You get emails asking where you've been when you've been away from VB for awhile.

:D My real name is Rhianna.

RSJ, Its a reference from the Simpsons. Jebediah Springfield was the founder of their town, and a great great man, not unlilke yourself!

This site is a must see for Simpsons fans:

You DREAM about VBers...

(Here's where Mikie comes in- if I had a dime for the number of times I dreamt of running in to Mikie in a Wholefoods...)

*when you've had a rough day, rather than annoy your family or SO with the details, you go post about it in VB the second you walk in the door. and it helps.

*you're looking through a cookbook and see something nonvegan and think "i bet Kreeli would know a good substitution!"

*whenever your SO walks by and sees you still in VB, they roll their eyes and shake their heads

*your roommate offers to hook up another computer just for you to use, so he doesn't have to cut into your VB time when he wants to play games.

*When your dial-up connection suddenly takes 20 FRICKIN' MINUTES to get you into this thread (www.veggieboards.com to Veggie Patch to thread "You know you're..) and you get frustrated enough to literally punch a hole through your monitor.

*If your dad insists that dial-up is "just a little slow" and "of course it takes a minute or so, the website you're visiting has graphics," and you vie for Road Runner just so you can blitzkreig (sp) VB with posts.

*If because of your slow internet connection, it takes you an hour just to read three threads, but you do it anyway.

Can you guess what has me upset right now? hehe

*If you take 48 hours off of VB because of Thanksgiving break, and your family comments on your "VB withdrawl symptoms".

*If you seriously consider naming VB or member(s) as a beneficiary in your will.

*If when you meet a vegetarian, the first question you ask is "Are you familiar with VeggieBoards? Do you want to be?"

*If your dog does something nutty like refuse to get out of the minivan, you think "Maybe those anti-companion-animals people on VB were right. I shouldn't have to put up with stuff like this from a black lab."

*If you've ever printed off a thread or part of a thread as your grocery shopping list.

*If when your friends on Instant Messenger IM you and don't get a prompt response, they comment, "Well, catcha later. You must be on VB and can't be bothered."

*If your biggest fear in snowstorms, tornados, blizzards, earthquakes, tusanamis, etc is "What if the power goes out and I can't post on VB?"

*If even though you love backpacking, you won't hike the Applachian Trail because you can't afford to carry the weight of even the smallest remote-internet computer with you.

*If you are sure that someone should invent a VB computer game like Home Jeopardy, Home Family Feud, Home Wheel of Fortune, etc.

In reference to one of my earlier "ifs", my mind did actually wander to VB during the Thanksgiving meal prayer. That was probably because I had suggested it. :P

Jedediah... you know what's funny? In the past few days, my bf and I have played several computer games and other games which require entering players' names. He's on a kick in which he wants to be called Jedediah. Not for real, mind you, but it's his epitome of a 'fun name'.

*If you're sick and don't want to do anything, but you somehow manage to find the strength to post on VB.

I feel blaaaaaaaaaaah.

*When your cousin says: "My friend is a vegan, but all he eats are veggiedogs. He's really unhealthy." and you actually say to her: "Get him to come on VB. We'll fix him right up."

*When it's 3am, and you feel like emotional crap, and you can't sleep, but you're posting anyway, cause somehow it just always makes you feel better.

*You ditch your few remaining 3 dimensional friends in lieu of talking to your 2 dimensional ones.

*You consider your buddies here a sort of personal Oracle. (Recipes, facts, personal issues... and Soilman- who is a category unto himself)

*You list Soilman's "Phallus Poem" among your top 10 favourite literary accomplishments of all time.

*You're really really addicted, and a true oldbie, if you can even remember Soilman's Phallus Poem...

"I have been vegan for 30 years, and my phallus astounds all who behold it.

It becomes long, wide, and rigid in a flash,

like the romaine lettuce in my garden does

when evening turns to night swiftly.

And all night long it pulses,

like a lighthouse beacon that,

towering and strong, guides

ships rising and falling on ocean waves, to

the floating dock where they may be secured

throughout the night and throughout the day

that follows. Once to this turgid giant they are lured.

Michael,
You mean a VB-companion page, one that memorializes all of our best VB moments? Great idea!
