For many, IRC gives an outlet where they can verify that they're not the only one lagging, thereby setting their mind at ease a bit. For those of the *cough* AOL sort, there's no IRC right now. Sure, to have the powers of a yogi would be nice. You'd sit, relax, meditate and ponder the wonders that are home-baked goodness. If you're one of the caffeine priests of anti-sleep, however, you go nuts... I've been on both sides of the lag-->altar-sittin logs so I can empathize. Hmm, I think we need a Paranoia Forum. They're out to get me - Schizo 15:22:05 12/07/99 (7) Just for the people that need the affirmation or validation.
IMMS, don't watch right now - Narev 17:23:11 12/07/99 (0)
IMMS, look the other way - Narev 18:12:48 12/07/99 (0)
etc
etc
(Heh, sorry Narev, couldn't resist)
