When you leave your tea bags on the train on purpose, so you can lament: "My Shangri-La has gone away..."

When your dad is telling you about this band called ELP & you think “darn, only one letter away from perfection.” you could say that about ALO, too ELP was a prog rock band at the same time that ELO was considered prog. Here's their best one (IMHO) and here's my favorite from ALO

When your local road signs mysteriously feature the extra caption "Or Bust". Also, whenever you see the a shot of the Wembley arch on TV or in film you immediately think of Jeff rather than football.
Extra points if ELO is still your first thought when you see the old Wembley with the twin towers.
Even more points if you watched Bohemian Rhapsody and thought "I'd love to see the Wembley scene in the movie of Jeff's life...already I am emotional for the 'Can't Get It Out of My Head' performance".
And even more points if you watched Bohemian Rhapsody and you thought Queen's manager on the movie looks pretty much the same as Jeff Lynne:

... when you don't just borrow any old library book, oh no. (Incidentally, joined a new library this week. Exploring the stacks, the first book that caught my eye was a smartly bound hardback written by one W. Gibson. Sadly, it wasn't about violin music or cacti.)

When someone points out Jeff is wearing sunglasses and this surprises you because you've been gazing at him lovingly for so long that you stopped noticing them.

When you keep a surreal submarine beside the bath. For the kids to play with, of course. Oh, yes.

When you see a cute cartoon animal and immediately think "Ohhh, that's exactly what a certain string player would look like, if he ever took to a life of crime...."

When you're sat reading and your mother says "It's raining outside" and you reply with - "rainin' rainin'" without even thinking about it or knowing you've even said it.
