You find yourself in some situation or other and ask yourself, "What would Starbuck do?"

Addition to the list:

You cannot write a fic WITHOUT Kara Thrace taking a role.

SSWA! All fic is better with Kara. (And of course, she thinks so because she does always shove her nose into them.)

I have done 75% of these, although I was going to take up kickboxing or boxing instead!

Things to work on: I have to come up with a better callsign explanation, I'll have to start hating Kat, and I need one of Kara's tags to go with my Lee tags that I wear every day. (I am dismissing the hair ones bc my hais is very long and almost black...so no.)

I find more than anything, that I kind of invoke Kara's bravery when I am feeling particularly not-brave about something. I think I'll buy Kara tags when I go to D*C and then I can have one Lee and one Kara. Some other fangirls have those. It was awesome to get Lee's - the dude only had two sets.

I do that too. Like, all the time.

I'm not a tattoo person at all, but Gods I want Starbuck's marriage tattoo so bad.

Have neither a dog named Starbuck nor take shooting lessons but I love Katee Sackhoff in this role and I could not love more Starbuck.
Can I be considered as a true fan?:)))

I can identify all the rare promo shots of Katee as Kara and know which were really filmed and which weren't.

I love ponytails.

I can identify Kara's lines in other venues. I recently read a book where the heroine said, "All right. Here we go." Just like in Captain's Hand!

I wish I had dogtags! Real ones. And Zak's ring on them too. Ooh.

You Know You're a Kara Fan When...
- When you lived in California your personalized license plate was 8757NC1 (8757NC was already taken by another fan ;-) )

- When you fought breast cancer, your motto was "Fight'em until we can't" and I'd visualize the cancer cells as cylons and me as Kara, blasting each one to hell during chemo.

- When you get in an accident, have to have emergency surgery, and lose your job and home all within the span of three months, use Kara as your example of how to carry on despite the overwhelming odds and tons of crap that keeps on happening to you.


- Lurk like a mad on LJ & FF.net for Kara & Lee fic because somedays, escaping into my favorite Starbuck & Apollo (or Katie RPF ;-D ) fic is exactly what I need to forget RL and relax!

I have, in fact, taken a picture of Katee as Starbuck to my hairstylist. ("Unfinished Business," the pic as she's going into the boxing ring.) Bonus points for me!!!

I think the most weirdly fannish thing I did was writing that ode to Kara's ponytail using the meter to "Home on the Range." It beats all the fic, I think.
