Have you ever had a friend threaten a DU intervention?

[progmom]

Last night I was at a friend's house watching the Australian Open women's finals. During a commercial break, the following conversation took place:

me: are you logged on?
friend: to my computer?
me: uh...yes?
friend: why? oh...are you SERIOUS? you have to check DU?
me: but...but...JimmyJazz was having a tough time and people are arguing about Cheney's attire and Night Train is sick...and...and...
friend: seriously? i think we need some kind of intervention here.


So, anyone else think you're just a little to dependent on DU?

1. My Wife threatens that all the time.

But she loves reading the lounge threads over my shoulder.

2. Oh, I won't let my husband do that.

Which makes him think we're a bunch of depraved lunatics, I think.

Oh, wait......


:crazy:

[Zomby Woof]

20. She forgives you

For your ZombyWoof antique locomotive pic fixation. :P

[bahrbearian]

3. We are all your friends here at the DU

Intervention not needed.

4. It's kinda bad when I want to tell people who don't come to DU

neat stories about stuff I read here or about people here and they say "What is this again? This website you keep talking about?" and they roll their eyes and look at each other like "Bouncy's at it again, talking about that imaginary place and all her imaginary friends."

[progmom]

5. Oh Bouncy...

...I know exactly what you mean.

This imaginary friend loves you. :loveya:

[Bouncy Ball]

6. I wuv you too darling.

:loveya:

But do you know how weird it sounds to stomp off from a conversation yelling "WELL SOMEONE NAMED PROGMOM WHO LIVES SOMEWHERE IN THE US LOVES ME, SO THERE!"

Hee hee. And someone named Placebo loves me, and someone named Dookus tolerates me, and I have a little friend named KLEEB.

ROFL.

10. you can tell them that progmom lives in Ann Arbor

7. I think you might have seen my break down in the Lounge the other night.

And my sneaking around another icky website...

Some people were personally offended by what I did.

Other's thought it was funny.

I still don't know either way...:shrug:

[Bouncy Ball]

8. What did you do Longgrain?

Do you need a spanking?

[Longgrain]

14. It was bad...

But not serious...

If you really want details Pm me...

I just want to forget the whole thing happened. It put a rift between me and a few other DU posters, all for my love for a certain professional dancer who used to post here...:cry:

[progmom]

9. Hmmm....nothing I saw seemed like a breakdown.

So maybe I missed it?


There was one night when you were having a little bit of a tough time because you were feeling ignored, but I think we all have those nights.
So what did I miss?

[Longgrain]

15. I think that is what I was talking about...

The night I thought I was being ignored...

Don't worry, I'm over it now. :)

Hopefully my friends will forgive me...

[JohnKleeb]

11. Where is JimmyJazz? Me and Rev need her for something

[progmom]

12. I think she's sick, John.

She caught something awful.
I need her too! :)

[JohnKleeb]

13. poor thing

Well, you guys are gonna crack up at the whatmcallit.

[progmom]

16. at the whatmcallit?

can you be more specific, threadjacker?

[JohnKleeb]

17. you'll see

:).

[progmom]

18. hokay

I'm holding my breath.

[JohnKleeb]

22. crap it may be tommorow not tonight

[progmom]

23. you just let me know when to expect it

whatever"it" is. :)

[JohnKleeb]

24. Actually it could be up tonight

[NightTrain]

19. That's one of the advantages of being single.

I do whatever I want around here and no one bothers me! :bounce:

[thecai]

21. Night Train's Right!

I second THAT emotion!:thumbsup:

[JimmyJazz]

25. people just don't understand....

either you get it or you don't.

BTW - the nyquil isn't working. Damn.

[ScreamingMeemie]

26. MrG hates it hates it hates it. Therefore I am only on when he is at

work, when I am working ( I work from home),or when he is asleep...which pretty much covers the whole day. ;)

It was awful when I was in the hospital and off DU for three weeks. I don't know what was worse...almost croaking, or not being able to check in on DU. :hi:
