when you start looking forward to your next migraine as it gives you another reason to sing along to the song "Headache"
when you are constantly trying to work the word "pelagic" into everyday conversation
when music that stays in 4/4 and has phrasing in multiples of 4 bars seems somehow awkward
when, whenever someone mentions a city name, you pretend to be still listening to them, but in actuality, you're thinking about the corresponding Frank Black song
when you console everyone by saying "don't cry that way"
when everyone wonders why you're an expert on the plight of the Wiyot
when you set your voice mail to record straight to 2 track

You attend church every Sunday just so you can pray for the girls
You stay awake for 85 weeks to see if the world really does change from fur to wood grain
At a Sigfried and Roy show you can't help but call out: "Don't worry, the leopards won't bite you."
When you climb up a weedy hill just to see what you can see
You can't watch Animal Planet without "The Creature Crawling" playing in your head
You're spending too much time working on your Maitri, your Pramoda, your Karuna, and your Madhyastha
You find someone named Lorraine in the phonebook, call her up just so you can say "Goodbye Lorraine" before she hangs up on you

I know a friend of a friend who is big and red, and therefore is named Big Red. There's also a pub I visit sometimes. And the chewing gum. It would be so much easier (and I would get fewer funny looks) if I didn't start 'do do dooo' ing every time I heard that.

My kids know so many FB songs, and ask me questions about them. Like: "Why does he say 'Yesterday I will burn'?" (I finally figured out it's "Yes, today I will burn.") That was from my 7-year-old. And my 4-year-old said, about a line in the song Show Me Your Tears, "It should be 'I puked my guts OUT,' not 'I puked my guts.'"
Also, you've been listening to too much Frank if you try to trade your VCR for a pocket full of cash. And you've REALLY been listening to too much Frank if you tell the guy at the pawn shop about how Frank stopped in the middle of that song at a show recently and bitched about how a Forum member wanted him to change VCR to DVD player.

When you take your pregnant wife to an FB show (we didn't know at the time)
When your four year old son (who heard the best FB show ever in the womb) can request and sing "Dirty Old Town" from to beginning to end. It is so funny to hear his little voice and hear "And I'll cut you down, like an old dead tree" or "And I kissed my girl by the factory wall"
It was going to be Velouria if either of my two boys turned out to be girls instead.
It's crack. It's great. It gets you really high. |

A friend e-mailed the other night because he'd convinced his wife they should name their first daughter Velouria. But that's too much Pixies, not Frank.

When conversing with others, no matter what the topic, I tend to relate the situation somehow to Frank Black. For example, someone was recently talking to me about moving a lot as a child and I pointed out that Frank Black attended something like 17 different schools.
Also, someone told me a Chuck Norris joke and I pointed out that FB.net has a Chuck Norris joke thread.

I do those two a lot. My friend once said that no matter what anyone says I can think of a line in a song that is exactly the same.
And I think I once told someone to "not cry that way" or something stupid like that.

When you're forever in need of Rasthof.
When you complain to your doctor about a lump in your 'taco.'
When you get no positive results from such pick-up lines as, "I Love Your Brain" and, "Let's make bumblebee love, honey."
When you DO get positive results with such pick-up lines as, "Hey baby, you know why they call me 'The Snake'?"
...But it always leads to inevitable disappointment on their behalf... |

I'm sure there is an efficient literal translation to the way Frank likes to refer to himself as "me" alot. As in, "Got me so down", etc.
I've been told to "Quit talking like Frank Black" by my wife more than once. |
