You apply to term 'EV' to everything.

You clasify other drivers as LAG or TAG (I have a long drive to work...)

You watch the high stakes online games instead of porn.

not sure if this has been said or not yet...

At the office, I use that little 'stick it' notes as if they were cards... After I use one, I either splash the pot with them and spin them backwards out of my hand

You're driving and you think of different routes as being +eta or -eta.

Examples from my life...

When you are processing invoices and say "ship it" every time you click the ship all button.

When you classify girls walking by the poker table by starting hands. My roommate and I do this. "Wow look at the queens over there." "No way Ace jack off at best." Bolded usually said really quickly and loudly.

When you have less potato chips in your house than poker chips. (And I have 3 bags of potato chips).

If you have ever not played a $33,000,000 lotto because it isnt "+EV".

If you and your roommate pick who gets the master bedroom based on a last longer (I won great story too after 1 hour I had 800 left and he had 14000 the chip average was about $4300).

More to come when I think about it.

You enter a raffle at a carnival and as they announce the winning numbers, you yell, "ONE TIME!!!"

when you think something is too expensive, you tell the store they need to work on their bet-sizing. you then scold yourself for tapping the glass.
