IChoseFreeWill Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 When you have a dream within a dream, and it is about Rush. And in the bigger dream you remember how cool the Rush dream is.
The Lost Xanadu Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 When a commerical for a cd set of 'Classic Rock Songs' comes on they play a clip of 'Closer to the Heart', you yell "YEAH! RUSH!"
Good,bad,andrush Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 QUOTE (IChoseFreeWill @ Dec 12 2010, 07:39 PM) When you do not disagree with practically any of their lyrics...even though you are NOT an atheist by any stretch of the imagination. I am agnostic/atheist. But my mother is not. I showed her the lyrics to Faithless and Freewill, and she said that they were brilliant. She said she feels comfortable with a God, but she thinks it's cool that an atheist can be just as loving or hopeful as a religious person.

The Lost Xanadu Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 When you plan a trip to London/Paris for your honeymoon and on the flight back...you find out that you'll be making a stop at the Toronto Pearson Airport...also known as YYZ. You chuckle a bit at this and your fiance asks "What?" and you just simply say "Nothing..."

You know you're a Rush fan when you bring up Rush as an example of telent whenever someone brings up Justin Bieber.
CMWriter Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 QUOTE (Snow-Dog2112 @ Jan 2 2011, 12:22 AM) you instantly start screaming like a little girl when rush walks out on stage Thankfully, I am a fairly young female, so I can do that and no one will look at me funny. Except for the man standing next to me. Who is my father. (But he does that all the time just to annoy me.) You know you're a Rush fan (and everyone knows it, too) when you're watching TV and your folks make a point to point out whenever someone says the word "rush".
IChoseFreeWill Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 When a friend posts something about flights from JAX to TOR (meaning the Jacksonville and Toronto airports) and you quickly recognize that the airport code for Toronto is not TOR, it is YYZ. And you have not even been to Toronto yet! When you name your iPod "Geddy Lee".
x_analog_kid_x Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 (edited) When you're at a Rush show and you see Neil smile on the big screen, and promptly scream "OH MY GOD! THE PROFESSOR SMILED! HOLY SH*T!!!" Strangely, this was not me, but my father. Love you, dad. When you join a thread of people talking about "the end of the world" in 2012, and you cant help but tell them that it's impossible, because of the story of what is to happen in 2112. [Edited because I didn't want to make another post.] Edited January 10, 2011 by x_analog_kid_x
Oracle Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 When you get excited to go to a Marathon gas station. When you instantly think of the 'Oracle' section of '2112' whenever Oracle Software is mentioned (seriously, google it!).
CMWriter Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 You know you're a Rush fan when... ...you get a smart phone and the VERY FIRST things you do are: - Put all the Rush-related pictures on your computer onto your phone - Set a photo of Neil as your background - Upload a few "must-have" Rush tunes into your phone's MP3 player - Download an Adobe Reader app and stick your ebook of Ghost Rider in it - Change your ringtone to "Force Ten" because you know for a fact no one else will have that ringtone (I love my new phone so much.)
I know i'm going bald Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 ....you have followed them for nearly 35 years !!!
hunter Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 You booked reservations at the Marine Room in La Jolla. Not because of the great food or awesome view, but because it's on Spindrift Drive.
IChoseFreeWill Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 You look up "Professor Pratt" online...and are disappointed when none of the results on the first page pertain to Neil Peart!

Yes, I notice lately that no matter the situation or context, I can think of an appropriate Rush lyric.
1 of the 7 Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Aww, the dragon is so cute, he's the same one in all the pics at the Rush show, right? Love how he sits on the top of the equipment like Rush's stuffed animals do on theirs
CMWriter Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 You know you're a Rush fan when... ...At a high school basketball game, you start yelling "SO CLOSE! SO CLOSE!" when the score is 22 - 13. (It really was close. ;^; I was disappointed.)

You know you're a Rush fan when you get a score of 21-12, with your Augusta State Jaguars leading the game, AND you get a picture of it. http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn207/Xanadu93/100_0627.jpg Also, we won the game and advanced to the Division II Elite Eight for the third year in a row. umadyet?
In A Tidewater Surge Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 (edited) You know you're a Rush fan when your name is Tim and you complain daily about not having a girlfriend, but you look like a gopher with an afro and a mustache. Umadyet? Edited January 17, 2011 by In A Tidewater Surge
Xanadu93 Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 You know you're a Rush fan when your post doesn't relate to the topic. BTW, I know I'm a Rush hipster when I say "they were better with Jeff Jones"
Xanadu93 Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Also, Tj, you should have said "when your name". Since you didn't use the correct expression, your post and argument are both invalid.
