This Forum is Like a Drug

[wktf]

Randy Bowen said it himself in his geekspeak interview: "This forum is like crack," or something like that.

Ghah! I have to get off this damn thing and work. Does my employer pay me to keep piping in here?

Danny, do you offer a twelve-step program? Shouldn't there be adds on here like the alcohol companies produce about the dangers of drinking and driving?

[Zurbaran1]

Nope but I'm here to give you what you need. :)

[Teague]

It is, it really is. I should be working on my next novel right now, but I'm not, I'm here. And for some reason, it's important to me that my post total go up. Help me.

God grant me the serenity to accept the statue design that I cannot change, the courage to suggest tweaks when I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

Looks like your doing it again. :laugh:

[Eye of Agamotto]

So true, I could be doing so many other things......

[cblakey1]

I'm on for 8 hours at work, then an hour or so when I get home from work, take a few hour dinner/TV break, then get right back on 'til midnite every day. Holidays too! And even sometimes there's nothing interesting to read/look at. I just sit there clicking on new posts waiting for something new to read/chime in on.

Somebody please help me! :banghead:

[Eye of Agamotto]

However let it be said, we could be doing much worse things.....

I don't know what you guys are talking about. I can leave this forum for
moments at a time,with NO problem.

Enjoy the weekend and tell your friends! Oh, let's be honest - if some of you had friends, you wouldn't spend so much time here. I kid, I kid! :)
My special message to the Forum - "I wish I knew how to quit you!" (sob) :)

By your post count and date you joined, I see that to be true. But after another month or two and further submersion into the hobby and you'll be just as addicted!

[cblakey1]

:laugh: Say that directly to Confessor or Bomen and see what they do! :laugh:

[Virsago]

It is like crack, you know you're addicted when any thought you have you try to figure out how to make a thread or a post. :p

[Korann]

I'm on here all the time at work...I don't feel bad since my co-worker is playing computer games most of the day and only doing about 2 hours of actual work. I at least do 6 or 7. The only problem is that shes the bosses daughter...so it'd be my a@! getting fired and not hers....but I guess that's what I get for not being part of the fam in a family owned business!

[Zurbaran1]

Who are you kidding? That was you mistakenly waiting for Kit Fisto to go up. 15 minutes to go. :)

[Wolverine1]

Who is really addicted?

[Tattoo-S]

Hmmm, this is kind of sad and exciting all at the same time. Good thing the mods are here, that way at least someone is doing something productive. B/c nobody else is.

Yeah, I would have to say it is addicting, when you discuss the forum members and or theads several times a day. When you return home from work, with a list of things to do, and the top of the list is... check forum...:rolleyes: When you can only tear yourself away from the PC long enough to grap something to drink and use the facilities....all the while praying outloud that you don't miss something.

Yelling into the other room (to your spouse/partner) OMG your not gonna believe this.....come look at this picture.....I have to show you something. The best one is this. Laughing outloud (really loud) to gain the attention of others in the house to hear/see a response to a post that you are ultimately proud of.......(often not recieved well by the viewer/listener).

Addicted........Definately! LOL :laugh:

[Tattoo-S]

Who is really addicted?
Oh, yeah, and anyone with over 5,000 points is surely not here monitoring or sharing any kind of superb wisdom....... :eplus2: :confused2

[Colossus]

Yeah I check many times a day, I am a crack head here and sad thing is I have never even met any of you people!!!

[Zurbaran1]

...sad thing is I have never even met any of you people!!!

You probably want to keep it that way. :)

Well at least with Zurb....... :confused2 :rolleyes2

[JadeGiant]

I am currently experiencing withdrawal - my home PC puked a few days ago and can only access through work ... :banghead: I am the fastest in the universe at minimizing the screen - I accept all challenges!

It would be interested to keep track of most threads accessed or time actively logged in - that would tell the true addicts. Posts are often just a "ditto" or
:buttrock: etc.

[JadeGiant]

hello, my name is JadeGiant and I am a statueholic :banghead:

you would just be trading one drug for another - you are still a junkie

BTW- I am in the same category ... collecting addiction

I do this, too. I don't think that disproves your being sick, though. :laugh:
