sangerin: True statements in bold, comments in italics.
You know you're addicted to LiveJournal when . . .
1. If you can't access the site, you have a minor freak out - and a major case of hitting reload.
2. You found yourself composing journal entries during concerts, movies,even sex!
3. When you're out, you suddenly think of a witty reply to a comment somebody made to you... several days ago.
4. You actually call it LJ and not LiveJournal.
5. You've downloaded some sort of LJ program which has only the purpose of making entries easier to write without going on the site manually.
6. You consider it a great offence if someone deletes you off their friend's list.
7. The first thing you do every day when you go online is check your friends journals - even before checking your email. I actually check it while downloading my e-mail, but most of my e-mail is LJ comments anyway.
8. 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.
9. When your friends ask what's new, you get mad at them because you already wrote it in your LJ and they didn't check it yet. This is true of my family more than my friends.
10. You have put more time into LJ than all your assignments for the semester. N/A.
11. You have more friends on LJ than in real life. Heh. Probably.
12. You've met at least 50% of your LJ friends.
13. You can't seem to call your friends by their real names - only LJ names will do.
14. You've fallen in love with someone you met on LJ. Well, not exactly, but I've come to like some people really well.
15. You have posted about a party or get together on your LJ... and random strangers showed up.
16. You are guilty of travelling more than an hour to meet someone with LiveJournal. (Extra points for travelling five hours or more)
17. You've written a protected entry about one of your LiveJournal friends.
18. You have written posts to notify people you're going to sleep.
19. You talk about your LJ friends to your real life friends all the time... like they're a part of your group.
20. You've created a LJ community, and people actually post in it.
21. You've been recognized in real life by a fellow LJ'er.
22. You have friended someone because of their LiveJournal icon.
23. You have "pity friends" on your list, who you would defriend if you could.
24. You've pimped one of your friends on journal, trying to get people to friend him/her.
25. Instead of doing research, you post difficult questions on your LiveJournal.
26. Your pets all have their own LiveJournals.
27. You know, right now, how many people have friended you (without peeking).
28. You've stopped being friends with someone in real life because of something they've said on LJ.
29. You're guilty of posting sexy or nude pictures to get more people to friend you.
30. You have consoled yourself after a horrible day thinking "At least this will make a great LJ post"
31. You're jealous of people who have more friends and/or comments than you. Ok, I admit it. Sometimes.
32. You have written a really great, solid post - only to be disappointed by the lack of good comments.
33. You're guilty of commenting excessively to get more traffic to your journal.
34. You've deleted a post a few minutes (or hours) after you've written it, because it seemed lame in retrospect.
35. You give shout outs to all your LJ friends on their birthdays. Well, to some of them. When I remember.
36. You have an additional, secret journal that hardly anyone knows about.
37. You've broken up with someone - or ended a friendship - solely via LiveJournal.
38. You have gotten mean anonymous comments (bonus points for figuring out who it was via their IP). Yes, I did have a troll for awhile. I disabled anonymous comments for a couple of months and he went away.
39. You've been reported (or reported someone) to LJ Abuse.
40. You've been featured on LJ Drama.
41. You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends who are LJ addicts.
