What are the top 10 signs you are addicted to Yahoo! Answers?

10. You wake up at 3 a.m. to go to the bathroom and stop and check if you have any new answer to your questions on the way back to bed.

9. You asked a question yesterday. You check for answers. Then you refresh the page just in case there was a new answer while you were checking.

8. You wish to be able to give people thumbs up or down in real life.

7. In the morning, the first thing you do is check for answers, even before going to the bathroom or having breakfast.

6. You know your best friends in China, Brazil, Australia and Norway better than your neighbour.

5. You raid Zoology just for some fun

4. You go to Garden & Landscape just to "get away from it all for a while"

3. You purposely stay in one category a lot just to get a "Top contributor" badge

2. You stay in one category a lot because you know all the regulars there and want to "hang out" with them

1. You're here now, reading this question and realising a lot of these points apply to you!!

Update:

STAR if this applys to you!

(I wish i could star myself)

    OK, does this mean my life is sad, or does it give me purpose? I'm gonna go with answer #2.

    My initial answer to the questions, sans details, was that you try to make the people in your real life understand just how cool and important this really is. And they don't. And they think you're insane. Which might be true, but that's not really the point, now is it?

    You reach level 6 after almost two years and yet you aren't a top contributor.

    P.S. Some of it does apply to me.

    None of these apply to me. Oh wait.......you can't hide the Top Contribtor badge can you? *lol*

    SO TRUE! I am obsessive compulsive about checking my questions for new answers. I go it probably ten times a day. *lol* I also ask ALL of my questions in this sections just because I know everyone here.

    I have a problem.

    LOL... some of them apply to me, not all.... like 2 [ i know lost of people here in the adolescent section] but then again... another point is that you already know the TROLLS in your section.
