Like Pengwino you print off the Graemlin codes and pictures and stick them on your monitor to save time when typing replies!
Pengwino says - It was just an idea. Because my computer is being so slow and the Graemlins box takes such along time to load.

when you're here all evening, every evening. Even on a friday night.
when you spend most of the time at juggling club lying on the ground thinking about HoP rather than actually juggling/spinning.

I was lying on the ground cause I'm sick with the flu - and lying down seemed like a good idea whereas juggling or spinning was very tiring.
When you haven't seen or talked to most of your local friends for over a week, but you've visited HoP every single day.

When you rejoice meeting people, so you can put their names in the 'people you've met thread'
When your msn contact list has a group dedicated to 'hoppers'
When that group is the biggest of all your groups
When that group is bigger than all the other groups combined.
When you routinely stay up to/get up at an ungodly hour of the morning just to chat to people from another country.

... when you've been sick as a dog for 3 days and the only thing you can successfully motivate yourself to do, is keep up with spamming the HoP social forums...
speaking of which, I've got *so* much work to do (as I've been telling myself the last couple days), but it's just not doing itself...
