*Your gear is worth more then your car (Or in my case, more then 3 of mine)
*When someone mentions crack, you are thinking Indian Creek, not drugs
*You wonder what the rock facade of your office building goes at
*You can't understand why people don't know what cams or stoppers are
*You choose your honeymoon based on what climbing is available
*Your car is covered in dig-me stickers (I have been told this is a good way to alert LEOs to the presence of marijuana in your vehicle)
No matter what you are explaining about to someone; business, your love life, your family, politics, thought processes, you Always use a climbing metaphor.

one point of paw contact.
*You get a new ledge, and test it out by hanging it off your 3rd floor balcony and have lunch on it with your S.O. (My neighbors actually loved this)
*You are overdue for new glasses and buy a new set of offsets instead
*Your office decorations are all climbing related
