It's Time For......"Signs That You May Be Addicted to DU/The Lounge"!!
Edited on Tue Feb-07-06 08:13 PM by WritingIsMyReligion
I haven't seen one of these threads in a while.... I always love the creative responses everyone comes up with!

My contribution: You might be addicted to DU when you attempt to use DU smiley codes (: rofl : : hug : : pals : : bounce : etc.) in non-DU correspondence. Just a few minutes ago, a friend e-mailed me something very funny, and I actually typed out : rofl : (w/o spaces, of course) before I remembered that it was e-mail, not DU. :blush::blush:

So....What've you got???

:D :D ;)

2. You use the word "moran" in everyday conversation.
It's terrible, when I want to say "moron," I *always* think "moran," first! :grr:

5. Looking at my blog, I find myself thinking
that a "post your picture" thread may be in order at this point-
since it's been awhile....whoops!
Wrong spot :dilemma:

20. Me too
I check my email, then hit DU as soon as I get to work before I usually even get out my work from the day before. I spend the rest of the day going back and forth between DU and my work. Everytime I click to go to a new screen on the work side of things, I read DU until the page fully loads. Or until I force myself to get back to work!

22. Wow.
That's some serious DU obsession you've got going on....Have you tried a 12-step program???

I jest. I love it! So hilarious!

31. I'm here often enough
I should have trillions of posts, but I'm usually only on while at work so I don't get to post much.
I spend 80% of my computer time lurking and of that I spend maybe 2% posting. When I hit 50% posting time, I'll look into a 12 step progam...or be fired for not working!!!

:rofl:

13. I tell my friends and family that I'm online watching porn, or downloading
copyrighted material, just so they won't know how bad things really are.

23. OK, a *non-durty* one this time.
I always have three browser windows open: Facebook, my e-mail and DU. If DU is not third from the left, I seriously freak out!

27. What does 16000 posts in a year tell you?
This is one hell of a serious addiction!

I plan my day around it....

I plan my photo threads around it......

I plan my trips to the gym, and the store and God knows what else around it! Even the bathroom......and my meals, too..... :blush:

Just kidding. I tested though, and the PDA works fine in there.
