When you come home from work.. where you've spent your day dealing with the Internet or using it and go straight to your PC to "check" your emails!

When you realise you seriously have nothing left to look at but you keep going over the same sites just to use the net !

When you use words like Woot!11!111! Pwned and Hoaxor !

I'm l33t me :(

Add to that, playing World of Warcaft (or some other MMORPG) for every non-sleeping/working hour of the day. :lol1: :Whatever_

If I'm working shifts and have no work to do(which is most nights) then I can spent the full 12 hours at work on the net and maybe another 4 when I get home and then do it all again the next night.

We normally have a theme night and spent the shift finding all the Joey Deacon websites (for who are old enough to remember him) or all the A team sites and then play back all the Mr Tsayings. It's good way to pass the night :)

You dont even have 1000 scoobynet posts in nearly 3 years, I think you're safe :)

billythekid 10 October 2007 08:59 AM

I must be an addict then :o :eek2:

v8voodoo 10 October 2007 06:27 PM

I can waste days at a time on here. Just because I haven't posted as much as others doesn't mean I'm not here and on othe forums posting and reading the posts. :(

So I think I'm addicted. :freak3:
Now, seriously, how do I go about fixing it..?

Nige. :wonder:

Go back to a 14.4k modem, should be enough to put you off !
