all right.

i confess! i'm a proper addict! this is a fantastic website - filled with goodies and great people.

and i know that i'm not alone :)

so... i challenge forum members to describe 501 ways to know you've been posting on allnurses.com too much. here's some to start off...

remember to put the numbers

1. you're still stuck in threads from 2002, trying to catch up.

2. during conversations in 'actual reality', you keep looking for the emoticon buttons whenever you are being sarcastic/trying to be funny/etc.

3. when arguing with your so, you quickly get your point in because you think the debate will get locked.

4. you try to find a pm function on the phone, so much easier than dialing.

5. when your family starts getting on your nerves, you want to pm a moderator to get them banned.

oops, forgot to check what number this was supposed to be, i'll have to come back and edit it later, but now I know I've been on here too long because as soon as something otherworldly happened at work, I had to jump on the computer with internet access at work and log it into the best nursing ghost story thread

okay, got it now, 156 would be the number

LOL - How funny - I keep telling people to come here and read the humor forums because they have me cracking up when I am at work!!

I have been checking this as soon as I get up for a few weeks - does the addiction wear off??

Also, I am trying to post more so as to improve my posts/day been on here on my profile!!!!

Thanks for the laughs everyone!!

158. you would rather read posts on here than watch the current hot new drama/reality show on tv!
