Subject: Am I an InThe00s.com Addict?

Written By: midnite on 08/19/08 at 7:35 pm

My profile says I have been logged in for a total of 2 days, 18 hours and 35 minutes.   

I catch myself asking people on the street, trivia questions about the 80's and 90's.

My name is Q and I too am addicted to inthe00s.com.

I cannot sit at a computer without checking in to see replies to my post, pms and new topics started.

Most of my discussions with my real life eventually wind up to a discussion about my online friends.....

(My friend Cat said this - or bookmistress watches this too...) 
I also said if I ever got on the TV themed Who Wants to Be a Millionaire I'm totally getting Whistledog as a phone a friend.

The other day I said "Sweet Niblbets!" Out loud... and in public


and... I say w00t.... way too often.

;D

my logged time says:  123 days, 6 hours and 21 minutes. :o

I think it is safe to say that I am somewhat addicted too. ;) :D

I used to be a super inthe00s addict.  When I was a n00b, I had reached an average of 156 posts per day way within less than a year.  I was a postmaniac because I wanted to reach 10,000 posts so bad, and once I did, I sort of lost the will to post like crazy again, so I started deleting posts I'd made so I could lower my posts per day yet still keep a good post count. 

It eventually worked becuase I am now at an average of 32 posts per day, which makes it look like I relaxingly posted my way to 30,000+ posts within an almost 3 year span ;D

I guess I can say I'm an addict.....I'm here almost everyday, unless I'm not feeling well. I'm hoping to reach 10,000 posts by the end of this year.  :)

And I usually give you a silent nod when I do it  ;)

some of us probably need to start working a program for our addiction.

Step 1. We admitted we were powerless over Inthe00s.com and that we can't go a day without it, no matter what.

I am TOTALLY addicted. If I am home I am here. I always have at least one window open to this board. I am often doing research in-line, or maybe playing on Pogo but I ALWAYS check back from time to time to see if I missed anything.

Yep, I'm an addict.  I tried to quit for about a week.  It was horrible, the cold sweat, the morbid fear that you may miss someones birthday.  The fear that Snoz may someday consume so much Mountain Dew she'll explode.  The hope that G.W.Bush will someday say that the democrats have a good ideal or two.  I've only mention three things because it's too much for a person to bear.

No, I've learned to embrace my addictions.  It keeps me off the street and up to no good. :D

I would have thought I was an addict for this place, but my profile still says I only make 7.275 posts per day

So I guess I'm not too bad.  ;D

Step 1. We admitted we were powerless over Inthe00s.com and that we can't go a day without it, no matter what.


Step 2.  We realized that only addicts go to rehab.  As long as we keep going to inthe00s instead of rehab, we're not addicts.

How about a support group...

We could go to meetings and instead of sitting in a circle talking about our addictions we could sit in the same room and type to each other on our laptops.
