DU is either the Greatest Website ever or Skinner is the devil.......
Because I cannot get off of this thing. I haven't been to bed before noon in about 2 weeks.

I'm frazzled. I barely leave my apartment anymore. I drain enough coffee to kill an elephant. When I go somewhere I think about what what I'm going to post when I get home.

This is either good or bad. I don't know yet.

3. It is addicting, isn't it?
I find myself at home relaxing and immediately running to the computer to see what is going on in the Lounge:crazy:

8. Not likely. 2.5 years and almost 9000 posts later
and I'm still here. There are a lot of people that have been here since the site's inception.

19. I don't see any point posting anywhere else
now that I've found DU. It's kind of a "one-stop shopping" forum for me because I can find everything I want or need in one place. Where else can I find a website where I can post in a forum for where I live (UK), my home state (Georgia), all the politics I need, links to all the breaking news, plus forums relating to my other personal interests? It's all here.

6. It's a good site
But it's bad that you are hooked that bad. But if you'll notice the hour you'll see that I haven't got much room to talk. I still manage to make it to bed before the sun comes up, though.

9. I'm leaning toward Greatest Website, myself.
I actually have never seen a better board than this. EVER.

He must have been on some great stuff when he designed it.

15. Even though I'm a lib and all that...this is the easiest board to
navigate around. (I'm glad it's progressive...) It just make good sense all the way. Why other boards don't adopt the "Skinner" model, I'll never know.

Being here is like being in a small city. Different streets and venues. If I get bored with the GD or the Lounge (never!) I might wander over to the book forum, or the Texas one, or the Nebraska one, or the 9/11 or the politics. It's just wonderful.

(Don't tell Skinner I said this, he'll get a big head.)

14. I sometimes feel the same way.
Although I tend to hang out here only at times of great stress. The build-up to Iraq, the fallout of the 2004 election, etc. It's like free counseling.

16. See my post above yours, but I found this place and man, mostly
it fits me.

It's a really big community. Do we always agree? Nope.

I found it just before the 2004 elections. I kind of lurked and watched and liked what I saw. Now I guess I'm a DU'er...and I like it!
