HOW TO TELL IF YOU'RE ADDICTED
TO THE INTERNET…
You
wake up at 3 a.m. to go to the bathroom and stop to check your e-mail on the
way back to bed.
You
get a tattoo that reads "This body best viewed with Netscape Navigator 4.0
or higher."
The
only topic of conversation you can talk with people about is your computer and
the internet.
You
turn off your modem and get this awful empty feeling, like you just pulled the
plug on a loved one.
You
decide to stay in college for an additional year or two, just for the free
Internet access.
Your
hard drive crashes. You haven't logged in for two hours. You start to twitch.
You pick up the phone and manually dial your ISP's access number. You try to
hum to communicate with the modem ... and you succeed.
You
find yourself typing "com" after every period when using a word
processor.com
You
refer to going to the bathroom as downloading.
You
start introducing yourself as "JohnDoe at AOL dot com."
All
of your friends have an @ in their names.
You
start telling someone about your computer and what you are doing on it and the
person looks at you funny and says you sound like a computer geek and they
don’t understand a word you are saying.
Your
cat has its own home page.
You
can't call your mother... she doesn't have a modem.
You
check your mail. It says "no new messages." So you check it again.
You
don't know what sex three of your closest friends are, because they have
neutral nicknames and you never bothered to ask.
You
tell the cab driver you live at http://2755.prospect.garden/house/brick.html.
You
start tilting your head sideways to smile.
You
think of contacting a loved one but feel restrained because the person doesn’t
have a computer.
You
start thinking in chat language ~ while carrying on a conversation in your
head.
You
find yourself typing to people in your thoughts ~ while carrying on a
conversation in your head.
Instead
of laughing at funny thoughts you think 'lol'.
You
can't stay away from it no matter how much you try.
You
find yourself wanting to contact someone but they don’t have a computer ~ so
you avoid contacting them while you wait for them to get a computer and come
online.
As
you drift off to sleep you find yourself typing out your thoughts about people.
You
see yourself in these jokes and think omg and begin to laugh.
