You know you are a mer when...

[Mermaid Fina]

I know it's a bit cliché but i like list especially the You know you are X when Y kind like for an exemple You know you are a metalhead when...and i didn't seem to find that kind of topic here and well i think it could be fun, of course this type of list are always made for community laugh and tends to be a bit exagerated and i'm going into that spirit. I try to start : 1-You know you are a mer when...you seems to can't stop collect or obsess with anything more or less mer related. 2-You know you are a mer when...some people dreams of buy themselves a big car with more money well your not even wealthy enough to have a car alone let alone a big one but you would try any big car for your first mer tail you wish for everyday. 3-You know you are a mer when...you sometimes forgot they are people who don't car about mer stuff and find them a bit weird. 4-Forget about heaven or hell you wanna go under the sea after death. 5-You want to kill whoever made this pool security rules so restrictive. 6-If you were beautiful and competent swimmer and diver enough for that nothing would stop you from choosing pro mer as first career choice. Not even family wanting that strange thing they cool "some real job" that sounds so dull and unatractive. 7-Enough of all this so mainstream unbearable earth-related music on the radio let's have a bit of sea themed music like Pirate Metal for an exemple. I love that. 8-Even if you know you are a mer when...you start to think about sea music+mer tail and the addition of ideas makes you feel uneasy imagining how you could ever dance on earth with you mer tail...i mean aquatic dance are beautiful but they probably need lot of training i'm a "baby" mermaid still dreaming her first mer tail. 9-You even thinked about such a list to begin with. 10-You jump on every far related occasion to wear a mer costum and you're the only nerd around able to understand why. Your turn!

Oh, this is a cute idea! Here's my list below (specifically applicable to me) (may not apply to others, lol):

You know you are a mer when...

1) You like having long, air-dried hair!
2) You watch Youtube tutorials on unique/fantasy hairstyles for long hair and then proceed to try those hairstyles
3) You're vain and look at yourself in the mirror every time you see a mirror
4) People say you resemble Àstrid Bergès-Frisbey
5) You're a sushi addict
6) You're allergic to trout and salmon but can eat any other kind of fish
7) You hoard seashells and jewelry even though you call yourself a minimalist
8) You have the urge to swim naked but don't because other people are around
9) You dream about water or being mermaid
10) Your zodiac is a water sign (I'm a Scorpio)
11) You marvel at every little insignificant thing and like to explore
12) You're attracted to shiny and sparkly things
13) You're napping while your boyfriend is listening to a song mentioning weed edibles feeling like a mermaid flipping her tail in the brain, and then you stir awake at that moment...perfect timing, and then your boyfriend calls you his "little mermaid" because of the timing and because you actually prefer weed edibles (would rather eat than smoke)

And you can’t go to sleep at night because you are thinking about the next tail, top, or accessory you are going to make.

When, for 2 months, you spend 20 minutes every day in ever cooler pool water, acclimating yourself to cold water so you can tail-swim in the ocean.

When you can’t decide whether to make a full silicone or a partial silicone with resin scales, so you end up starting making scales that would work for both.
I’m pretty sure I’m a crazy crafting mermaid

You are a mer when you smell something fishy. Lol. A mer has a healthy physique and tremendous endurance.
