If The Downs is your home page, that is unavoidable.

The Downs has been my homepage since a month after I joined, it is now the homepage of the spare computer at my grandparents house because I'm online so much... But I get e-mail updates just in case I missed something, which I did yesterday.

Even though I was on the computer all day.

(One of) the best thing(s) in being at home at last is getting properly online and to BD. Ah, the bliss.

...when upon rereading the WW game you modded two and a half years ago has you pining for the "good old days" when you had:

1) A job you hated
2) Absolutely no social life
3) An unfulfilled desire to get where you are now

and, most pertinently,

4) Time to moderate WW.

Ah... I had fun in those narrations...

When you read the following line in this post by Mister Underhill:

"I read an interesting analysis of the gap between the U.S. and foreign B.O...."

and immediately think of Volo's revelation:

"None sweat quite in the same way as the French do. "

You know your addicted to the Barrow-Downs when there is only about three subjects you like to talk about and they all have to do with the Barrow-Downs...

I have not been on BD for the past four days, I was getting worried that a new Paper Telephone game had started, I could not guess the rest of the quote on Palantir of Fortune, and the new Downer had come out... I thought that I would miss them all.

At Camp Meeting (Church camp for Seventh Day Adventists) I had a wonderful time telling my seven year old brother about The Phantom and Alien, which he greatly enjoyed and now him and his friend can quote about three of them! Thanks to my most horrible memory!

But what really creeped me out is there was this kid there that was maybe twelve and he looked an awful lot like Hookbill... I know that Hookbill is not twelve, and not younger than I either, but it scared me none the less...

I knew he was controlling my mind, bu I didn't know he was stalking me too!

Hehe, and all this while I was trying to explain to my friend what the Downs is, and complaining that I might not get home in time to read the Downer on Sunday...
