Signs You're Spending Too Much Time ONline.....

Signs You're Spending Too Much Time ONline.....


30> You set your kitchen on fire while cooking dinner because
you
wanted to check your mail and while there you "just wanted to
see who was online"

29> When you are reading something printed, you wish you
could use a
search function to get to the point.

28> Someone at work tells you a joke and you say "LOL."

27> When you reply to someone verbally, your fingers start typing
your response.

26> You check your e-mail over and over, even when you know
there's
nothing there.

25> You watch TV with the closed captioning turned on.

24> You keep begging your friends to get a chat room account
so "we can hang
out."

23> Three words: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

22> You've even gotten on an airplane just to meet "sweet_girl"
face-to-face.

21> You have a vanity car tag with your screen name on it.

20> You have to get a 2nd phone line just so you can call Pizza
Hut.

19> You no longer type with proper capitalization, punctuation, or
complete sentences.

18> You have met over 100 onliners.

17> You begin to say "heh heh heh" instead of laughing.

16> When someone says "What did you say?" you reply "Scroll
up!"

15> You find yourself sneaking away to the puter in the night
when
your spouse is asleep.

14> You turn down the lights and close the blinds so people
won't
know you're online again.

13> You know more about online friends' daily routines than you
do
your own spouse's.

12> You find yourself lying to others about your time online and
when
they complain that your phone was busy you claim it was off
the
hook.

11> You have an identity crisis if someone is using a screen
name
close to your own.

10> You would rather tell people that your bloodshot eyes are
from
partying too much than the truth.

9> You change your screen name so much that you have to do a
whois
to know who you are.

8> You type email messages to people at the same time you are
talking on the phone with them

7> You won't work at a job that doesn't have a modem involved.

6> Your dog leaves you for lack of attention.

5>| You bring a bag lunch and a cooler to the computer.

4> You type faster than you can think.

3>| You can actually read and follow all the names of the cast
that
scrolls up your TV screen at the end of a movie.

2> You don't want to leave in case you miss something.

And the #1 sign you're spending too much time online.......

1> Tech Support calls "YOU" for help.

Ok, now count the number that were true, and if you have more
than 10
of them, you know you're hooked.
