|
Edited on Tue Apr-14-09 04:09 PM by Bucky
#1: You rail against people you call "Obama fans"
#2: Yow get worked up about people railing against "Obama fans"
#3: You type a post in all caps because it's URGENT!! that everyone pay attention to you right fucking now.
#4: You think anything has to happen right fucking now.
#5: You worry about what impression the world gets of Democrats based on off-the-wall comments made in on-line forums.
#6: You refer to news personalities as "Bill O'Whorely" or "Fucker Carlson" in casual conversations with co-workers.
#7: You watch Fox News
#8: You've forgotten you children's names a/o existance
#9: You pronounce ROFL as a two syllable word
#10: You stare at the "My DU" page for two minutes, then hit refresh to see if anyone's still arguing with you. (Oh shit, I do that one!)
Any other signs I should know about?

You always take the opposite view when conversing with family and friends IRL, and must bite your tongue to keep yourself from asking for a link.
