- You know you're a Burn Notice fan when….
- In every other TV show/movie you're watching you point out something that would have been better handled by Michael and/or Fiona
- Every time you watch a spy/action movie, you try to decide if Michael Westen could kick the other character's butt. And the answer is usually yes.

- You watch another show set in Miami and keep wondering when Michael's going to show up and start blowing stuff up
- You're watching CSI: Miami and catch yourself wondering how Horatio Caine would handle Michael Westen and Fiona. Then you place a silent bet that Fiona would kick his butt. :)

- Yogurt is the only item in your house that you immediately run out to buy if you run out.

- You watch Battlestar Galactica and start wondering which Cylon will next show up on Burn Notice (Thanks to
nebakanezer for pointing out this should be number six on the list)
- You check the exits everywhere you go
- You have searched your house for every possible place that you could put a 'slick'.

- You go to your local bank, convenience store, or wherever there are security cameras and automatically start looking for the holes in their security plan.

- You find yourself being very careful what you discuss on your cellphone as you never know who could be listening in.

- You insist on pronouncing "Miami" in the faux Irish accent Gabrielle Anwar's Fiona sports in the pilot and opening credits… (thanks to
badluck97 for correcting the wording on this one)
- …and if someone mentions anything about a gun or shooting, you automatically reply with "shall we shoot them?" in the Fiona accent .

- You give educational monologues whether there's anyone to listen to them or not
- When you see a show's cast all walking out of a building ( a scene that's used in like a BILLION openings now), you wonder when the building will blow up behind them.

- Any mention of Armani conjures up mental images of Michael Westen
- You watch any Bruce Campbell movie and start wondering when Michael's going to show up
- Ditto for Gabrielle Anwar; and if you're watching a Jeffrey Donovan movie you're disappointed not to see Fiona or Sam
- In fact, you'll go out of your way to record/watch/buy any movie or tv episode featuring your favourite Burn Notice actor(s)
- You're watching Food Network and wondering when one of them is going to make a faux C4 bomb out of all that fondant.

- You look at your random items of shopping and start wondering what weaponry Michael and Fiona could cook up out of them
- You refer to your significant other as your 'tactical support'.
kuroilotus
- If someone mentions "Cagney and Lacey" you think about Madeline Westen, and/or the time Sam and Fiona used these names as their aliases
- When pouring drinks you wonder which alcoholic beverage makes the best firebomb to repel mob types with…
- …And, from personal experience, you give a presentation in a class on how Molotov cocktails are made/work.

- Handguns and snowglobes are the only gifts you consider buying for your significant other
- You've bought any Burn Notice DVDs, soundtracks, books available in your country or are on waitlist for these if they're not yet available; bonus points if you've imported said items from abroad to avoid the wait
- You read/write fanfic, watch/make fanvids, use/create wallpapers, icons, banners, etc
- You can name each episode, can summarise its storyline, name the guest stars, and even give a quote from it
- You buy clothes, shoes, and accessories according to the USA Network's "Spy Style" webpage
- You find yourself helping to compile or reading lists like this one :)
Thanks to everyone at the Burn Notice community for their ideas, any uncredited items are mine, the rest were suggested by the credited members of the community - and what fantastic suggestions they came up with :)
