You know you’ve turned Swiss if…

So we asked our Facebook community to complete a simple sentence: "You know you've turned Swiss if..."

I had taken a stab at this topic before when we published 33 signs that you're becoming Swiss. But little did I know that the community would come up with dozens of additional humorous signals that Swissness is taking a hold.

Here are the best endings to our sentence, sorted by number of likes!
