Without naming names, cause denial is bliss, I finally found out the correct terminology that describes some of our online family. :lol:

Internet Addiction Disorder or IAD

Symptoms of Internet Addiction Disorder:

1) Using the online services everyday without any skipping.

2) Loosing track of time after making a connection.

3) Goes out less and less.

4) Spending less and less time on meals at home or at work, and eats in front of the monitor.

5) Denying spending too much time on the Net.

6) Others complaining of your too much time in front of the monitor.

7) Checking on your mailbox too many times a day.

8) You think you have got the greatest web site in the world and dying to give people your URL.

9) Loggin onto the Net while already busy at work.

10) Sneaking online when spouse or family members not at home, with a sense of relief.

Does this sound like you? :D :haha:

 
Ok, check out this survey, I am definetely guilty of question 7. In this respect, I am like a mosi to a bug zapper. GB's don't help either. :D

And question 6, I know of a few names I could put here. :bleh:

IAD, whatever. TVAD, ADD, ADHD. Maybe I'm just lazy. Or prefer hanging out with a bunch of people who share a common interest, as opposed to doing chores.
