OT-What level of addiction to Mgoblog do you have?
So there are a lot of threads basically polling the Mgocommunity on various topics. Since there is practically nothing exciting going on right now in sports (besides World Cup i suppose), I want to ask a simple question for you due to the fact I visit this site more than any other.
How often in a day do you visit this site? Once in the morning? The afternoon? Anytime you are at a computer? Every couple hours? Every ten minutes?
I would say when I am slow at work I might check in every 20 minutes or so to check for interesting updates on the board or Unverified Voracity (don't tell my boss). On average once every hour or two though. The reason being is that stuff changes on here, at least on the board, so frequently that there are many interesting things to read to pass the time. Just curious as to the levels of addiction to this site that you may have.
I choose to view this as a thirst for knowledge, not an obsession.
People always ask me about Michigan athletics at work because I am the "expert." Little do they know I get all of my knowledge from MgoBlog. I'm a joke : /(
/ yea that's a mustached frowny face, bitch.
Would be so proud
posting this from the bathroom on my phone... yes i have a problem and i don't care...
and clicked about every ten minutes or so.
In google chrome when you bookmark something it goes onto the toolbar lol, it's dead center on mine
this is my MGoHomepage
I swear this will happen if one more person labels a topic OT that is has the word "mgoblog" in it. How is it OT when THE WHOLE DISCUSSION IS ABOUT THE BLOG ITSELF
HOWEVEA...with all that being said I love the topic and find myself checking every half-hour while I study for boards.
Ok here's the thing. I agonized over wether I should put OT or not (thats right, agonized, b/c I want to do everything right here to avoid negbangs, and I love MGoBlog with all my heart). I decided that while it is about the blog itself, it is OT, based on what the blog represents. This is a blog about Michigan sports. It is not a blog about discussions involving the blog as a whole. Therefore I went OT. 1000 apologies for offending anybody.
no negbangs coming from me regardless if its OT or not, like I said, I love the topic

Wait, what?
If given the choice to give up MGoBlog entirely, or floss with merkin - I would absolutely floss with merkin.
- Bob Saget/MGoBlog addict: Marijuana is not a drug. I used to suck d**k for +1s.
- Rehab patient: I seen him [do it]!
- Bob Saget/MGoBlog addict: Now that's an addiction, man. You ever suck some d**k for +1?
- Thurgood: No, I can't say I have.
- Bob Saget/Cocaine addict: I didn't think so.
- Rehab patient: Boo this man!
The first time I heard that, I laughed so hard my stomach hurt. I don't know what was funnier though; Saget and Dave's (from the Real World) lines, or the look on my mom's face. She just kept saying "No, not Danny Tanner!"
I hate it when Mgoblog wins out. My girl coming up from the cesspool south of our border, and I was told ,"No Mgoblog under any circustances!"
I hope nothing breaks out this weekend...
Mgoblog.. making people inefficient at work since December 2004.
I only look at this site when my multi-million dollar porn empire starts stressing me out. Damn, you guys are nerds.
*Sighs, slowly closes laptop and weeps*
Usually it's not bad...but do you ever get those cravings...? Like, I wonder what's going on on MGoBlog tonight....hmmmm...wonder if I missed any good posts....what are they saying about this game/event/heck, even the weather....
I think I have a problem.
Edit: I'm postponing dinner so I could see what everyone was saying about LLP.
I'm on it like every 15 minutes. I hope the boss man never figures out why I am breaking sports news to him befoer ESPN even gets wind of it.
I don't consider myself addicted but my eyes swelled up a little and I got a little overwhelmed when TomVH said he was going to be out of town for a week.
Can we get one of those plane trackers going to see when he will be back??
no, that's not it at all.
It's not addicting or habit forming, not really. I mean, I wouldn't consider it necessary or important or anything like that, at all.
Would I miss it? Would I yearn to visit the site over and over at odd, random times during any 24 hr. period? Lets get real. If it gets to the point where I hear about any story, Michigan-related or not, and I am instantly curious about what the board has to say about it, maybe then it could be called a hobby. Like a strong interest or serious hobby, maybe.
But not an addiction.
So, no - It's not about addiction.
It's... It's not, really. Sure it takes some time, and there are some efforts to make certain I always have access and all but that is perfectly normal. Would I be able to have more "functioning" time during the day and in the evening and at night? Perhaps, but you can say that about a lot of things.
I'm just here for the upvotes.
for the futbol talk.
Can't stop.
Help plz.
A+ thread.....would read again.
Haven't post in a while, but always check my mgoblog. Last post
was a pic of Megan Fox for a fellow Mgoblogger. He was right on
a great recruit pick.
Just one more MgoBong hit and then I gotta go.
I saw this thread yesterday but actually had to be productive at work, so I didn't respond at the time (my addiction is light, it's only like one refresh per day hour minute.
Then last night, I had a dream about MGoBlog where Brian called me out for being a bad commenter (which, touché). My addiction is so much worse than I thought...
