Do you feel like SO is taking up more and more of your time?


Well you may have an addiction problem, my friend.


Common SO addiction symptoms:

-You spend the majority of your day on SO.
OR, the worst case scenario (WCS): You spend every waking hour on SO.

-You think about your SO buddies more than your real-life friends.
WCS:Your SO friends are your only friends.

-When you're away from your computer, you think about what you're going to post.
WCS:You're never away from your computer.

-You start having dreams about SO.
WCS:You can't afford to sleep or you might miss some important posts.

-You start watching less TV to make more time for the internet.
WCS: You stop watching TV completely.

-You tell yourself you can leave, but you haven't tried to yet.
WCS: You tried leaving and returned after 10 seconds.


-You start planning your future around SO.
WCS: What future?

-You want to name your first child SO.
WCS: At this rate, you'll never have a child.

-You feel as if you don't have a life.
WCS: SO is your life.

Thats pretty good.:lol:

-You spend the majority of your day on SO.OR, the worst case scenario (WCS): You spend every waking hour on SO.

WCS:You can't afford to sleep or you might miss some important posts.

I Actually do have dreams about alot of people on here. I Once dreamt I Was trapped in a Library with robyrob.


--You start watching less TV to make more time for the internet.

-You want to name your first child SO.

Sadly, I Do not have a life. But hey....At least this place gives me something to do and neat people to hang out with.

sadly, all of those briefly apply to me inlcuding some of the WCS's, except the one about your first child.

i'm gonna take another break from here soon though.

I've been seeing a psychiatrist about this.

Anybody who hangs out in the "TV DVD's You Have" thread know I watch TV. :lol: And I just got back from playing some video games. Earlier, I was watching my WTB DVD.

Well im not gonna be on much anyways since i have a play coming up and i have all day rehearsals and then there is high school field hockey and horse back riding. I'm also trying to maintain a 90 or higher average for my grades once school starts, since last semester was the only time I have gotten them and I'm trying to keep it up. But I'm sure I'll still have time on here. :)

Sadly, I don't have much of the symptoms. But I am going to name my child SO....

What? It's a good name! Atleast it's better than the name "Harpo".

Actually, I have no desire to have a child at age 14. So if I really do(Someday) I might change the name to something like, Jack....

*steps up to podium* Hi my name is Angela, and I have an addiction, my addiction is to a website called Sitcoms Online.

It takes up my every waking hour, when I'm not online, I think about it. It's the first thing I think about when I wake up.

Doctor do you have a cure? ;) :D

-You think about your SO buddies more than your real-life friends. --Lately, yep... I do.

-You start having dreams about SO. :nod:

the most recent one i can remember was from a few nights ago allison came to stay at my house for a few days. at one point she was on the computer and i was watching larry king live and vicki lawrence came on but i didn't tell her.. that's all i remember :lol: i think i dreamed about her again last night though, i thnk she was trying to kill me or something. O_O

:lol: You guys have funny dreams about this place. Usually mine just consist of me talking in regular threads and then always having to edit everything I say. :grr:

Probably because you didn't tell her about Vicki. :lol:

yeah, i have a pathetic life but I don't come here that much anymore. it's pretty boring unless there is a fight or something. other than those its "WUTZ YR FAVE COLOR/////?". At least on chit chat. I have had dreams like where I log on here and post something, but not anything in particular.

I'm usually online or watching TV, except for the past few days... I slept from July 31 till tonight.

i was thinking that too. :lol:

I used to be on this board too much for my own good, but I've managed to slow down. Mostly because it's nicer outside now, but I'm glad I'm not posting as much anymore. I still post everyday, but not all day and night.

I came to SO, because here I have met a lot of nice people, that I enjoy chatting with; but I do have a life, like work and outisde SO relationships, like a boyfriend and all...:lol:

YA DIZ BORD IZ ALL K3WL N STUFFIEZ LOL I GOT BAND IN LYK JUNARY OR SUMTIN BUT I CAME BACK!!!!!!!!!!11111111111111111111111111111111111111:p :D :cool:

Great thread, BTW.:lol: :D

We could have meetings - with food and drinks (alcoholic beverages are acceptable since this isn't AA).

In a few weeks we could all be cured - if it weren't for the fact that these meetings will give us one more reason to continue our addiction to SO......

omg: SHE CAME ON AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME?!?!?!?! :cuss: That's it....................:boxing: I came back to kill you in your dream because you didn't tell me. :crying:

I mentioned earlier I have celebrity dreams a lot. There was this one time, about a month or so back, where Clay Aiken was in my dream. :grr: Amy and Crystal know about it, obviously... I posted about it before.

...

In it, I dreamt that....I don't know. Clay was here in town and his concert had just ended, so there was the usual swarm of fans around him when he came out, and he came up to ME and said, "Hey, can I get a ride with you?" and I said "Sure" so Clay followed me to my mom's car and he got in the front seat and I got in the backseat behind him. I took my shoes and socks off and put them up on the armrest where he was sitting, and he was talking to my mom the whole time. :crazy:

And I've also had a LiveJournal dream...I dreamt about a buddy of mine from my LiveJournal, but it's nobody you would know here...Gene Simmons from KISS was in it, too. :eek:

Yeah, I'm addicted to this site.
I actually have more friends here than I do in real life!
