Signs of withdrawal
Posted: Sun Apr 23, 2006 8:03 am
The following are signs of suffering from WITP withdrawal while waiting for the new CHS.
1. Growing body hair and fangs and snarling at your dogs and wife.
2. Watching Midway six times in a row without a break.
3. Watching Tora, Tora, Tora and being amazed that there is no combat replay sync problem when you rewind and watch the battle scenes again.
4. You find yourself yelling out loud "Damn the Betties! Full speed ahead!" every ten minutes.
5. Your hands are shaking. Your legs are jittery. Your gut is churning. And you realize that you have checked Spooky's for the sixth time today hoping CHS has been posted.
6. You look up the time difference between your home and Australia to try to determine the time for CHS release. Then you realize it doesn't matter as you are checking Spooky's and Matrix forums every two hours anyway.
7. You bring your laptop with you when you go on a romantic overnighter just so you can check to see if CHS has been released.
8. You hear your wife screaming about you bringing your laptop on your anniversary and think of being attacked by Dive bombers screaming down out of the clouds.
9. Your hands are shaking. Your legs are jittery. Your gut is churning. And you realize that you haven't checked Spooky's in a full hour.
10. You know that you need to get a life, but all you can think of is getting CHS.
11. You start a thread listing your withdrawal signs between checks of the forum to see if CHS has been released.
Excuse me. I have to go check Spooky's
