Just for fun, what are some clues that you've been visiting Head-fi for too many months?

I'll start things off...

#1- You remember when the first portable rig thread started, when people proudly showed off their e2cs, 3G iPods, and Zen NXs...
#2- You remember when Head-fi was slow to jump on the mp3 player bandwagon at all
#3- You remember the "controversy" over bolded screen names
#4- You remember the last 10 FOTMs
#5- You wonder what happened to so-and-so who posted 2 years ago...

You lock yourself in the bathroom and secretly post on Head-fi

[size=xx-small]The Conversation

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FEXGF: Who are you chatting with?

Me: I'm not chatting, I'm posting on head-fi.

FEXGF: Is that that online group of geeks?

Me: No, they are not geeks, they are normal people.

FEXGF: You're a geek.

Me: Ok, I'm a geek; may I continue posting please?

FEXGF: You see, you're so busy with that computer of yours that you're going to miss another opportunity to have sex.

Me: It's ok to have sex now?

FEXGF: Oh forget it, you missed your chance.

Me: Ok, but how do I know when the sex is on again?

FEXGF: I shouldn't have to tell you. You should know automatically.

Me: Ok, I'll know automatically the next time. I promise.

FEXGF: You lie.

Me: Let me just finish this one post and we'll go upstairs, ok?

FEXGF: What are you doing in there; you're in there for a half hour.

Me: I just got in here.

FEXGF: You know we only have one bathroom; that's very inconsiderate.

Me: But I'm the only one that cleans it.

FEXGF: Well, just hurry up, I have to go.

Me: It's taking longer than I thought and I'm just reading some posts. I'll be quick.

FEXGF: You're never quick. You'd think you have an online girlfriend.

Me: I don't - I have you.

FEXGF: The cat wants to come in - he's scratching the door let him in.

Me: If I let him in, are you going to try to come in too?

FEXGF: No, you have 5 more minutes. Let the cat in. The door is getting all scratched.

Me: Ok.

FEXGF: I don't hear anything in there.

Me: We're just finishing up.

FEXGF: What is the cat doing?

Me: He's also posting on head-fi.

FEXGF: You wish. Wouldn't that be convenient. He can take over for you when you travel.

Me: Good idea. I think I like that; It'll get my post count up.

FEXGF: Your what?

Me: Uh nothing. Ok, I'm finishing up let me let the cat out.

FEXGF: Hey he's all wet - what did you do to him?

Me: Nothing, he likes the sink, so I turned the water on.

FEXGF: Ewwww now go dry him off.

Me: Ok, let me just put the laptop down.

FEXGF: Gimme that. I want to see what you're talking about.

Me: Ok.

FEXGF: This is weird. What kind of parents put headphones on their kids?

Me: Intelligent ones. Kids like good music.

FEXGF: No they don't; they just can't complain. You people are just weird.

Me: I know, but I like weird people.

FEXGF: Are you calling me weird?

Me: Ok, you're right. We are all weird. It's a conspiracy. We're all talking about you. Now that that's out in the open can we go to bed?

FEXGF: Yes, but don't bring the cat upstairs. He's wet.

You remember when Jude used to post all the time (yes, he did!)

You remember when they were crying out for members now they have too many

You remember when there were only a handful of headamps now there are hundreds

You remember when farting threads were allowed
