...you consider driving three hours to check out a poorly photographed bike from Craigslist that you don't want, isn't a bargain or even your size, but might have some really rare part on it.

you go on a family vacation, but "just check" the Craigslist bike ads in the city you are going to.

There was an old ad back in the 60's for Falcon bikes I think it was, had a picture of a guy asleep in bed, dreaming of riding his bike(cartoon bubble above his head). Aside the bed was his bike. Caption read "Too good for the shed".

You just put the family heirloom Baldwin piano on the back patio, so you can have more room to display your bike collection.

...you're known as 'that bike dude', he totally got a ride you can borrow indefinitely.
...you're hoarding parts waiting for frames and frames waiting for parts as mutually exclusive groups.
...you're calculating gear ratios instead of counting sheep to fall asleep.
