You and Your Computer
You know it is time to reassess your relationship with your
computer when ...
- You wake up at 4 O'clock in the morning to go to the
bathroom and stop to check your email onthe way back to
bed.
- You turn off your computer and get an awful empty
feeling, as if you just pulled the plug on a loved one.
- You decide to stay in college for an additional year or
two, just for the free internet access.
- You laugh at people with 28.8 modems.
- You start using smileys :-) in your snail mail.
- You find yourself typing "com" after every
period when using a word processor.com
- You can't correspond with your mother because she doesn't
have a computer.
- When your email box shows "no new messages" and
you feel really depressed.
- You don't know the gender of your three closest friends
because they have nondescript screen name and you never
bothered to ask.
- You move into a new house and you decide to netscape
before you landscape.
- Your family always knows where you are.
- In real life conversations, you don't laugh, you just say
"LOL, LOL."
- After reading this message, you immediately forward it to
a friend!
