does anyone have a weird obsession?

Uh, hello? What board is this? My weird obsession, although *I* don't call it weird-- other people do-- is my huge obsession with "Buffy" and "Angel". Hey, if you were 'normal' and saw my room, you'd think it was weird too (my room is literally wallpapered in "Buffy"/"Angel" pictures.. I don't have any more room! I've been working on it for, like, 5 years now!).
 
My biggest obsessions include mostly tv shows: Buffy, Angel, Dark Angel, Star Trek (all of 'em). I love movies - don't think I'd call it obsessed. Books - I'm obsessed with books. I want a library in my house someday! I have lots of books I haven't even had time to read yet! Shoes and Sunglasses.
But one of my obsessions that has actually effected my life (often in a bad way) is my obsession with my body. Sometimes I think about it so much (that I want to look different - you know, have a stomach like SMG or some other actress with a great body) that I get down.

But I'm happy with my BtVS/Angel/DA etc... obsessions. I'm not obsessed in a crazy way - just totally lovin it!

Falcon, you are too cute!!!😛 I'm obsessed with tv also. I tape Buffy, Angel, Charmed, Roswell, Smallville, and Dark Angel. I have so many videotapes that it should be a crime. When I get a computer, I want to transfer them to DVD so that I can carry them around without having back pain!!!🙂 🙂
 
I would say that my biggest obsession would be tv.

I'm one of those people that can remember most everybody that has been on the shows i watch, and when i see somebody who has been on another show ( you know the people - those actors who get small roles on almost every tv show - the people who are pertinent to that episode and then move along to another show) I can almost always remember the character and show they have been on previously.

I also am pretty obsessed with fantasy books, as well as music. I don't know what i'd do without my cd's!
 
Look at my profile. Before I even posted anything on these boards, I wrote everything in there. Most of my obsessions are listed.

I think all of us are obsessed with tv, or maybe just one television show. My sister says that I shouldn't have such a huge obsession over television. I say that my obsessions make up who I am, but she says that they control who I am. Not sure whose right on that one... The way I see it; is it's good to have something that you love. 😀

I have more than 100 video tapes in my room of recorded television programs from the past couple of years. I have an obsession over my favorite television shows and my favorite celebrities. I'm currently becoming more and more obsessed with the internet. Don't get me wrong, I do try to have a normal life. Lol. I go out sometimes, but if one of my favorite television shows is on, I'm ditching everything and everyone. Whoever knows me well enough, knows not to disturb me at 8-10pm everyday of the week beside Saturday. That's when the most important of all shows are on. When I say this, I am more serious than anything; don't think I'm joking. 🙂

Okay, I'm only going to list my major obsessions:

Angelina Jolie*, Sarah Michelle Gellar*, Katie Holmes*, Alyssa Milano, Jessica Alba*, Seth Green*, Kristin Kreuk, Kirsten Dunst, Reese Witherspoon, Alyson Hannigan, Jennifer Garner*, BtVS*, Dark Angel*, Smallville, Gilmore Girls, Alias, Angel, Charmed, Roswell, Dawson's Creek, Greg the Bunny, & Survivor* 😉

I also have an obsession with combing my hair. 😕
But, I think that's about it. 😱
 
AprilBot and FiveByFiveB - I too have a lot of tapes! I started recording StarTrek when I moved to the city for University b/c then I got channels that actually played these shows! (yeah I grew up with very limited TV out in the country). Then I started watching Buffy and Angel. Soon I had so many tapes it was hard to keep track of what was where and I'd have to look through them all to see what eps of what show was on what tape! So I made a database! (I know - my friends say I'm a complete geek and way to obsessed with this stuff). I number all my tapes and I'm currently on 96 I think 🙂 Of course since Dark Angel started I've been recording that too. Oh and FiveByFiveB - I LUV Angelina Jolie as well! That's so awesome!

Anyway, enough from me 🙂 I think I've become obsessed with these kinds of boards too. I just love you guys! *HUG*

I must admit i do the exact same thing that you do! It just makes it so much easier. I label the tapes, then i have a folder where i have all the titles of episodes and the tape they are on, and then in another folder i have the episode summaries of each season of the show so that i can find the one i want to watch in the shortest period of time.
 
Ooooooook, never thought of organising our video tapes of shows/films as an obsession. We do the exact same thing - number them and have a little folder that we write what's on each tape in - that's not an obsession, that's just being sensible so that when you want to watch a particular thing, you know exactly which tape it is on, rather than hunting through about 20 before you actually find it! 'lol'

As for true obsessions, I don't think I really have any - well other people seem to think that we are obsessed with Buffy, Angel and Charmed but why they would think that is beyond me! 'lol' There is nothing abnormal about taping every single episode, watching them repeatedly, and also buying the boxsets, and under no circumstances at all letting anyone else touch them, let alone borrow them or remove them your house! Yeah, over my dead body!! 😀😀 No. not obsessed at all!
 
you know what, i think i'm gonna go home and do that i spend ages wrtiting the ep names of b&a on the little teeny bit of paper!!!

Falcon and shadow_spirit, that is a brillant idea! I've never thought of organising my tapes like that. This summer, spending a whole week to go through ever tape and make a database just like you. The summer is the only time that I'll have to do that.

My mom is saying that my tape collection is out of control. She better not make me stop buying them, though. Falcon, I also tape Dark Angel! I love the show, as you saw in my post. Angelina Jolie is a god among gods.

I love the boards here, too, and everybody on them. *Hugs to you all*🙂
 
Besides being Buffy, Angel and Dark Angel obsessed I have some strange obsessions. Like If I have fries with a meal I have to eat them first, I always do, and I won't eat an apple if it has a bruise on it. Even if it's a teeny tiny one, and thay have to be green Granny Smith apples. I'm a fussy person, I have more obsessions but I can't be bothered listing em now coz I'm eating!
 
Well, even though I'm gunna make a TOTAL FOOL outta myself for saying my obbession please dont laugh! I cant believe i'm sharing this......ok....i am totally obbessed with LEGALLY BLONDE!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Well I'm constantly being told by everyone that I'm obessed with Buffy but hey, I guess I'm proud of that! Other things...well my friends would probably tell you that I'm obessed with Prozac haha, Not taking it but I've read a few books about depression and stuff and have picked up a few stats about Prozac and other drugs and I think people are fed up hearing them...
 
My obsession has to be dancing, i dance 5 times a week, 2 times for 45 mins and 3 times for 50 mins. I do Modern and Jazz (i gave tap up, too much to do.) i'm also doing a course on street jazz. I have been in a number of productions and it might get to the point that when i do my next dancing exam, i'm paying the £50.70 myself. *lol*
I also love Buffy, Angel and Charmed!!
 
My obsessions are..hmm...collecting crosses ( necklaces), blink 182 i talk about blink 182 24/7..well..when i'm not talking about buffy or charmed, my band, guitars, cars, and making people laugh, i love nothing more then making people laugh 🙂
 
I love music and dancing, I can't listen to music without moving lol. I am so obsessed with r&b and hip hop, my cd collection is out of control. Clubbing is like therapy to me, getting to dance all night 😀

Other obsessions: David Boreanaz, fast and the furious, cookies, shopping OMG I spend soooooo much money on shoes and clothes its sad. My phone is another obsession, I always feel the need to communicate! LOL
