR. Well, not all the extras, but all the ones credited.
* You can also recognize each of the special effects guys from watching the EEs so much.

You've watched the extended editions, then watched them again and again, each time listening to the commentaries (and I mean ALL of them).
You've watched the EEs 24min end credits and can recognize a name you know mentioned in the LOTR Fan Club.
My this is fun!

-You insist upon singing along (however badly) to the credits...in a cinema...(the stewards looked a little surprised)
-You want to get some LotR-related t-shirts to wear to school next year. And perhaps a bag. Or two. And maybe some jewellery...
