We so could have told them that to begin with and saved a bunch of money they spent on research.

True, true and true.
I know SnitchSeeker is part of my real life... I guess what I mean is that I keep SnitchSeeker to myself when it comes to people I have known personally.

I guess it also depends on the situation. I've been brought up in a family where pretty much everything on the internet is considered dangerous, even if you're careful about what you say and do. My mother isn't really a computer person, and doesn't really understand that the internet can be safe.

My father once used SnitchSeeker against me in an argument that had nothing whatsoever to do with Harry Potter. He was yelling and all.

Basically, they both think I do have an addiction, and I disagree. So I just try keeping it to myself.

You're right to say I can't seperate real life and SS, because I spend hours at a time of my real life on SS.

That makes me crack up. I don't understand how someone could be going through withdrawal if we all wait long periods of time between the new books.

And as for not being able to sleep over a HP book, I think that's a bit ridiculous. Can't you just reread it? Or go to this website?

LMAO I can totaly agree with everyone here, it's totally addictive and wicked!!, and I can't get through the day without even thinking about it all the time lol, I get teased so much by my friends, but it's all in good fun!!

I too, think that if they studied each member of SS, it would be more than 10%. Lol.

I wasn't trying to say about anyone else, just me :) But yeah, fearing technology is not good. It's how it's used that's key, not the device itself. So long as you're educated and sensible, you can't really go wrong.

when you obsessd with harry potter who has the time or money for drugs?

I already knew that HP was addicting. But only 10%? How many people did they interview? When I read DH I locked myself in my room and yelled at anyone who came with in 5 feet of my door.

i cant believe its only 10%

okay, so i haven't even been on this website in along time, but i couldnt' pass this thread up, because it totally relates to me.... how bad is that. while reading DH, i was so absorbed in the book that i barely ate. from lack of food, i actually turned out to be very sick and lost about 7 lbs in 2 days. that may not be bad for some people, but i am very petite to begin with, and it took me TWO MONTHS to gain all of the weight back!! i even went to the doctor to see if anything was seriously wrong, i explained that it happened while reading DH, and he just laughed and said that i was "obviously obsessed".... funny, but then again, dangerous... lol

I'm glad that good research money was spent to determine that. :P

Of course of you ask those here, you may find the total a bit higher. :D

i find it so funny that they have people who dedicate thier lives to reseaching harry potter..... HAHAHAHAHA. When you thnk about it that would make thsoe researchers obbsessed to !

DUH!!!!
GOd .. i thought being addicted to HP was obvious...
my mom wouldnt let me read DH so i used to excuse for bathroom and then read it .. i practically read the whole book in the washroom
buahahah ;)

so true xD it's really addictive

wow that's actually quite scary!! I agree though some people in here and other pages are just addicted to Harry Potter... I belive I am one
