    Lord I hate MSN... so here's the list...

    25 signs you're addicted to CrossFit

    Most of your Facebook pictures involve a barbell and a snarl.

    The first thing you do when you wake up is look online to see if the WOD has been posted.

    Reading the word 'burpees' can ruin your entire day.

    You can't start an email, feed the dog or do anything else without hearing '3 …2 …1 ... GO!' in your head.

    You've compared shin bruises and rope burns with a friend.

    You categorize your friends as 'CrossFit Friends' and 'The Others.'

    You use the term Rx more frequently than most pharmacists do.

    You've avoided shaking hands with someone because of your shredded palms. 

    You've spent more than one Friday night at home shaving your calluses.

    If you meet someone named Fran, you'll involuntarily throw up a little.

    If your house caught fire, the first thing you'd grab is your custom-made jump rope.

    You're at the gym for an hour, but you'll change your shoes at least twice.

    Your friends or family have staged an intervention. The words 'cult' or 'Kool-Aid' were used. (But you don't even DRINK Kool-Aid because it's not Paleo.)

    You no longer have to ask 'Is this Paleo?' (But you do anyway.)

    Bacon. Bacon bacon bacon. Bacon.

    You've imagined a scenario where you'd have to do handstand pushups to survive.

    There's no such thing as too much chalk.

    You have very strong opinions about thumb placement.  

    You know there was a time when you weren't sore, scraped and bruised, but you can't remember it anymore.

    You're totally cool with wearing Shin Skins outside the gym.

    You've seriously considered a tattoo of a kettlebell. 

    You know for a fact that taking your shirt off makes you go faster.

    You wouldn't know how to date someone who doesn't do CrossFit

    People don't have to ask if you're obsessed with CrossFit, because you'll happily tell them. (And you know that you're awesome because of it.)

    #26. You often refer to a fellow crossfitter as a BEAST. And you mean it in the nicest way possible.
