WSO: More addicting than Facebook?

For me, WSO has gotten even more addictive than facebook. I generally check it whenever I get on my computer and am definitely on it before FB. I have gotten tired of FB lately because WSO provides the two things I often look for when on the internet: procrastination and information.

What about you other monkeys? Do you get on WSO more than FB?

 

I wrote a really long essay about how this site is completely toxic but I can't stop coming here, and then decided it was too whiny to post. Sufficient to say that it was all true, yet here I am on Sunday morning.

 

FB I just leave open all the time in case someone IMs me or some shit. Not actively on it for any length throughout the day.

WSO however, I always find myself reading some thread, generally rotating between the Monkeying Around, Corporate Corral, The Other Road, Business Attire, Public Resume Review, and Get a Job sections. Basically refreshing those multiple times every time I'm on my computer. So yes, definitely finding WSO more addictive than FB these days. But I think its starting to drain me. I'm too young to be constantly obsessing on my future career that hasnt started.

 

Yes. WSO and the NFL subreddit are where I spend a lot of my internet time. FB has been pretty boring for a long time now, I honestly don't give a shit about a vast majority of the stuff people on my "friends" list post.

Also, the humor on WSO is much more my cup of tea.
