Talking Top Signs you May be Addicted to Cbid

Please comment and add to the list. Many of theses I've seen and I've added a few.

Top signs you may be addicated to Cbid:

+You miss your 25th anniversary dinner with your spouse to make sure no one outbids you.

+You list the Perdomo and Padron families as dependents on your tax return--and the IRS allows it.

+You were supposed to take the kids to Toys R Us. Instead, you took them to meet SvenR in PA.

+Your son, recently returned from duty in Iraq, sleeps in his old room with a rifle in his hands because you keep yelling about the "gawddammed snipers".

+When your spouse mentions the DSL service is down, you shrug and keep smoking. When your spouse also points out this means no Cbid, you scream "Noooooooooooooooooooo!" and run to call the computer repair shop.

+You have more plastic tubs than the lady next door, and she sells Tupperware.

+You have 87 pounds of kitty litter. And no cats.

+When your spouse asks how many pieces of fried chicken you want at dinner, you ask "how many lots do you have?".

+You have enough empty cigar boxes to rebuild a city wiped out by hurricanes. You insist that it is crucial to keep every one of them.

+When your wife gives birth to quintuplets, you proudly announce to family and friends that she gave birth to a "factory mazo of five".

+When the bank ststement showes up and its thicker then your mailbox!

+You automatically leave a sign on your door that says, "OK to leave package" whenever you leave your house.

+You live in a doghouse with Rubix^3

Re: Top Signs you May be Addicted to Cbid

I have one to add.. you have been diagnosed with IDS by your therapist....

Inner-Dwertman Syndrome (IDS) is a syndrome most commonly characterized by intrusive, repetitive thoughts resulting in the compulsive purchasing of cigars that the person feels driven to purchase, according to the law of "deals" and "buys" that must be applied rigidly, aimed at increasing stocks of smokes by preventing some dreaded event like S-CHIP or by resolving a more nebulous sense of running out of cigars. However, the likelihood that a deal will be missed, or the causal relationship between the missed deal of buying and the reduction of stocks tends to be imagined or exaggerated. (American Medical Association)

This was named after me.. my last name is Dwertman lol

Re: Top Signs you May be Addicted to Cbid

You are addicted when all of your buys go to me instead of you because its more so the fact that you are winning and not so much that you need the purchase. So if you become addicted please look at my profile for my address. HAHAHAHA J/K.

Re: Top Signs you May be Addicted to Cbid

Sadly I identify with most of the signs. Is there hope?

Re: Top Signs you May be Addicted to Cbid

When you set your alarm clock to go off 5 minutes before an auction ends to make sure you still have a winning bid.

"Go back to sleep honey, ummmmmm, I just need to feed the cat, or mop the bathroom......... or something"

Guilty!

You may be addicted when CI invites you to their shareholder meetings.

Re: Top Signs you May be Addicted to Cbid

I dont think there is a for sure tell tale sign. I just think that when someone is introduced to cbid they are hooked right away.

When your lot watch list is longer than your favorites.

When you have more notifications from Cid in your inbox than spam.

Re: Top Signs you May be Addicted to Cbid

I knew I was addicted when......

My wife asked me "You got another damn package of cigars?"
