When your parents think you're just a big show off even though you train alone

your non parkour friends are annoyed because you talk about parkour so much

You'd rather walk/run/parkour across town than drive

-when you sit in class and instead of listening to the professor, you imagine yourself doing parkour around the classroom
-you hit doorknobs, cabinets, desks, beds, or pretty much anything in your house with you heel when kicking up for a handstand
-you sit a work and imagine a mini-you parkouring around your desk ,vaulting over staplers and tape dispencers
-you tell yourself you are going to bed at 11, but you stay up for another 3 hours watching parkour vids on youtube
-you get sad after watching a new 3run video, cause now you have 145.6756 more things to work on
-You think of surroundings in terms of precisions
-You ride in a car and imagine yourself outside running with the same speed jumping and vaulting whatever is on the side of the road
-You get superexcited when a girl expresses interest in learning parkour
-You randomly get up on elevated things and sit in a crouched spiderman position
-You use 1/4 of the steps, if any, on any given staircase
-You jump down stairs
-You do lazy vaults, when you are in fact, too lazy to kong or dash
-You wear sport clothing everyday just cause you may have to do parkour at some point and time
-You plan you route to class so that you have to vault something a long the way
-PDQ replaces Rock Paper Scissors

Amazingly hilarious and sadly, true.
I can relate with just about all of those except instead of work, it's at school that I envision the mini-me. Oh, and I've never tried PDQ, but tag definitely overrides rock paper scissors.

... you proudly bear the scars in the middle of your shins. (you know which I mean, the one where you precision onto something and it slips out from under you, so you land straight on the rail, edge, etc, shin first.)

Those were pretty much said before in one way or another. I take you didn't read the whole 15 pages of this post...Smiley
In any case here are a few more

-people come to you with problems and your answer is "do more parkour", always
-you've added parkour/freerunning terms to the spell checker dictionary
-in attempt to concentrate on homework, instead you come up with things to put on this post
-you apply parkour philosophy to EVERYTHING, including eating and relationships
-You stop putting stuff in pockets because it might fall out should you decide to vault something
-Your interest in playgrounds is just as great now as it was when you were 6
-Ever think about punching some random guy so that he would chase you, and you can use parkour to get away
-You wish your car could do parkour....
-..at which point you wonder how hard it would be to install  that hydraulic jumpy thing from that car on "Speed Racer"

I may be the only one who has done this but...

You know you're a traceur when you think about PK so much in class you ask to go to the bathroom and instead of going to the bathroom you walk down the hall a little bit to a clear space. Do a handstand for 10-30 seconds, then land it quietly and go back in the classroom, slightly refreshed.
