You know you're hooked on Dope when ...

You get up in the middle of the night to take a pee, and you check for new posts in GQ before you go back to bed.

[li]Whenever something (goor or bad) happens during your day, your first thought is “Hey, I oughtta post something about this on SDMB!”[/li][li]You’ve had dreams in which are you posting to the SDMB.[/li][li]You turn to the SDMB to ask questions or get advice before asking anyone you know in person.[/li][li]You can’t hold a conversation with anyone without mentioning something you read on the SDMB.[/li][li]You can recite at least 100 Doper names from memory.[/li][/ul]

At the grocery store you are thinking about how to reply to that jerk you met in the Pit.

You name your next five children Cecil, even the daughters!!!

When filling out a scan-tron test I have realized I was looking for an underscore in the name bubbles.

You start a thread to find the answer to a question when a quick Google search would suffice.

You see someone you know and yell out “Hi Opal”. :stuck_out_tongue:

It’s 5am, and you’re still posting.

You question peoples intelligence, if after hearing countless second hand stories about how cool/funny the SDMB is from you, they still aren’t convinced enough to sign on and look.

What she said! Help me! Someone help me!!!

You put VB coding into your regular emails.

You see random people on the street and wonder what their post count is.

You refer to a law enforcement officer as a “mod”.

Check, check, check, check, check. :smack:

When you lose sleep wishing you could edit an embarrassing typo out of one of your posts.

Whenever something really pisses you off you cool down by writing a pit rant in your head.

When you realize you just refered to yourself as a doper in front of all your bosses.

People start to roll their eyes when you say “well we were just discussing this on the board”.

Man, I must have a bazillion of those out there.

What makes it even worse is when someone “quotes” you and you get to see it all over again. :frowning:

When the first thing you do in the morning is turn on the PC and check out the boards.

and it is also the last thing you do IF you actually go to bed.

and whenever you’re home during the day ya just gotta check-in for what you think will only be a minute.

Damn I gotta get up in a couple of hours…g~nite :eek:
and you see the same folks in the wee hours…just the few of us, hey arky29 :wink:

It’s just all these subscribed thread replies in my Inbox! :smiley:

You’re going to hold that over my head forever, arent’cha?

You have anxiety attacks when the board goes down at 5AM every day.

… If you think any thread, even this one, must have something worth reading in it!

I haveheard this mentioned by other posters, but it becomes true. You want to (and sometimes do) yell out “Cite?”

I did it! Just now, I sat down, and typed out 105 names in Excel, without cheating! I feel so, so… hopelessley addicted :eek:

Apologies for any spelling errors there…
Ack! I’m going ot be late for class if I don’t get a move on!
