You know you're a Decepticon if...

You have plenty of ways to eliminate the use of oil, but you wouldn't dream of it because it makes the best-tasting Energon.

You are made, not born.

You only have one parent.

This parent is your Coder, not your "father" or "mother."

You think having to wait until 4 to join the Military is a ridiculous limitation.

Those who don't join by 5 are cowards who will only be conscripted anyway.

Going on a raid is your idea of a good time.

Raiding a place advanced enough to have SAM batteries is your idea of an extreme sport.

You think all bodies should be built to last forever, assuming they aren't shut down via violence.

You keep spare bodies, because the one you're in eventually *will* get shut down by violence.

You will never get killed or murdered. You may, however, end up deactivated, terminated, shut down, turned into slag, or suffer a fatal error.

You never get physically sick or mentally ill. Instead, you suffer damages or get glitches in your code.

You think that the idea of fixing any mental error with years of psychotherapy or psychotropic drugs is ridiculous. Debugging can fix any such errors in a day, tops, and usually it only takes a few minutes.

You aren't at all creeped out by the fact that your body is made out of other bodies that've been melted down.

When you see a planet with only biologicals on it, your first thought is how you're going to raid the place.

You can't really imagine why human brains don't explode in a shower of sparks from all of that wetness.

When you go to a spa, you enjoy a nice hot-wax job.

Wax makes you shine. It doesn't take hair away. Whatever 'hair' is.

You think it's stupid to wear medals. Your flashy filigree paint embellishment, on the other hand, is a high honor.

You wouldn't dream of accepting credit cards, notes, or other such instruments. They'd only be forgeries anyway.

You can forge almost anything.

You always taste a shot of any money anyone is trying to pay you, to make sure it's not really just phosphorescent water.

You can't understand why other nations charge income tax. It's only going to be evaded anyway, so why bother?!

On the other hand, you think it's normal to have the Raid Tax bot grab 10% off of any loot you take to an official dropoff point.

Dropping off loot like crude oil or iron ore (that you raided from somewhere) in exchange for fully-refined Energon Cubes is the usual end of your business day.

You would rather rust away than take a regular job. Jobs are for slaves and losers. REAL Decepticons raid or connive for their money!

You may realize that the above mindset leads to a steady supply of rusted-out losers who couldn't raid a lollipop from a human baby and are therefore destitute. This may lead you to decide that a good way to make money is to drag them to the foundries as scrap - whether they're still alive or not.

If you do the above, you won't have to fear arrest. Instead, weaker robots will fear YOU!

You are not horrified that some robots do that kind of thing. It's just part of life. Those who aren't Deceptive or Conniving are a waste of metal anyway, and reclaiming it for REAL Decepticons is a good thing.

You think the Autobots were the EVIL side and that their desire for laws was actually just a means to suck the vibrancy out of life. Of course, the fact that they wanted to destroy all Decepticons doesn't improve your opinion of them!

Humans and other biological lifeforms are beta creatures. You would pity them, but they're arrogant and think that they're above robots. Therefore, you laugh when they're sent into the mines.

You wouldn't dream of downloading pirated software. It may cause you to get hacked. That's literal. It may hack YOU. Not "your computer" or "your system."

A nonliving computer is freakish to you, like a zombie is to a human. If you saw one, you'd likely destroy it as an abomination.

You really don't know what a 'civilian' is in the true sense of the word. There are only active-duty troops, and off-duty troops.

These are just a few of the things that are part of being a Decepticon.

You know that you are a Valikan if....

1. You're married, but you have 3 or 4 mistresses and your wife doesn't bat an eye about it.
2. Your wife has 3 or 4 lovers of her own.
3. All your extramarital affairs have an emotional component to them.
4. You have sex with a hooker, and your wife is mad at you, not because you had sex with another woman, but because you had casual sex with a prostitute.
5. You lost your oral virginity at 13, but your regular one at 16 (this is quite common among Valikans who don't wish to have kids that young).
6. The first was lost to your cousin, the second to your aunt (yes, cougars are popular in Valik....many young men take them as mistresses, because they are financially stable and can better afford to raise a bastard).
7. You're expected to commit incest with distant relations, but siblings, parents, and children are taboo.
8. Your favorite drink is ouzo, and you started drinking at age 10, at dinner, with your parents present (it was regular wine).
9. You speak several languages just to do business.
10. You've sneaked around to the Macurean Quarter of your town to experience casual sex for the first time. That is also a dark secret that you will take with you to your grave, due to the shame.
11. Your family, including distant relatives, all live very close and often take baths together.
12. You vote annually, no more, no less, because all offices (other than Patriarch) are annual.
13. One of your friends has a male lover, and you think nothing of it.
14. Both sexes are comfortable being naked in front of each other in your community, and you think that is how it should be everywhere.
15. Your local gym has a co-ed steam room, shower, spa, and pool.
16. All sports and exercise are performed in the nude.
17. Your favorite singer is a member of Celtic Woman.
18. You hate rap with a passion.
19. You watch the Olympics religiously.
20. There are robed, heavily armed men who walk around in broad daylight, and you have to make way for these Brethren.
21. You know a few Christians, but you and most of your family are Patrian. The ones who aren't do not get disowned, but are treated as regular members of the family.
22. An Amish community just started up, and instead of gawking at their clothes or harassing them, you make a point of helping a buggy driver get his cart out of the mud. Your friends help out to, because that's just what you're supposed to do.

You know you're Sarzonian when:

You see people wearing naval uniforms even if they're not in the Navy.

Your heart beats faster every time you see a sailing ship. Hearing a carronade fire gets you excited.

Even seeing the Stars lose a friendly match with their eighth choice side against the world's second ranked team gets you worked up.

Saying "Inkana" gets you dirty looks from veterans.

Saying "Pantera" draws a smile from a grizzled veteran.

You wonder if you should salute the Delaclav flag as well as the Sarzonian flag.

You salute the Delaclav flag and no Sarzonians give you strange looks.

You're required to take Latin to communicate both with your closest ally and understand your most bitter enemy.

You know you're a Gwarman when...
...You have no idea what a firefighter is, and if you id, you'd spit on them.
...The natural shade of your skin has long been forgotten, seeing as at least 60% of your body is now covered in tattoos.
...When you have at least 3 dads/moms, and a dozen siblings.
...You can fit most coinage in your ear lobes.
...You have more piercings than digits.
...The best and most (in)famous military men and politicians have extensive criminal records.
...You get fined for murder.
...and rape.
...The concept of marriage makes you laugh uncontrollable, then stare in disbelief when you find out people actual practice it.
...Like wise with christian religions.
...Oh, and strictly heterosexual people.
...You move out at 17.
...Have about 4 kids and twice as many significant others by the age of 18.
...You live with half a dozen of your closest friends.
...You think anyone living in on place for more than a month is the strangest thing you've ever heard.
...You smoke like a chimney, with no ill effects at all.
...Being 6ft is seen as very tall.
...Your funerals are buffets.
...And the eulogy is calling dibs on various anatomy parts to make into trinkets.
...Your 'punishment' for being a serial killer is an ecstatic military commissioned parole offered to you.
...And being a convicted rapist is good on your resume.
...'Domestic Abuse' means 'Tough Love'.
...You treat soldiers like you would a garbage man.
...Music without screaming or growling is seen as weird.
