When you can recognize a dupe

When you start to believe the opinions of some of the basement dwellers on here

Think that all cops are bad

Think that zombies are real

Talk to more anonymous names on a computer screen than you do actual people

Have a high post count to years joined ratio

In my dreams I'm trying to read and understand the misspelled words in a post.

Yep that's when I know I need to get out and pull the trigger more and spend less time understanding WTF was posted on ARFCOM.

Hey , I resemble that remark.

My personal sign of Arfcom addiction...........I saw a hot chick walking near my apartment the other day. She was wearing an excessively short skirt and showing cleavage................

The first thing that entered my mind was this :

The SECOND thing that entered my mind................Wait for it....................

When shopping with the wife and she
asks "Which one do you like better"
not paying any attention, you reply
"Get both"

Still listening to Subnet radio at 4am after even Subnet has gone to bed.

You have to go to the Doctor because of back problems caused by your computer chair.

You waste time at work thinking up new post topics.

You're starting to believe Ron Paul is electable and that FRED is a tool of the CFR.

Ron Paul groupies have been littering I-95 and Jax with Ron Paul banners, one guess says they don't come back and collect the litter when the primaries are over.

Oh I see you've had the same dream.

I like PIE dreams better, but F'n ARF posts are bumping my wet dreams back to the end of the line and my nights are not long enough for me too enjoy them.

when every headline on CNN is something you've already read about on arfcom
when - if you DO read something new on a news site - you think, "man, I can't wait to see what the hive has to say about THAT."

No shit, when you here some breaking news here and it hant made the wire yet, that is classic!

My ass falls asleep from sitting in front of the computer too long.

And the fact that I threw down my double whopper to quickly reply to this with ketchup and mayo on my fingers and now on my keyboard are possible signs.
