> The most disturbing symptom is SDMB Syndrome is when you dream about the message board itself. I actually had a dream the other day while I was napping, and it was just basically me reading a lot of posts and typing responses. I don’t even remember any of the topics or who the other posters were, but when I woke up, I was a bit disoriented to find myself not at the computer…

I had this dream just last night! Actually, I first dreamed I met Hitler (he was the old friend of a friend’s father) with his new wife and two kids. And he was bitching about how complicated it was to make travel arrangements because none of the travel angents knew how to deal with the special UN sanctions he was under. And I’m just nodding but secretly I’m thinking “well, maybe you should try not slaughtering millions of innocent poeple and see how that works out.”

But, then (in my dream still), I get online and post to the Pit about how I’m such a wimp I can’t even be rude to Hitler and if there’s anyone who deserves rudeness, it’s certainly Hitler… :dubious:

And then I woke up to my friend pounding on the door to force me to go to breakfast and realized that if I’m dreaming about SDMB, maybe I should get offline more…
