I'm falling victim to a CC addiction and a stagnating forum

<p>This last week or so I've become so heavily dependent on CC that I often find myself reloading the page every few second to see if there's a new, interesting thread or any new responses to my posts. But because I live in England, I'm rarely online (or even awake) when CC really "heats up." And there are never enough new or updated threads to keep me satisfied...</p>

<p>Anyone else feel the same way? We should start a support group! CC addicts anonymous ;-)</p>

<p>high five! AA!</p>

<p>LOL! I'm in the same boat !</p>

<p>I wish people posted as actively here as they do on the college forums... unfortunately, though, there are inevitably fewer prep schoolers than there are college seekers :-(</p>

<p>@ "refreshing page every few seconds"
ahaha, and here i was, thinking i was the only one who did that. & when there's a really interesting thread that i reaaally want posts on, i refresh like crazy. bahaha, i guess boarding school forums do that to you? </p>

<p>eek! you're from england? do you happen to know a Thomas Daley? omigosh, i love him. haha, i'd kill to live in england (although perhaps not for the boarding school application, being international is as hard as it is!)</p>

<p>1-800-CGS-HEAD. 1-800-ILY-HEAD? couldn't fit S into the last one..</p>

<p>lol tomthecat, i love refreshing the page too. here here AA!! :)</p>

<p>i also love tom daley</p>

<p>whos tom dayley?</p>

<p>Haha, I love it when I tell people I'm British and they ask me if I know someone who lives there. I often have to remind them that in surface area the UK is roughly the same size as Texas and has a higher population ;-)</p>

<p>And I have to say I don't get those phone number-looking things at the bottom of your post, although that could easily be because it's past 4 am over here, lol. See? CC pushed me to this, staying online until American posters are active!!! See what you're doing to me, CC? Curse you and your fantastically engaging forums!</p>

<p>Lolol, they're terribly uncreative helpline numbers. 1-800 followed by 7 numbers (or letters)!</p>

<p>Heehee: That must get annoying after a while, but I can't take any chances here! Haha, yeah, I'm a hardcxre fan of Tommiekins, tyvm. :)
4 AM?! HAHA LOL. Well, it IS New's Years..</p>

<p>@ Senay:
Just the hottest diver ever!
He competed at the Beijing Olympics.
He was 2nd in Junior Worlds (he lost by two points, 500 something to 500 something.. ergh)
& HE'S 14. HEHE. Oh, and he's british, which gives him that ADORABLE accent. eep! (Sorry, I'm obsessed. this post probably isn't for the weak @ heart..)</p>

<p>as a person that lived in england (stratford area, high street, i miss the rose parks that england has) the only celebrities i remember are the Spice Girls, David Beckham, and the people from EastEnders and Emmerdale or Emerald?</p>

<p>yea i get wat u mean tomthecat, this idiot asked me if I knew Bob Marlin from Seattle. I was like, w-t-f?, i live in a state that has millions of people, that should answer your question if I know Bob Marlin</p>

<p>o0o0 just looked him up. hot bod...dont know about the face though</p>

<p>:O
WHA?
i love the face. the body's just a plus.
besides, way-too-contoured-abs scare me. alot. D: they're like .. within comparison of silicone implants or something. scaaary!</p>

<p>haha, okay, this went from CC addictions to breast implants. hmmm (mainly my fault, ahah)
yeah, anyways
is there actually a specific time where CC "heats up"? it seems to be at around 4/5 pacific time which is 7/8 eastern.. i'm never home at that time, so when i get back there are like, 20 updated threads. sort of. heehee.
BY THE WAY TOM'S FACE IS HEAVEN TYVM (tom daley. not tom the cat tom, because i've never seen tom the cat's face ~)</p>

<p>lol now I know who you're talking about. What we Brits say, though, is that he's rubbish and a bit of a twat. He came something like 20th overall and he and his partner had a punch up over some silly disagreement while they were still in the public eye. Despite his age, we Brits think he was sort of a joke.</p>

<p>Haha, the Spice Girls and Emmerdale, the two worst excuses for British entertainment... they are rather hilarious to watch though</p>

<p>7TH OVERALL.
TT_TT
basically nobody in Canada knows him so they're like, 'what? that sounds like an old realtor', haha. at least they can't really criticize him. :P
what's a twat? omigosh, british words are so cute-looking. (sorry, i'm sort of.. high on sugar, again. like always)
is emmerdale some sort of sleazy soap opera? looks sort of like it. hmm. (via google)</p>

<p>edit: DON'T TELL ME WHAT TWAT MEANS. LOL. i looked it up on wiki. it's always fun reading "scientific" explanations of vulgar words, haha!</p>

<p>id have to disagree about tom's face. just zoomed in on his face and i definitely cringed</p>

<p>I love Emmerdale and EastEnders. Spice Girls-so sad that they broke up, they were my first CD :( Emmerdale rocks. it's been around for ages.</p>

<p>i still say rubbish in America and people are, like, what?</p>

<p>Haha, DiveAlive, I probably shouldn't explain on this thread. I would tell you to google it but you'd probably just end up with a bunch of British porn websites. If you do decide to google, google carefully =P</p>

<p>twat is fool or idiot</p>

<p>That's its polite definition. Literally it's a part of the female anatomy.</p>

<p>I know, Senay! I love using British terminology in America because sometimes people just kind of go along with it acting as if they understand what I'm saying, but you can still see a little confusion in their eyes. There are a lot of British things you can say to Americans that they won't understand whereas most American slang terms are understood in Britain due to America's monopoly on media and general communications</p>
