You know you are online too much when..
• Tech Support calls you for help.
• When you are reading something printed, you wish you could use a search function to get to the point.
• Someone at work tells you a joke and you say "LOL."
• When you reply to someone verbally, your fingers start typing your
response.
• You check your e-mail over and over, even when you know there's nothing there.
• You watch TV with the closed captioning turned on.
• You keep begging your friends to get an account so "we can hang out."
• Three words: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
• You have a vanity car tag with your screen name on it.
• You have to get a 2nd phone line just so you can call Pizza Hut.
• You no longer type with proper capitalization, punctuation, or complete sentences.
• You have met over 100 onliners.
• You begin to say "heh heh heh" instead of laughing.
• When someone says "What did you say?" you reply "Scroll up!"
• You find yourself sneaking away to the computer in the night when your spouse is asleep.
• You know more about online friends' daily routines than you do your own spouse's.
• You find yourself lying to others about your time online, and when they complain that your phone was busy you claim it was off the hook.
• You have an identity crisis if someone is using a screen name close to your own.
• You change your screen name so much that you have to do a "who is" to know who you are.
• You type messages to people while you are on the phone with them at the same time.
• You won't work at a job that doesn't have a modem involved.
• You bring a bag lunch and a cooler to the computer.
• You type faster than you can think.
• You can actually read and follow all the names of the cast that scrolls up your TV screen at the end of a movie.
• You don't want to sign off because you're afraid you'll miss an instant message.
• When you try to log on and your modem doesn't work you imitate the modem tones.... and it works.
