signs that i am on the computer working or playing video games way too much for my own good: 1._(taken from a discussion on IM earlier)_ sometimes i try to “control z” real life, like if i say something that i wanna take back ill do control z with my left hand even though there is no keyboard kinda like air guitar except nerdy 1. sometimes i say “LOL” or other abbreviations instead of laughing or saying whatnot 2. sometimes if i am playing guitar i will do “control s” after a particularly cool jam, sort of like the “control z” thingie only a little up and to the right. 3. when getting out of my Jeep, sometimes i will grab the 4wd shifter like a mouse and try to move it towards the start menu to “turn off” 4. sometimes when i am fishing and i catch a big fish, i check in the bottom of my vision area to see how many experience points i racked up 5. sometimes, (ok, not very often, but a few times) after a night of partying, i reassure my friends by telling them i will call them when i get 127.0.0.1 ---

For awhile it was a craze to say computer slang out-loud. I wanted to body slam every little punk \*\*\* CS weirdo that did that crap. The people around here are REALLY annoying and think it is funny to say the same stuff for like 3yrs. ---
