You Know You're Addicted to your Blog When... |
|
If you can't access the site, you have a minor freak out - and a major case of hitting reload. You found yourself composing journal entries during dates, movies, even sex! When you're out, you suddenly think of a witty reply to a comment somebody made to you... several days ago. You've downloaded some sort of blog program which has only the purpose of making entries easier to write without going on the site manually. You consider it a great offence if someone deletes you off their friend's list. The first thing you do every day when you go online is check your friends blogs - even before checking your email. You actually paid money for a few extra pictures with a full account when you could actually just alternate pics when you want to for your screen icons. When your friends ask what's new, you get mad at them because you already wrote it in your blog and they didn't check it yet. You have put more time into your blog than all your assignments for the semester. You have more friends in the blogosphere than in real life. You've met at least 50% of your Blogger friends. You can't seem to call your friends by their real names - only blog names will do. You've fallen in love with someone you met on blogger. You have posted about a party or get together on your blog... and random strangers showed up. You are guilty of traveling more than an hour to meet someone with Blogger. (Extra points for traveling five hours or more) You've written a protected entry about one of your blog friends. (Extra points if they eventually found out about it) You have written posts to notify people you're going to sleep. You talk about your blog friends to your real life friends all the time... like they're a part of your group. You've created a blog community, and people actually post in it. You've been recognized in real life by a fellow blogger'er. You have friended someone because of their blog icon. You have "pity friends" on your list, who you would defriend if you could. You've pimped one of your friends on journal, trying to get people to friend him / her. Instead of doing research, you post difficult questions on your blog. Your pets all have their own blogs. You know, right now, how many people have friended you (without peeking). You've stopped being friends with someone in real life because of something they've said on your blog. You're guilty of posting sexy or nude pictures to get more people to friend you. You have consoled yourself after a horrible day thinking "At least this will make a great blog post" You're jealous of people who have more friends and / or comments than you. You have written a really great, solid post - only to be disappointed by the lack of good comments. You're guilty of commenting excessively to get more traffic to your journal. You've deleted a post a few minutes (or hours) after you've written it, because it seemed lame in retro spect. You have an additional, secret journal that hardly anyone knows about. You've broken up with someone - or ended a friendship - soley via Blogger. You have gotten mean anonymous comments (bonus points for figuring out who it was via their IP) You've been reported (or reported someone) to Blogger Abuse. You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends who are blog addicts. |
