"You Know You're a Manny-Ac to the Bone
(And in Dire Need of Serious Psychiatric Help) If ..."
By Carla

  • You check the Mannyac board at least 50 times a day, and scream in frustration if new posts don't arrive
    every minute.

  • You sing praises to the goddess kristi for creating the Mannyac Board.

  • You spend several hours a day at the computer (by yourself or with other people you've never even met),
    analyzing, dissecting, and agonizing over the twitches, glances, intonations, movements and other
    subtle actions of a couple of fictional characters who haven't even made it to the real sack yet!

  • You used to really like vegetables, but now find them rather un-appetizing and just plain annoying.

  • You used to think blond was dreamy, but now, the dark look gives you delicious shivers.

  • You think PAS is another acronym for God.

  • It's "Joie to the World," silly.

  • You want your significant other to greet you "Morning, sexy!" and follow though with the appropriate
    body motions.

  • You never really liked the name Daniel (Michelle) before, but are now seriously considering that name for
    your first born. Actually, you've already decided.

  • You meet someone named Jesse (or Drew or Carmen), and find an instant dislike to this person.

  • You now treat your wedding ring like it's the most important thing in the world, even though you were
    never into sentimental stuff like that before.

  • You daydream of Danny, Michelle or both.

  • You dream of Danny, Michelle and their children.

  • You see connections to the Manny saga in your literature class.

  • Your classmates/friends/family say "Can't you talk about anything else?"

  • Your classmates/friends/family think that "Danny and Michelle" are actually real people.

  • Certain spoilers to a fictional show either give you heart attacks or make you do jumping-jacks-for-joy.

  • Your husband is threatening divorce because you keep talking about and comparing him to that guy
    Danny/Paul Anthony Stewart.

  • Your new mantra: "PAS is the MAN!"

  • Your new war cry: "Let Morticia rot with the Feds!"

  • You have every Guiding Light episode with Manny on tape. Worse, those tapes have holes (due to over
    watching) which correspond to scenes containing two particular characters.

  • Instead of buying that much needed ????, you buy a second VCR so that you can make a separate tape of
    just Manny scenes.

  • You'll do anything to get Manny compilation tapes.

  • Weekends used to be heaven, but are now worse than hell.

  • You have always hated writing, but have now suddenly found your muse. You write moving poems,
    eloquent essays and phenomenal stories (and heaven forbid, XXX-scenes) about two particular
    characters.

  • You once hated endearments, especially "Baby" but now secretly wish your S.O. would call you that.

  • Thoughts of Manny make it really hard for you to do real-life things, like --- sleep, make dinner, pay the
    bills, go to class, perform job duties.

  • You've developed a thing for black leather jackets.

  • You write GL to ask when Danny and Michelle are going to Majorca so you can plan your next vacation
    there at the same time.

  • You can quote from memory Danny's "I am a MAN" speech and wedding vows.

  • You no longer have a life outside the Mannyac board.

  • Your only pleasures come from watching your Manny tapes or reading Manny fanfic.

  • You write fanfic authors, "Give me that next chapter, OR ELSE!"

  • Finally ... You make up really stooooopid lists like this.
