SDMB's are addicting b/c...

It’s almost 2:30 in the afternoon and i have been on this website for almost 2hrs. What i have been doing i don’t rightly know but i have yet to be bored. How addicting has it been for you? I have been a member for like 2 days and already have 30 things posted. Maybe i should find a new habit but at least this one isn’t a bad thing to be addicted to.

It’s taken up the greater part of my past 18 months.

And yes, I meant to post “It has” instead of “It’s.” Another thing the board has done is make me extremely paranoid about errors in writing posts.

Oh yes, 2 hours? Come back when you’ve spent 24 hours at this site and are bleary-eyed and just cannot leave. :smiley:

It has made me very paranoid about my grammer, which still isn’t that great. Two hours is nothing, I once spent a full 28 hours on this board reading the archives, reading threads and posting. I know, I have no life.

yes 2 hours… and now i’m back and yesterday i was on here twice for about 2 hours each time and tonight i will be on here again.

::cough::

It’s addictive because you keep hoping you’ll wind up like iampunha, finding a hot babe on here, making her fall in love with you, and then proposing to her.

:wink:

Hey, it could happen!

It’s happened several times, and not just to me:D

And I didn’t even have to resort to chocolate…

You’ve abandoned life as you once knew it. Just give up. Now.

Of course you’ve also found something much better to do with your time than, say, cleaning house or even remembering whether you put gas in the car.

We got another one, guys! ::fist-pumps the air in victory::

When you find yourself trying to tell friends or family about something really funny/interesting somebody named iampunha or Francesca or elucidator or Polycarp said, then reality will REALLY hit.

“Who?” (looong pause) “Oh. One of your internet friends.”

It’s even more fun when explain that they’re Dopers.

Veb

Oh, Hell, Veb, try explaining “So I was saying to my friend Canthearya…what? Her name is Canthearya … so anyway, I was saying to her … WHAT is that look for? We were talking about something, and … good grief! It’s not that funny!”

:smiley:

Try mentioning that you are going to a Dopefest.

I swear, I’m surprised we haven’t been raided yet.

*Two hours? *

I’ve been here nearly every day for over three years. That’s how addicting this place can get. :smiley:

Say goodbye to the rest of your life, my friend. The SDMB is like net-crack.

:smiley:

I thought Cyber Crack was the term officially handed down by the Illu…

Oh, hell. I’ve said too much.

[sub]It only gets worse with time, mate. Veb is not kidding about that. Gradually, you will find it nigh impossible to not reference something you read here, on every damn subject that anyone discusses with you.[/sub]

Sometimes, you gotta go cold turkey.

I went without for an entire year, with only a few ill effects.
