Those of you who recall YKYLTTMW will also recall how I said I was fond of hilarious lists . . . well, this time, I'm organizing a list for a friend of mine. Anyways, I was hoping you guys could help me out.
Here's the catch: She's not a Mooter. So, comments about Entmoot are welcome, but won't be included in the list she ends up reading. K? I'll cite you all for your help in a footnote at the bottom.

On that note, here goes:

You Know Your Written Social Life Is Drooping When . . .

~You forget your own address, seeing as nobody cares what it is.
~Your favorite saying, which you dispense at any chance you get, is "An empty inbox with company isn't empty anymore."
~You follow the above statement with your email.
~Nobody takes the hint.
~When you write to people and they wonder who sent them the letter they're reading
~You write to yourself instead (actually, you don't have to be a nobody to do that, but . . .)
~You stoop to writing lists like this

(Note: Can anybody see why I need help w/ this? :D)

~You can't remember the traditional way to begin a letter.
~The only people who know you exist are those !@#$%^&*! junk mailers.
~Your teachers have quit making comments on your written work at school.
~ Somebody put white-out over your address in the phone book, directory, and school handbook.

~You don't pay bills, because the city has yet to notice that you are a tax-paying citizen.
~You begin all letters and emails with "Write back A.S.A.P."
~Everyone cuts in front of you in line, and when you ask them why, they look blankly at you and then go back to whatever they were doing

~When there are more people who know you by a fake/pen name than there are who know your real name.

~When you go to visit a friend and find they no longer live there.

~When you find you would rather stay in and read/[insert other random activity] than go out with your friends...who are they?

~When your parents have a rule that you can't be grounded from dance class, dances, tv, the phone, the computer, or the movies, etc... because they don't want to infringe on your non-existant social life (yep, that's a rule in my house[s] for me)
~When you IM random people whose screennames that you found in other peoples info. (no, I haven't done that... yet)
~When you send letters to yourself just so that you have mail


I'm sure that I'll think of more... all I have to do is think of my life.:D

You know your social life is drooping when..

You have to look up the term Social in the dictionary.

You constantly make up lines to movies thinking they "should have been there in the first place"

You begin to refer to characters in books and movies like they are real people (or by their first name).
You expect people to know who you are talking about.

You feel the need to make everything you say rythme.

You instantly know when someone spells a word wrong and have an irrepressible need to correct it. (me...do that...NOOO)

You know what irrepressible means, its definition, and synonyms.

I, Do not, under any circumstances fall under any of these categories :cool:

~A teacher has never called you by name in your life. Every time they see you, its like thats the first time they've ever seen you, and then they ask if your name is on the seating chart
~Your name, of course, is not on the seating chart, becasue everytime they make those stupid things you are mysteriously overlooked

1. Your dog rather rub up against the wall than have you pet it.

2. All the numbers in your little black book start with "1-900."

3. Due to excessive hazing and ridicule, you decided to drop out of the Origami Club.

4. You were almost involved in a threesome, but your left hand fell asleep.

5. Fantasizing out loud before falling asleep is your idea of "pillow talk."

6. Your personal ad reads: "Seeking Anybody."

7. Next to your name in the phone directory, the phone number is replaced with the phrase "Who cares?"

8. You look forward to the dinner time calls from telemarketers.

9. The last time you were invited to a party, you were grooving to the lyric, "Put your right foot in, take your right foot out."

10. You spent last summer following around the 2000 Bible Belt Trekkie Convention Tour.

You try to use a pencil to brush your teeth because you've forgotten its real purpose.

You got an AOL CD in the mail and built a shrine around it in gratitude.

When someone says 'mail' you think in terms of gender.

~When your family/friends spell your name wrong
~When YOU spell your name wrong
~When the bus driver doesn't stop at your house
~When you have a tea party with your stuffed animals cause your friends are "busy"

* You lost your daily planner a month ago but never noticed; you never needed to use it.

* Ever since you got a separate phone line, you have your mom or little brother call you. No one else does, but you actually find the sound of the ring more interesting than your past week.

Ok i think i must come back here later and give my social life a chance to droop down again. I am actually pretty busy now.

when you get in trouble for talking because you are so lonely and you are made to face the wall, you start talking to the wall. (actually, I really know someone who did that. they also started singing to the wall.)

Ahem! Look, just because you ppl can't see the hobbit that always stands over there, DOESN'T mean he doesn't exist!

And have you ever tried having a conversation with the character in a movie?

All right, my ideas...

`You start acting like me. ("No precious, they musn't take pretty ring from us. Just because it is cheap Precious, just because we gots it off a bookmark doesn't mean they should take it from us. It was our Birthday Present..." *you see FB wearing straight jacket with neaklace around neak and cheap Ring on it, biting anyone nearby*)

`You walk up to the person you had this LONG debate about who's cuter(Legolas/Aragorn), and they glare at you, and timidly back away, wondering who you are.

`You write to yourself, just to see wether or not you will reply

`You write to WETA workshops, with some good complements and questions, and they never reply.:( :mad:

ok, I know they stink, but you can't say I didn't try!
