Does Anyone Else Spend Hours @ DU Hitting The Refresh Button
Talk about a drug- yikes- This political season I've become a breaking news zombie- constantly looking for good news about us/bad news about them. May need to form a support group.

1. I hear ya
I decided today I spend too many damn hours on this stuff.

Then my addiction immediately said "only 50 some-odd days until the election!! Take a break after that!!!"

And I said "ok."

10. Yeh I do when good news is scarce.
I keep flipping between "Latest" and "General Discussion" and the campaign threads willy nilly, until I get tired of doing it. Just to see if an optimistic thread from TIA or somebody pops up.
