Should AB have a health warning

[ruby27]

I have done some networking with other Aber's and there is an anxiety that AB is addictive.
Now is it addictive; that people really can not be blamed for the amount of time they spend on here, even though this may be to the detriment of their job, family or social life?
Or is it that those people who can not control their uptake of AB are like any smoker, alcoholic, obese person, just lacking in moral fibre?
Personally I think it is addictive, but then I am not great on self discipline.
So are you in control, or are you starting to experience feelings of guilt, spending more time here than you will admit to your family, do you get withdrawl symptoms when your PC goes down?
If so should AB start up a self help group, employ a professional helper or do you think why waste AB revenue on the weak willed?

My apologies to any news reader. I posted this in AB suggestions, my profile confirms this, but somehow it has ended up hear. Odd.

Personally I find it changes me beyond recognition.

Hey
Now you are taking the mick. This could lead me to having a sense of paranoia, but I know what I read - this was just above bodylice's post a little while ago. Stop it, and stop it now.

Cries pitifully.

[Lady Muck]

You think you got problems? I don't even know who I am any more cause of some moron. Got any wine?

[Miss Random]

I know what you mean ruby27,
It took for my computer hard drive to crash and several days of withdrawal symptoms before I realised that I had other friends, family and a house like a sh!t hole before I sorted myself out....
... however, my computer is now fixed. And so am I.
The AB hit is sweeter than any other....

Or am I just nosey?

China
Lady Muck again! Surely you haven't been over posting, or is it that your China Doll outfit is at the cleaners?

[Lady Muck]

Something familiar about you 311... Not to mention I'm usually the only one who calls her ^^^ Rubes... Hmmmm.... Spill! ;c)

Rubes.... Did exactly the same thing as last time. Exactly the same.

lady muck
youre darn right there is lol

[ruby27]

Miss R
I don't want to sound like a portent of doom but, was it that you didn't realise how much you, wanted or is it need AB?
Should you be signing up for some group therapy where we all can overtly express our problems in a cathartic manner, or should you and others be insisting that private counselling is available.
Or have you just got a grip and gone on and done masses of housework?

[Lady Muck]

Alright then 311, I give up, who are you? And what's with the number? At least give me a clue...

I think we should have a group session. With boxing gloves.

tut, what happened this time, Lady Muck? You seem to my inexperienced eye to have been your usual polite self but perhaps you have been rude to someone with a lot of personalities.

Well, yes, I know what you mean Ruby. I spend quite a bit of time here, don't I. About 80% of it is spent answering actual questions rather than chatting (I do quite a bit of research before answering some of them, for my own pleasure) but I am not watching as many old black and white movies as I used to. Though I did see Broadway Melody of 1940 the other night, climaxing with 10 minutes of Begin the Beguine, so that was nice. I should do it more often and spend less time online, I suspect.

[Lady Muck]

Me and my big mouth eh jno?! Although I think when LM eventually gets destroyed too I've got a new name in mind that I heard on this Ian Brown album which I quite like... But then I really will get confused as to who I am. I might turn in to a right whinger and stop liking shoes.

[ruby27]

Hi 311271
I guess you are new here as you are still green. I hope you enjoy your stay here, without sucumbing to the slippery path of addiction.

[Lady Muck]

Flutters eyelashes, stands up straight and pouts

Well how you doing?

Ahem, sorry, shoe and cheese habit to support.

So do I get a clue or what?

[Lady Muck]

If they're knew I'm not only the virgin Mary I also don't drink.

[311271]

[Psychick]

311271 isnt a newbie, just another username.......... and he should definately come with a health warning!! lol

[ruby27]

CD / jno
do you know who 311271 is? If you do it must be because you are aficionados, rather than sleazy addicts.
How come you know and I thought it was someone new, I an assuming that they were bron end of Dec 1971, my no would be 27/10/1066
