And who are we to justify the right in all we do
Until we seek, until we find Ammonia Avenue

You go to a karaoke party and when your big moment comes, are bitterly disappointed to discover that the machine does not have Thick As A Brick on it.

You're constantly spending your time off trying to discover more prog/prog-related bands.  Or more accurately, that's all you do and have no time off from your quest.

You don't think it's odd that your music-based message board of choice has 32 sub-forums.

you spend time trying to figure out what to play for friends that won't cause a two-hour debate on what music is forever damaging a close relationship and further tattering your already depraved reality.

You can't remember your cellphone number but can sing The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway from start to finish without getting a syllable wrong.

I have actually walked home with something playing on my earphones and stood in the street waiting for it to finish before going up the driveway to my family. Starless, mostly.

You are caught in a traffic jam and people look as if you were a moron because you have a face of happiness being that you have time to listen the complete Amarok by Mike Oldfield..
