You Know You Love Terry When…

I know a lot of people make lists like these around the net for different people, but they always put "You Know You Love Too Much...." I will not do this for Terry, because there is no "too much."

* indicates that the author is indeed guilty.

1. The only tapes at your house consist of Batman Beyond episodes and movies.
2. You lock up the remote to be sure the station never strays from the WB.
3. You keep a key for it, how else would you record each and every episode?
4. You don't mind doing it manually, either, you already watch it with your face plastered to the screen, what's the difference.*
5. You watch him in all three time zones of the U.S.*
6. Your friends tease you about buying purple underwear to match his boxers.
7. You did.
8. They don't even bother teasing you, for fear they will give you ideas.*
9. You will dress up as Batgirl every Halloween.
10. No one cares as you do it everyday.

20. All the WB animators know you by name.
21. Animators? What animators? He's real!*
