    You know you're on After Hours too much:
    • When someone tells you a joke - you laugh and say: "Thanks.."
    • When you masturbate, you think of Avatars.
    • When your walking down the road and a person slips in front of you and you say: "Fail"
    • When your house gets burgled and the first thing you do is post in the Help Desk.
    • When you discussing fear of starting threads with a psychiatrist.
    • When You walk down the road thinking about witty comments you should have made on a thread.
    • When your out and about, you wonder if any of the strangers are really your Boardsie friends.
    • When you find yourself using the term: 'Boardsie'.
    • When you're in a cafe and the waitress asks could she get you anything else and you say: "Yeah, your ma"
    • When you're in casualty, a Doctor tells you have a hairline fracture of the skull and you say: "Pics or get the fuck out"

    When you've read at least 7 or 8 of these type of threads.

    When you've a t-shirt with the same picture as your avatar on it (wearing it now in fact).

    When you've worn the boards t-shirt.

    You have seen these type of threads about a dozen times :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,800 ✭✭✭Senna


    When you hear something new, weird, funny and your first reaction is to rush to a computer and post a thread on it. You're REALLY on boards too often when you are disappointed there's a thread about it already.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,751 ✭✭✭Saila


    when you have to answer this one


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,072 ✭✭✭PeterIanStaker

    ....when you keep referencing random crap you read on boards in normal conversation with people who don't use boards and they look at you funny. Happens more often than I like to admit.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,762 ✭✭✭✭stupidusername


    When I'm talking to people (IRL :rolleyes:) I'm always saying things like ya I read about that the other day, or some people say so and so... :)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,739 ✭✭✭✭starbelgrade


    - When you know more about other posters lives than your own partners.

    - When you sign forms with your username instead of your real one.

    when someone irl tells you an interesting story

    and you have to really really fight the urge to say

    "pics or gtfo"

    or

    "cool story bro"

    That guy must have the highest thanks to post ratio ever.

    That I posted that, means I spend too much time on Boards.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,964 ✭✭✭ToniTuddle


    When you end up having a dream about a load of Boardsies all sitting in a room...talking about Boards.

    Definitely some of the other things pointed out too....

    Or when you say very often..... "ok ok I'll logout after this thread...I mean it this time"

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,975 ✭✭✭W.Shakes-Beer


    When you show friends stuff you though was funny on AH and they haven't got a clue what its about.

    When you refer to the regulars as "The Regulars" (you know who y'all are)

    When you feel your heart leap for joy when you see a thread with 0 replies and 1 view. time to put the wit hat on.

    When you notice you have AH open on 2 different taskbars.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,468 ✭✭✭Ectoplasm


    You get slightly annoyed at having to actually reply rather than clicking thanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,778 ✭✭✭Big Pussy Bonpensiero


    When your post per day stat is higher than 5...:(

    Forgot to add.

    When you go onto any other more serious forum (bereavement, PI etc.), read a thread a feel the instant urge to crack a gag of some form. THE SHAME OF IT ALL!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,204 ✭✭✭FoxT


    Hands up anybody who has said

    and expected to be actually understood :D

    When you still reminisce about the time you got post of the day or won a photoshop competition.

    Those were the good days.
