You know you've been using a computer too much when...

Recommended Posts

... When you're reading your notes in a notebook, with your hand on a mouse, and you're confused as to why the text isn't scrolling upwards when you're twiddling with the mousewheel.

 

... When you tell your housemate to 'minimise' the blinds to let the sunlight in...

 

Been an odd day.

I keep wishing that life had a spell-checker when I do written assignments.

Too lazy too look trough dictionaries.

When natural light gives you a headache

 

Geeky white skin.... I've yet to meet anyone who can beat mine - despite having ludicrous amounts of sunbeds (for medical therapy not cosmetic) my skin just burns and goes red, then dies. b00.

 

My mum even made a joke about it :(

 

When you find yourself writing work emails/anything electronic and putting a LOL or ^_^

When you introduce yourself with your online name.

 

I did that when I bumped into Twozzock yeeeears ago. Haha.

 

You know you've been using a computer too much when...

 

...you're deep in conversation with a friend outdoors, and you want to recall a certain piece of information. "I'm gonna google that!...oh wait..."

I do that regularly on my phone, it has become an essential part of my life.

 

As for my contribution:

 

... when people seek you out on Facebook or MSN rather than call you on the phone. It happens to me all the time, but that's okay as I hate talking on the phone.
