Do you feel compelled to log onto DU every single day?

I just can't seem to let a day go by without logging onto DU. Always, I read the posts in the Lounge, GD, and LBN. Sometimes, I even post a little myself, too.

What about you?

:D

1. I'm an addict, baby.

This is what I do as a break from job hunting. It is only slightly less maddening.

Like reading the daily newspaper.

Don't by lies anymore, that's why I read DU.

10. Well, I can think of a thing or two that would keep me away...

So, if you don't want the Hyp to be around making his usual daffy comments, just get him a nice yummy boyfriend to play with! :D

26. Notice that "wannabe" starts with a Dubya.

Mel Gibson inspired. It's a Mad Max & Jesus wannabe thing.

I find myself neglecting my work. I log on to DU during work

and check frequently. This is almost an obsession. Is there an DU Anonymous out there?

It is bedtime now. Gotta get up early tomorrow...just step away from the computer...no more responses to any of the threads...tomorrow will be another day...be strong...:crazy:

17. I have to every day

I use it to find out what going on, what did I miss while I was at work or wherever. Plus it restores my faith in the American people to know not everyone is a mindless banana republican goose stepping behind fuhrer bush.

18. I rid myself of cable so I come here to see whats goin on.

ALOT less stress in my life too. Cable news coverage of Kerry was really pissing me off! But I was watching Brokaw yesterday and he had a piece on Kerry and Bush* and it was NOT flattering to Kerry. I'm sick of TV.

Latest Breaking News
Editorials
GD

in tabs, and it's usually open on my desktop.

24. It is hard to miss a day

Not only do I read great articles and find new websites, I also have laughed my ass off reading some threads. Where else can you find that combination?

I will be gone over Memorial Day, so I will be having withdrawal symptoms. Is there a DU answer to methadone?
