You might be a Lyran if...
While being forced from a planet in your Excalibur dropship you say to your aide de camp "Fool this brandy is foul, BRING ME THE GOOD VINTAGE!!!".

Edit: used overlord as a place holder, had to research to find a sufficiently expensive dropship

You might be Lyran if you have your current opponent on the battlefield ship your LRMs to your unit before the final campaign to crush them.

By far the best was "You might be Lyran if your commander got his position because he attended a party". :-)

...if your "Eject" is really just a shower of C-Bills targeted on your non-atlas foes.
...if you "eject" into another Atlas
...if your Atlas is used to pilot an even larger Atlas.

Those last two were eerily similar. More originality!

You might be Lyran if ...

you delay the campaign in order to touch up the paintjobs on your lance "Because it's simply bad form to go into battle improperly marked".

[David Decoster]

If your idea of 'covert operations' is a frontal attack by a company of Atlas'es, and then bribing the local newspapers to shut up about it.

If you're first word after birth was 'Atlas', but only because 'C-Bill' came out as 'seebee' and didn't make sense at the time.

If rollin' around in your gold-plated Atlas is your way of feeling 'gangsta'.

If you're facing another mech under 90 tons, you immediately think 'OMG, sooo cute' and go 'coochie-coochie-coo' over open comms.

If your parents don't own a summer house, they own a summer planet (or summer continent for all you lower class Lyrans).

If your family motto says "If it talks, bribe it, if it doesn't, buy it.".

You may be a Lyran if you play poker, and the ante each hand is an Atlas

You may be a Lyran if you have a sticker on the back of your Atlas saying "My other Mech is also an Atlas"

Summer planet...

Not sure if seeing what you did there was intentional on your part.

You might be a Steiner if you aren't reading this thread 'cos you can't take your eyes of the Atlas vid.

You might be a Lyran if you use PPC's as spotting lasers.

[Greyrook]

You might be a Lyran if the biggest decision you make from day to day is choosing which money pile to bathe in.

You might be a Lyran if your general has never lost a battle...because he's never been in one before.

You might be a Lyran if you have an Atlas to match each dress uniform in your wardrobe.
