...you try to usher your SO to bed so that the gaming will commense.

Nothing worse then being in the middle of an instance and hearing someone say "If you're going upstairs, can you....".

.....when you put Gemstone events in your schedule book.

:whistle:

You turn up the volume read loud when leaving the room so you can hear if anyone IM's you.

They got me. :(


Oh snap they did it again.


You message someone via IM when they are less than 20 feet away
You run four chat programs all at once... Yahoo Messenger, ICQ, AIM and MSN
You talk on the phone with the same person you are sending an instant message to.

[Shari]

When you're on vacation IN HAWAII and you pay a sick amount of money per hour to check your email and the boards.

:(

:help: me.

[Toxicvixen]

See, now *I* could have kept your attention on a tropical island....

(no, I'd probably be over your shoulder to read the boards as well) :(

[Latrinsorm]

When you open up IE to go check the boards, decide to do work instead, close it, and immediately open up IE again.

When you get up to go to class and realize halfway out the door that you REALLY have to go to the bathroom.

When you tell yourself, "Okay, 5 more minutes of checking the boards/hunting before I start what I need to do.. I PROMISE!"

[AnticorRifling]

When your homepage is http://forum.gsplayers.com at home and at work.

You don't think it's odd when one of your coworkers takes a day off for a game release and you wish you could too.

Bob did this to me once. Then again his phone sucks ass so it's ok I guess.

You have spent a small nest egg on your machine. (Including software, peripherals, subsciptions, etc.)

You spend more time in front of it than your TV.

You spend more time in front of it than a newspaper.

You spend more time in front of it than with other people.

Guilty save the first one as all my stuff be free w00t.

[Artha]

You refuse to go to a vacation spot with no electricity and no phone lines.
You turn your computer off and get this awful epmty feeling, like you just pulled the plug of your loved one.
You check your mail. It says "no new messages." So you check it again.
The last hottie you picked up was only a jpeg. :(((((
You can now type over 70 WPM.
You message someone via IM when they are less than 20 feet away.
You order pizza online - because you can't be bothered to call.
The last movie you've seen was on your Quicktime player. (Ok, DivX. Whatev.)

You’ve closed the deal with someone you’ve met online.

Ok, not really. Probably many people who aren’t computer addicts have done this. Its just another extention of the “meat market”. Heh, people.

You've closed the deal with more than five people you met online.

That's a little better.

[peam]

After reading that, I'm not so sure I'd have ever gotten laid if computers, black-rimmed glasses, and alcohol didn't exist.

Gemstone is why I type faster. Gemstone should be renamed TYPE OR DIE.

[Edited on 2-23-2005 by Toxicvixen]

You give up on closing the deal to get to level 32

[Wezas]

If I'm at home - I always use the computer to order from Pizza Hut. They've got my credit card already stored, and I can just click "repeat last order" and sign the receipt when they show up.

No more fucking up my order.

Now, to get WoW to use the "/pizza"

[Myshel]

When you wake up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and go check to see who is online and if you have any mail.

[4a6c1]

......you start designing a character idea while your supposed be designing a consultant/employee interview schedule.

(happened yesterday. im so pathetic. :no: )

[Shari]

You're designing alters in your notebook when you should be taking notes for your Egyptian Art class. :(
