Found this interesting list online. I'm guilty of the symptoms in blue.

* You’re forever daydreaming and imagining about Arashi and you.

* Only true idols get extremely popular after putting stockings over their head and wearing nipples exposing shirts.

* You’re envious of the Arashi Fan Club members.

* You’re envious of anyone that lives in Japan.

* Despite how poor you are, somehow you manage to buy all albums/singles.

* The first kanji you memorized is 嵐 .

* …and then the kanji of all the members’ names.

* You are very familiar with male dominated words such as “omae” and “umai”

* Eating expired food is not crazy at all, but funny.

* When someone mentions ‘Bambi’, it’s Jun that you think of, not the Disney movie.

* You cried when watching Aiba read his letter on 24hrTV.

* You buys CDs but listen to downloaded versions, because you don’t want to open your album copy.
