Symptoms, early warning signs, and fever??

[MTHall51]

True confession time here.
I have long had a great interest in firearms, and knives. I got on CPF originally to just ask one question. Well, many questions later, and much reading having been done, I now feel some compulsion to keep coming back and reading more... The major symptom I am experiencing, is no longer wanting to find out which is my one ultimate choice flashlight. Now when I read various posts recommending for someone to buy both or even all 3 lights when someone asks which is best, I am thinking...... sounds good to me.

So, the question for all you experienced people here, is it possible I am getting the early stages of flashlight fever?? Is there such a thing?

The only way to be sure is to buy several flashlights (preferably titanium) and see how you feel afterwards.

Hall...If you can afford guns- flashlights are so much cheaper! Bet you can't stop at a Dozen!

Besides, unless you live in the country- who can shoot every day! I use a few of my flashlights daily.

I'm afraid you are past the early warning signs..

The fever has already taken hold.

Hide your wallet and sell your computer before it's too late!!

Yes, there is such a thing...it is a nasty virus and there is no cure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like you have the bug. Question is, have you bought any lights yet? And if so, are you already planning on buying more? If that's the case, you're a goner. :welcome:

If you are on this website . . . .


And not only READING, but now you've even started a THREAD . . . .


I'm afraid it is already too late.



Here's your one final chance --

Buy yer'self ONE more flashlight,

and then don't ever again read CandlePowerForums.


Simply find comfort in the fact that you have a superior flashlight
to 99.9 % of everyone on Earth.


Go forth, and use (and enjoy) your light.

And NEVER worry about getting anything brighter.

:devil:

I think that confirms it. My budget has required me to slow down on guns, and just stick with my favorite, but now with flashlights.... I have bought Inova, two streamlights, two surefires, have one more SL on the way, but keep having the feeling that there is something I still really need.

I have a feeling it is too late. I am glad to be in the company of many great people who know how it feels. Used to think I had steel addiction, but light addiction sounds like a plan too.

I wonder how many of us were like me, fixing broken flashlights by the time we were six, doing electrical wiring at home a few years later to rearrange the lights....

Think how lucky we were that quantum mechanics came along and we got LEDs and the promise of more, instead of living our lives in the incandescent century.

Oops!

You've got a fever all right, and the only prescription is...








Say it with me...

Hey modern science is finding cures for all kinds of things every day. Don't give up hope! I heard some team in Switzerland just isolated the "flashlight" gene and they're looking at using nanites to remove the gene from every cell in your body. Don't worry, there's no plans to have mandatory treatment for the illness yet.

Kind of glad you said that. Before I read your last sentence, it sent chills up my spine to think .."I don't want to be cured". Does it get any scarier than that?:huh:
