You know you spend too much time on the OT forum when....
Oh yeah, a new one indeed. So here goes.

You know you spend too much time on the OT forum when....

- you are procrastinating work to argue with Albert speer about racism.

- you know any news before they hit the 6 oclock news...

- you have run out of topics to start threads (this is the case here)

Sigh. Guess I'm guilty of about all the above. At least I think I won the arguement I had with Speer last week.

You are prepared to read even the most boring geeky threads (cf. most of today's output) just to get to the entertaining trolls, flames and spam that you know will turn up somewhere.

uh...When, all of a sudden, "jackass" has become your new insult of choice.

When someone mentions CIVIII and you think "You play that game too!!?"

When you type reports for school/work and when you get done you have to edit out the vB code.

When you know where Mingapulco is.

You wonder why so-and-so has been around in a while.

You defend MrFun when someone calls him a racist.

Out of respect you will never end a post with:

have a nice day
