You realize you're visiting BITOG too much when ..

[TrevorS]

...... the temps on the fridge freezer read "0" and "30" and you immediately think "German Castrol".

How do you know when you're spending too much time on oil?

 

[TwoTrackinFool]

lmao

 

[ARB1977]

Can't get enough bitog. Learn something new everyday. My wife thinks I'm obsessed though.

 

[Turk]

You realize you've not visited BITOG enough when...

You haven't been around long enough to know there's been multiple threads on this.

 

[JethroBodine]

You tell the wife you are taking the dog out so he can PP

 

[cat843]

Your wife tell you its her or BITOG and you say "I'm going to miss her".

 

[jeepman3071]

When you offer to change the oil in friend's vehicles just so you know it is done correctly.

And then you pull out a quart of it from the freezer to check how it's flowing.

 

[A_Harman]

...you start planning your oil changes far in advance. Right now I have a list of oils to try in the Camaro that will take me years to go through.

M1 5w30 HM, check
Redline 5w20/5w30 blend, check
M1 0w40/5w30 HM blend, check
Redline 5w30 neat, check
Joe Gibbs LS30, in progress
PU 5w30/PU 5w40 Euro blend, coming up
AMSoil HDD 5w30, coming up
GC, coming up

 

[SatinSilver]

You start installing shelves in the den and line up empty quart bottles of PYB floor to ceiling.

 

[daves66nova]

You start wondering what weight maple syrup is,during the Summer and during Winter.

 

[Stelth]

You notice that butter has a very low viscosity index.

 

[friendly_jacek]

... you use BITOG for social networking and porn (oil/filter porn that is).

 

[Nick R]

When on the computer at work the 2nd most visited page on chrome is BITOG, 2nd only to my work email.

I do this, as well as vehicle repairs!

Also, when you offer your home/tools to someone wanting to do their own oil change.

When you hungrily wait for the monthly auto parts store mailers for deals.

When you go to a gas station for a soda and check out their oil stock first.

When your wife says you spend too much time, "looking at that oil website."

When you browse the oil filter catalog at your auto parts store like you are looking at Playboy.

It's certainly been done before by BITOGers.

 

[artificialist]

If you tell people you meet about the articles you read, and they think you have an engineering degree, you might be a BITOGer.

 

[Clevy]

It irritates you to hear oil grades referred to as weights and even though the point is understood you feel the need to correct them.
You get angry when an oil filter is on tighter than half a turn
Freak out if there isn't a new crush washer on the drain bolt
You pay more attention to oil pressure and oil temp than you do speed.
You feel the need to "help" everyone in the oil aisle.
Bitog is a curse I tell ya.
