Can you relate to this!

Can any of you relate to these „addiction“ quips? I sure can :)The last time you looked at the clock it was 11:30pm, and in what seems like only a few seconds later, your little sister runs past you to catch her 7am school bus.The remote to the T.V. is missing…and you don’t even care.You begin to wonder how your ISP can call 400 hours per month „unlimited!“You ask a plumber if he could replace the chair in front of your computer with a toilet.The last girl you picked up was a 800×66 jpeg.You never have to deal with busy signals when calling your ISP …because you never log off!Your wife makes a new rule: „The computer cannot come to bed with us.“You tell the kids they can’t use the computer because „Daddy’s got work to do“ and you don’t even have a job.You scan restroom stall for hot HTML addresses.You have comandeered your teenager’s phone line for the net and even his friends know not to call on his line anymore.You check your email. It says „no new messages.“ So you check it again…and again…and again…You suddenly realize there is not a sound in the house, and you have no clue where your children are.Your dog has its own home page.You step out of your room and realize that your parents have moved and you don’t have a clue when it happened.You refuse to go to a vacation spot with no electricity and no phone lines.Your bookmark list takes 15 minutes to scroll from top to bottom.You’re surprised to learn there’s also a 2 o’clock in the „afternoon“.You unsuccessfully try to download pizza from www.dominos.com.Your mouse-clicking forearm rivals Popeye’s.Batteries in the TV remote now last for years.Your wife drapes a blond wig over your monitor to remind you of what she looks like.
