I love Snood but it is too addictive. I play it right before I go to bed at night and when I wake up. Everyone’s tired of seeing me on the computer all the time . And, NO, I won’t delete it!!!

Snood ate my life when I was in school. Snood bad. I believe it was invented by the evil mind control people. Beware Snood!

Is [this](http://www.snood.org/) what you are talking about? There are more [snoods](http://www.balletbows.com/) here.

Snood can be a [knotty](http://www.geocities.com/Yosemite/Trails/5167/knotsandties.html) problem.

**nightshadea** , go to **Spider Woman** ’s first link and all will become clear. And then you will curse us for exposing you to the vile pestilence that is Snood.

I don’t install it anymore. I’d never get anything done.

Plus it installs Gator when you install Snood. I hate that.

Every now and then I feel the urge… Bad Snood, Bad.

I downloaded Snood against my better judgement a few weeks ago. I get addicted to games easily, so I knew it would mean trouble, but what the hey, winter’s coming. You can get Snood without Gator, I did. I can’t remember where I got it though. So…which is your favorite Snood? Mine is the purple triangle “Spike”. Reminds me of my beloved Vikings. My least favorite is the silver “Mildred”. Oh how I loath Mildred.

Did you know that Snood is also a term for a particular, uhm, sexual act? I’m sorry I can’t tell you what it means - It’s too embarassing. :eek:

I love Snood. Helps me put off my bio homework. Also, have you been to [http://www.popcap.com](http://www.popcap.com)? Lots of addicting games…I happen to be partial to Bejeweled. Enjoy!

My mother is completely addicted. Several weeks ago (when I last used the home computer), there were over 10,000 games played, 8,000 of which were probably my mother’s. I refuse to install it on my school computer - SDMB is distraction enough!

My entire floor was addicted to snood last year… Eventually people turned the volume down cause they were embarassed that other people knew how much they played…but still every 10 seconds you’d hear somebody yell “GOD DAMNIT I SHOT THAT PERFECTLY!”

Snood is indeed the devil.

It looks a lot like the playstation game ‘Bust a Move’. I play that game a lot.

(I hope this doesn’t double post. I went back to main screen, refreshed the thread, and didn’t see this there. )  
Look, this is just mean. I finally broke my major sims addiction. I still play at times, but I don’t play constantly anyore. Then someone had to go and mention it here. And _someone else_[sup][sub]\*[/sup][/sub] had to post the link. Thank goodness the first link had the option to get it without the Gator thing. Now, I have a new addiction. Do you know, I skipped church last night in favor of playing Snood. Of course, I will go tonight. Unless I’m in the middle of a game.

[sup][sub]\* Not that I want to name names, but these were **Anubis** and **Spider Woman** , respectively. meanies. [/sup][/sub]

While there is an option to not install Gator, the option without does install Bonzi Buddy without warning.
