Just thought I would start a thread which didn't have deep philosophical overtones so that we all can have fun with the new forum software. Based upon personal experience, I will start a list of “You know you are a swimmer when …” with the following:
You know you are a swimmer when you leave work in the rain and you can smell the chlorine coming off of your hair.
Anyone care to add to the list?

You want to start competing, but are going to wait until after your next birthday (in a couple months), so you don't have to compete against the just-out-of-college swimmers.
The smell of chlorine perks you up
You start thinking that $200 for a suit that only gets worn for competition sounds "reasonable"
You own 8 swimsuits, but only have one old ratty one that you'd ever wear to a "pool party"
