Hi. I'm Zsuzsa and I'm addicted to crime shows. I love everything about them. The action, the mystery, murder most foul. I've always loved them. My addiction started as a child -- with Scooby-Doo. Ever since then I've watched every mystery movie and read every mystery novel I could get my hands on, from classic mysteries like Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window to modern crime shows like Criminal Minds. However, when you watch too many crime drams, there are certain things that you start doing.

1. You think you can actually solve crimes in real life.

"Yes, Detective, it was Colonel Mustard in the Library with the Trophy."

"Would someone get her out of here?"

2. You tense up every time you see one of these:

I mean seriously. Why do people even drive these anymore?

3. You're super aware when you are walking alone in the dark.

As a woman, I am already hyper aware when I have to walk alone at night. Watching crime shows has multiplied that awareness by 100. Not to mention you walk home with your keys between your fingers just in case you have to punch someone.

4. You double-triple-quadruple check the locks on all windows and doors.

You have a system -- door, door, window. Door, door, window.

5. When you hear a strange noise, your first reaction is to locate the closest thing you could use as a weapon.

You grab the biggest hardback book you can find, ready to bash someone over the head with (when in reality, you would probably just freeze up if someone broke in).

6. You feel like the smartest person in the world when you solve the case before the detectives do.

You proceed to yell at the detectives because it's just "SO OBVIOUS!"

7. Whenever you see someone hanging out by their car in a parking lot, you run to the safety of your car and lock the doors.

Sure, they were probably just eating Taco Bell beside their car; but what if that was just what they wanted you to think?

8. Before you get into your car, you always check the backseat and the underside of the car for serial killers.

Because you have seen too many episodes where the lady got into her car without looking and it resulted in this situation.

9. You're still holding out for your one true love, Dr. Spencer Reid.

*sighs*

10. You're pretty sure you could be an criminal profiler if you really wanted to be.

Well, sort of anyways.

Although you would probably not be able to stomach the sight of a body in real life, you can still pretend to be a smart detective. And no matter where you go or what you end up doing, you will still have that tiny part of you that thinks you could solve crime.
