Default Is anyone else addicted?

I love this website. I check it a few times a day, and I love reading and watching the discussions here. I am a real novice in the Corvette world, but I feel that I am learning a lot by reading the discussions that take place here. It is nice... no... it is REAL nice to know that there are paople out there who are willing to share their experience and wisdom when it comes to all things Corvette.
So, I geuss that in a sense I have become a little "addicted" to the CorvetteForum the way that others become "addicted" to ebay. Is this normal - or do I need therapy? :D

You are right, it is an addiction.
But I don't have that anymore, now I am "clinically addicted"
Thats right I need pills to stay sane.

I'm not sure if it's normal, but if you get the number to a good therapist, could you email it to me?? :crazy:

I'll actually run in, if I'm watching TV, on commercials to check for new posts!!!!!!

Look at some of the post counts some members have that hang in OT and you'll see a new definition of addicted.

No. I'm not addicted. @ work I have a laptop on my desk wired into the LAN which accesses a shared T1. I've been known to hit the forum from work when a I have a few minutes of down time (which isn't often, lol). I hit the forum in the afternoon when I get home from work. I hit it again in the evening before nighty-night time.

I am not addicted. Not me. Ain't no monkey on MY back.

Addicted? Naw, that's something that happens to you with drugs or something that you can kick. This is REALLY serious!

Well actually the Corvedte is an addition...with no cure...only treatments, like:
-waxing/polishing
-Vette shows
-go fast mods
-racing
-driving
-and of course the Corvette Forum.

So I guess this Forum is a sub-addiction. :lol:
