You know you've played too much Mario Kart when...

In no particular order...

  1. You start searching your car for turtle shells to shoot at the car that just cut you off
  2. While at the front of the line at a stoplight you pray the guy in back doesn't have a blue shell
  3. While stuck in traffic you wonder if there's a secret route just off the road that will give you a speed boost
  4. You look extra closely at that piece of litter to make sure it isn't a shiny, rainbow box
  5. The guy in the car next to you looks strikingly like Wario
  6. You think that your brakes are the same thing as the B button and will give you a speed boost if you skid the curve
  7. You think the guy in the motorcycle next to you must be cheating, only karts are allowed on this 50cc highway
  8. You think that if you push on the gas at just the right moment coming out of a stoplight you'll get an extra burst of speed
  9. You start judging the weight of the cars next to you wondering if you can push them out of your way.
  10. You avoid that discarded banana peel because you know it'll make you spin out
