CONFESS! Do you have such a DU addiction that even when you are not here

[GreenPartyVoter]

you think about being here? Or worse still, do you have imaginary DU conversations in your head and post threads and read the replies in your mind?

1. I have an almost crippling fear that I'm being talked about.

:scared:

3. Who are you?

And why are you in my brain?

[mopinko]

5. yes

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

7. No, I never think about checking any website

unless I'm bored and at home.

[GreenPartyVoter]

8. Can't. Comprehend. *lol*

9. I actually had a dream about DUers last night

weird...had to have myself committed (as in psychiatric
hospital) to visit two DUers....lol

we sat on the lawn and smoked cigarettes.

[GreenPartyVoter]

11. That's....different. :^)

10. I often dream in posts

Reply back and forth with various DUers. I wake up wondering if I really had that conversation.

I've also caught myself saying the letters W-T-F instead of what they stand for.

[GreenPartyVoter]

13. Yes, I often have the weird "Did I really say that or just dream it?" ex-

perience, and not just with DU. I have a habit of confusing thinking about doing something with the actual act. (Yes, I am a woman, who, if she actually ironed clothes, would fret about whether she really turned it off or if she had just thought about it.)

19. I have to say that it doesn't just apply to DU for me either

I was anxiously awaiting news on a job, had my cell phone by the bed. I was sick, so I was sleeping half the day. I dreamed that they called me and told me that I didn't get it, then I called several people to let them know I didn't get it. When I woke up, I had to check the call logs on my phone to see if it had really happened. None of it had, of course.

No, I didn't get the job in reality, but I was at work the day they called my cell to tell me.

12. When I'm not here, I find myself thinking ... "Ooo - that would be a

great thread topic." And, usually they're not that great ... especially when I actually post one.

[GreenPartyVoter]

16. Understood. Note how fast

this thread died.

14. I dream in threads sometimes.

I don't think about DU VERY much when I'm away from the computer, unless something I want to post pops into my head, then I kind of store it away until I get back to my computer.

[frictionlessO]

15. I live in the bustling town of DU, population ~ 67000.

I moved here late last year as an internet refugee. Since then I spend about 60% of all my freetime visiting friends here.

DU is in many ways on my mind constantly.

[GreenPartyVoter]

17. Yep. DU is my hometown too

[RandomKoolzip]

18. No. The only thing I dream about is crushing my enemies.

[GreenPartyVoter]

20. How do you plan to overthrow the BFEE, anyhoo?

[tigereye]

27. you or the large purple thing?

;)

[RandomKoolzip]

32. Who, Grimace?

Grimace is my lover. He just sits around drinking milkshakes and bathing in the blood of the innocent while I crush my enemies.

[nutshell2002]

21. more addicting than crack

not...that..I've...tried...crack..ummm..

[Lone_Star_Dem]

22. I knew I had stepped over the edge when I started thinking

Wow! I should post a thread on DU about this, when events happen. :D

[KurtNYC]

23. When I go to newspaper sites

I look for the reply button on their articles. It is very unsatisfying that they don't have one.

[Bouncy Ball]

26. LMAO

That has happened to me, too! Glad to hear it's not just me.

[GreenPartyVoter]

30. That is what Yahoo news is for. *g*

[SOteric]

24. Erm....No.

[RevolutionaryActs]

25. .......

.... maybe.

[tigereye]

28. i do have a place in my social brain network (?)

for my buddies here and for DU in general... kind of like the online coffee klatch connection... I don't dream about threads though, although I do catch myself laughing about something someone here said, and then I have to explain at great length to my husband what it was and who said it. And then he rolls his eyes... ;)

[Bethany Rockafella]

29. You know you're here too much when you are having conversations

with folks and you include in your conversation shorthand words like "DU", but the other folks say "what is DU?"

[SarahB]

31. Not really.

I think about or converse with a handful of people I'm closer with, but that's about it. :shrug:

[DistressedAmerican]

33. On Obssive Days And When There Are Interesting Happenings And I Don't Have

an Internet(s) connection...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

34. YES! YES! YES! A THOUSAND TIMES: YES!

I've got it bad, this monkey on my back...Oh, but it is so much fun!

:woohoo:

:woohoo:
