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.

Those are great.

I'm here a good amount of the time, but no, I don't spend all day here.

Eh, I just moved last fall and wasn't going to school til January...I DO have friends in real life...But I'm also close to quite a few people on here (You know who you are).

Never happened to me.

Sorry, no SO dreams yet. I do have celebrity dreams all the time, though.

Quote:

Anybody who hangs out in the "TV DVD's You Have" thread know I watch TV.

And I just got back from playing some video games. Earlier, I was watching my WTB DVD.

TheGreatPretender · 08-02-2004, 07:13 PM

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?

-You start having dreams about SO.

i had a REALLY weird dream about SO a couple of nights ago; we had a great big SO convention, where we all go together for a big party, but Shannen Doherty crashed it and took *-Forever-* hostage (i have no idea why) and threatened to kill her unless we met her demands, which mostly involved everyone promising to watch her new reality show, so we all lied and said we'd watch it and they took her away in a white jacket that buckles up iin the back

Quote:

there seems to be a lot less worth watching on tv, but i've been picking up some dvd's to fix that

Quote:
