You know you're spending too much time on ATS when... (Fill in the blank)

When you come to ATS to find out what hoaxes/lies are being spread instead of coming to look for truth.

When you wake up in the middle of the night with a flash "duh...I forgot to mention that in that thread !!"

Yeah, it did happen to me but somehow I feel that I am not alone...

I need a life. Seriously.

You and me both SOTS..... LOL

Double Post

"Someone on ATS is wrong!! I'll fix them....."

13 hours, 16000000 cups of coffee, a bottle of Valium, 3 keyboards and a divorce later:

"That'll learn them" ... THUD. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

How about the fact I have clicked on tools>subscriptions so many times my mouse is hovered over the link before the page loads.

Edit:
And you remember how many posts were in each subscribed thread the last time you looked, to know if someone has commented or not.

instead of bookmarks you have history as the quickest route.

1. True - last night I had a long, exotic but mixed dream, very incongruent subjects ... but, the tale end was the U2U box.

2. True - the cat loves when the computer goes "off", because he's going to get extra attention. He knows the sound. Once, the computer locked up and all the task manager and other shut down methods didn't work ... so, I wiggled my foot over to the power off button on the surge protector and the cat's eyes got as big as a storybook Cheshire cat's. Now, I have to log off often enough to keep the now "switch savvy" cat from powering me down mid-post.

3. When ATS starts to be an acronym for "All That *bleep*"

You know you're spending too much time on ATS when...

Looks like I don't spend enough time here - that wasn't funny! Poor whale must have been shocked.
*sarcasm off*

You know you are spending too much time on ATS when ... the last post you read is also your desktop wallpaper.

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

You start checking threads at 06:00 AM and stop at 05:00 AM when you realize you haven't even had your late supper

....when ever ANYTHING happens..my first action is to check ATS..and if its not being talked about...'forgedd aboud it'

and most icons on my the desktop are links to ATS

Another ATS dream! Obviously, too much time here.

Dreampt I was dragging and dropping posts on top of the one best (most informative) post in the thread. Each time I'd drag and drop the post, the AI (artificial intelligence) of the ATS script would meld the better post into one larger article. It deleted the duplicate and off-topic information, added the new information, sequenced the events chronologically according to the source material (and not to the post date of the post that was merged), and took care of grammar and spell-checking.

Hmmmm, that's a dream that could come true in the next few decades!

Yep, too much time dreaming in ATS here.

Holy cow !

You think the post office misdirecting an overseas package is grounds to start a thread claiming an NWO conspiracy to keep mail from people....

You are sitting around one night after about a month of marriage and realize you never asked your husband one of the most important questions before you married him...

"Do you believe the 9/11 Official story?"
"Yes" he says.
"HAVE YOU EVER EVEN HEARD OF BUILDING SEVEN"
"No..." *looks scared*

Then force him to watch a 2 hour and 45 minute video on the topic.

Your friends come over on a Saturday and you shoo everyone out by 8:30 every time and when your friends finally go "WHAT HAPPENS AT NINE?!" you meekly say.. "A radio show..."

You won a tin foil hat contest. You played Eye of the Tiger while making it.

You avoid the ET forums at all costs because god forbid one of those threads drag you in you wont sleep for a week.

You get paranoid sometimes and wonder if the mods can see which replies you Star because honestly some of the replies you starred make you feel a little ashamed.

You break into uncontrollable laughter out of nowhere and your husband looks at you like you are crazy and asks why and you have to explain ATS cliches in order to explain why every time a veteran member calls out another member on the phrase "get Phage in here" an angel gets her wings.

You constantly refresh the auto-refresh new topics page and every time you post a thread you have that feeling of "Well let's see if this baby can sink or swim!".

Your heart almost stopped when you met someone who had never heard of Fukushima so you spent the next two hours explaining it all and when they asked "How the hell do you know all this stuff?" you didn't really have a good answer....

You -LIKE- the ATS commercials on ATS live. (I don't. But if you do...)

Your husband asks you how your day went and you said

"Today was actually one of those days where I hoped to log into ATS and there finally be a malicious alien invasion".....
That happened last night.

When you cannot remember your ATS password no matter how hard you try because of the
obvious implanted forgetting chip in your brain .

When every letter of the alphabet brings up a suggestion to an ATS article in your address bar.

when you start arguing with your own posts

..Beijing looks like a scene from Blade Runner and you have a high resolution picture of Jupiter open and it reminds you that Earth is becoming a Star Wars type planet mixed with Terminator and even Batman.
