Are you an NAM addict?

After just responding to perhaps one of the most mundane threads on here I realized that I am addicted to NAM......So lets define what an addict is....and perhaps start a NAM "club"

You are an NAM addict if:

1. you compulsively check the site at least once per hour that you are sitting in front of a computer

2. You have ever responded to a thread with "do a search"

add your own

oh .....I am NAMAC #1 (North American Motoring Adicts Club)

3: you do a search for someone else and post the results just because there aren't any other new messages at the moment.

I am a NAM Addict!

What else is there to do when you are waiting for your MINI to be built?

I tried:
  • Building a Radio Conrol MINI
  • Wearing a MINI baseball cap
  • Collecting window stickers for the MINI
  • Collecting MINI pictures
  • MINI porn (see my Galery)
Nothing gives the fix like NAM. Though I expect that driving my MINI will be better than chatting on NAM.

I thought that was normal behavior, Perhaps I should see a therapist?

I was with NAMers all weekend while at the dragon to come home at 1-2am and hit the NAM forums and give info about what happened that day then back to the dragon with the NAMers in real life. Try repeating that for 3 days...

also you dont realize where 3rd, and 4th gears went until you hit 5th gear
