...when you look forward to three-day weekends just so that you can stay on a lot longer with no risk of getting in trouble at work.

...when you use "I have to check for messages" as an excuse to dodge the inlaws or any other household responsibility.

I made a little mistake there... the know/now pair doesn't equal here/hear etc.
But I do write 'now' instead of 'know' sometimes, because you don't pronounce the 'k' in 'know', and I think 'no' and 'know' at the same time, and what is produced is 'now'. So it really isn't the 'now' that's the actual word, but it's jibberish that's identical to a proper word. I think.

...when you look forward to your in-laws returning home just so you can spend time on 'poly again. (And that goes for even when you actually like your inlaws.)

That's one of the best ones I've read yet Skanky!

(He who if he's ever allowed by his wife to order from the 'poly store, will no doubt use FlameFlash now.)

Most people would use their real name as their online name, not usually the other way around - unless they have a Matrix fixation.

But then reassure yourself that you're not. I mean, six hours a day, it's like going to work or school but more fun.

So is your name Sagacious Dolphin? Or is this your new fake name and your actual name is Big Crunch?

-when you wake up in cold sweat and think about all the thread you haven't been able to reply to when you were sleeping

-when you stop sleeping to fix this problem

. . . when you see a car with the license plate "PCR 753" and think, "That'd put me below the custom avatar mark!"

. . . when you see a car whose license plate starts with "AH" and run it off the road.
