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)

Ok, it might have been a little longer than a week.

You know you're a NAM addict if:

:smile: You can't fall asleep at night unless you've checked all 5 screens of the day's new posts.

:smile: You know Lot15's "other" name.

:smile: You know who Boo, Malibu Stacie, Poco, Jerk (RIP ), and Scooter (RIP ) belong to... or vice versa.

:smile: You're starting to think that the things that stop the car really are "breaks."

:smile: You believe that MINIClo is a modern incarnation of the Delphi Oracle.

As you read this thread, you nodded at most of the signs and/or laughed out loud.

oh and another thing that makes me laugh (i love it when this happens)-
when people greet me as 'your highness' or something else referring to my sn

wow. i am an addict.
(but what else can I do... my 14.Oct build MINI is STILL sitting in the port... oh and I kinda like being and addict.)

I'm An Addict!

i feel like an addict because i haven't had access to internet for several days and i feel like i've had withdrawal symptoms from not being able to see what's going on here - but it's kinda like watching "soaps" you quickly catch up!

No I'm not. The 12 step program I took did not work, so that proves it

You still have "NAM" bookmarked as MINI Cooper Online, and you derive satisfaction from this every time you click on it. (Thanks IanF!)

*because you've mapquested it, then posted "wow, there really is a Bumpass."

-You make a page dedicated to nothing but posts NAMers have written making fun of where you live.

-Your office is full of framed pictures of NAMers and their mini's

-you had a NAM shirt before you ever knew what NAM was (thanks Deb! )
