On a similar note, when you're glad an editing job fell through so you can watch all of the Pairs SP on the livestream...

When you received national flags from 12 differen countries you have ordered, and still thought " maybe, I need more? "
Yay, I am heading Saitama now
Did you see my post about flags from a couple of weeks ago in the "Random Confessions" thread over in Le Café?
https://www.goldenskate.com/forum/s...-Confessions&p=2353936&viewfull=1#post2353936
You definitely need more!
I like so many skaters from so many different countries that if I ever get to a big competition like this, I am going to need a separate suitcase just for the flags!
And that is one of the many things I like about figure skating fans. We do tend to spread our love and support across lots of skaters. And unlike with fans of other sports, it doesn't matter to us if they are the same nationality as we are or not. We love them all the same.
Have a great time at Worlds, lady_bee!!!

When you see this on Ebay and think, now here is a stuffie I want to throw someone: https://www.ebay.com/itm/6-5-Ft-2M-...istmas-Gift-/372528257609?hash=item56bc6a1a49

That is really creepy seeing it unfilled. It is like one of those trophy pelts that hunters have.
So, the unfilled bear costs $50. How much on top of that would it cost for the stuffing to fill it? I would imagine that the total price would be at least $100.
And just being willing to pay that much for a gift shows that you are a figure skating fan! :agree:

And I would totally throw it to someone from one of the smaller Feds. It would be SO FUN.

When your hungry friend's stomach makes a really bizarre noise and you think that it sounds like it should be part of the music in a sci-fi-themed EX that a skater should be doing twizzles to. 
It sounded "swirly", if that makes any sense.

You remember this post that I put up at the end of 2018:
Well, I suppose you could say that I did the same over Easter. To a certain extent anyway.
As I already posted this morning, I watched "High Society" on Monday. Although I already knew a couple of songs from it, I wanted to hear the others to see if there were any that were suitable for skating to.
And last night, I taped a film which has been the theme for a few skating routines that I have seen (not least by the new Mrs. Shulepova).
All I knew about "Suicide Squad" was that it was a spin-off from "Batman", and that Margot Robbie was in it. So, to get an idea of what it might be like, I decided to watch the trailer first.
Suffice to say, that was enough for me to change my mind about watching it!
I was not expecting it to be an action film. AT ALL! For goodness sake, it's a "Batman" spin-off! And "Batman" isn't an action film series. At least, it wasn't the last time I watched it. Then again, that was when Adam West was Batman and Burt Ward was Robin. So, things might have changed a bit since then...
Well, at least "High Society" was good. And so was the other film I watched that didn't have any figure skating connections ("Hop").

You see a photo of some figure skaters online and immediately start trying to figure out who they are.

When after the season is over, you keep making photos of sakura trees, buy a mug a scarf and an actual sakura tree, even though you have never liked pink. But you can't get the image out of your head of the beautiful K&C in Japan during the WC, as well all the pictures of the skaters in Japan under the blossoming sakura trees. So, my spring has been very pink because of that

... you buy another little Pooh Bear in advance of next year's World Championships (I threw one out on the ice @ 2016 Boston Worlds). We attended our closest SOI show (late April) in Hershey, PA. The day after we stopped @ the outlet stores, there. One of our "must stops" is The Disney Store. My husband suggested that I pick up a little Pooh bear for Yuzu, assuming he'll compete in Montreal next season. We do plan to attend those Worlds (thank goodness the tickets will finally go on sale later this week).
When Google starts combining your watch history of Russian figure skating and your cat's hockey viewing (he likes to chase them on the screen) and you start getting Russian hockey scores. 
I've been getting alerts on my phone about hockey scores, I recognized names like the Bruins and Sharks, but then I started getting alerts about these strange names, I just kept clearing the notifications and didn't think too much about it (didn't particularly care either) until I saw CSKA (recognized that name) and I realized what it was that I was getting.
