You KNOW you spend TOO much time on ATS when.....

YOU NEVER LOG OFF!

1) You attempt to star and flag a news article.

2) 2nd line

3) You hear random advertisements in the background of your browser but can't find which of the 15 ATS tabs in the browser is the culprit!

4) when you have 15 tabs open to read threads "later" that you will never actually read...

5) more to come when im not busy!!

Your home page is ATS.
and there is always the persitent inquiring from the family
"when can I use the computer??"
Time spent on ATS is a good time!!

PLPL

when you know a reply in a thread is a troll posting

When youve been arguing your point for 3 pages and you start to realise you havnt got a bloody clue what your talking about.

Guilty!!!

When your warehouse is on fire because fire inspection has been missed months in a row.

I often find myself in that situation, except when I realise it I then convince myself that I should continue as if I'm playing devils advocate.

Makes me feel better at least

... when you have over 50,000 posts. I just can't help myself. Gotta talk.

I know, i just got totally mullered in another thread cos i just would not shut up.lol.

When being 404'd induces an all consuming rage.

When you get the wife to check your posts to guage reaction

When you start to fancy other members avatars

When you sit here for over an hour scratching your head trying to think of a cool comment to post in this thread.

When having a discussion with your wife, she suddenly changes the subject
and your first thought is to give her an "Off Topic"....

When you look at strangers on the street and wonder who might be an ATS member...

When you'd rather get a star and a flag for something insightful, and doing research, instead of taking up that offer of sex.

When you've posted a thread and you are more proud of it that your kids.

This thread is full of educational tidbits...

Guilty as charged
When you are at a music festival and try to judge ATS members by the slogans on their T'shirts

When you login as a first time member, never log out and "remember password" and bookmark the page

You know you've been here too long when you care, see and talk to your ATS friends more than your real ones.

And family.
