Okay guys, I need help. I just realized that I have a problem.

Yes kids that's right, I have an addiction of the worst kind. I am totally addicted to tpunk!!!!!! Seriously do they make medication for this?? I am always on this site, no matter where I am work, home, it doesn't matter!!!!!

Anyways I figure that my first step towards recovery is admitting that I have a problem.

Feel free to use this thread as a place to talk about your similar problems...I won't judge!

ok, brit, i gotta say you are a nerd!! But i love ya, and i know what you mean... i just joined today and have posted like 5 times!! No need to find a solution!!

TPunks rocks and there is no need to stop. Plus we need to find out as much as we can about our trip before we go!!

What would be a bad addiction...other than the obvious that actually hurt you, but i mean something like...addicted to wearing your underwear on the outside, hopefully no one here does that ritually

sounds like you two know eachother... share the connection

furthermore there is no help. no rehab. no actual addiction.

You just found a place to belong. A place where people think outside of the box. And that my friends is something to be proud of. That you found us.

Welcome to Tpunk. May your time with us be uplifting and splendifirous!

Ha, at least you're only addicted to one messageboard.

I am addicted to both travelpunk and interference, a U2 messageboard.

Oh the hours of my life that could be used for more productive things......

Don't listen to him ^ he has no idea what he is talking about...just ask anyone...Seriously though, we are transmitting mind controling agents through your computer screen...but don't worry its good for you, and the worst that could happen is that you will start seeing this guy ---> following you from time to time.

Now repeat after me..."I will post on Tpunk daily, I will post on Tpunk daily..."

brit and i work together in this lovely state called colorado, and at first she hated me and wanted to beat me up but then realized that i rock, so then we became friends and now we are going to travel the world together!!

p.s. she told me that she wears her underwear on the outside when shes at home!! i feel sorry for her roomies!

love ya brit...(incase you don't know...most of this is a lie, we really do work together and are going on our backpacking trip this summer together, but other than that, its pretty much not true!) I just wanted to get brit all riled up!

<----brit when she's mad (could i get her any more mad at me??)

The only prescription is more cowbell...

Seriously, though, I have found a cure. It's, umm, travel. You see, when I'm off somewhere far away from my computer and can't find an internet connection, I can't get on TPunk and I can't post and read everyone else's postings, yet I don't go nuts! It works!!!

Addicted is such a strong word.


I prefer unintentionally and unmovingly attatched.


Hmmmm, maybe I should just give in and get that TPunk tat with this dude .....or maybe this dude
