A friend and I made up this list last night, as we pulled an
all/late-nighter in the computer lab (I was here from 4:30 pm.
until 3 am. and she was here from 4:30 pm. until 5 am.)...
YOU KNOW YOU HAVE NO LIFE WHEN:
1)Your best friend is the VAX/a terminal.
2)You enjoy spending all day in the computer lab.
3)You become a Computer and Information Sciences major. :^)
4)You draw computer smiley faces---when not on the computer.
5)You wear green and purple socks to school---and think they match.
6)You sing goofy songs in the lab.
7)You're in the lab even during vacations.
8)You name your computer/favorite terminal.
9)You think of lists like this one.
10)You play Solitaire (on Windows) for hours.
11)You start quoting movies.
12)You miss your professors.
13)You rely on Public Safety/Bagelry for company.
(for non-madstoPpers, insert late-night food place)
14)You're gone all day---and nobody misses you!
15)You're happy the programs compiles/works.
16)You pull all-nighters for no reason.
17)You go to the lab when you can't sleep (right, Marc? :^) ).
18)You give your program cute and/or obscene names.
19)You quote kids' shows.
20)You quote commercials (especially stupid ones).
And...
21)MOO!!!!!!!!
The original version of this list is on the blackboard in the
DOS Classroom in Dunn Hall (rm. 358), if anyone in the madstoP
area wants to see it.
ever your servant,
Mom
