Your children only get map cakes!

When you take your GPS on a rollercoaster

When you map in the face of danger!

You can convert degrees of latitude / longitude to meters in your head var R = 6378.137; // Radius of earth in KM var dLat = (lat2 lat1) * Math.PI / 180; var dLon = (lon2 lon1) * Math.PI / 180; var a = Math.sin(dLat/2) * Math.sin(dLat/2) + Math.cos(lat1 * Math.PI / 180) * Math.cos(lat2 * Math.PI / 180) * Math.sin(dLon/2) * Math.sin(dLon/2); var c = 2 * Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), Math.sqrt(1 a)); var d = R * c; return d * 1000;

You get excited by anew planet.osm dump every weekand buy huge new diskdrives and Bluerays to keep them on

And then you spend a few hours to extract the planet to get a dailyupdate in the growth of the planet, in bytes. 391915765760.02719321 bytes

You still have your tiles@home server farm sitting idle in the cupboard at work

More dysfunction...

You run for OpenStreetMap Foundation Board ...as a troll

You fork OSM

You reject the contributor terms

OCOSMD-ceptionWhen you do a talk about Addiction to OSM When you do a slidein the talk about the slide in the talk about Addiction to OSM

You run out of things to map, and soyou start mapping things that might be there. Like Ley lines 竜行

When you run a mapping party

When you mapped...

And mapped...

And mapped....

When you spend your evenings writing an OSM application 2285 openstreetmap repositories

When you spend your weekends maintaining the OSM servers

When you are in the Licensing Working Group

When you are in the Licensing Working Group …. and like it!

When some things seem not that important...

GeoCaching

Foursquare

Craigslist

WHERES THEATTRIBUTION?!1!?!

When know who FakeSteveC is

When you ARE FakeSteveC

When you import the buildings around your neighbourhood of OSM into your open source flight simulator just so you can fly over them

You choose the most expensivechair in IKEA to serve your armchair mapping activities

When you camp outside an unopened shopping mall in thesnow with GPS + Camera... and get arrested firefishy (grant slater)

There is help...
