if the benefits of computers only came up in real life... (17)

Lately I have been feeling the urge to use control-f while skimming through textbooks and books looking for answers to questions. I don't actually move my hand like i was typing, but I have the mental urge to want to do it. Am I addicted?

This happens to me too. I think it's not so much a sign of addiction as it is a sign of spending too much time on the computer, which may or may not be because of addiction.

But if you're posting on this board, then yeah, you're probably addicted.

It would be good if they can integrate control-F feature in dead tree books instead of having to use indexes. That would be really good. And control-C and control-V would be very useful too.

One time I tried to ctrl+z while drawing with a pen on paper. True story

I never felt the urge to do CTRL-F/C/V but when I write on paper an make a mistake I mentally do a CTRL-Z sometimes.

Same here. At least once I wanted to use it with a book, but then though, "oh yeah, this isn't a computer"

also, I sometimes consider sticking my tounge out to show I'm being sarcastic, like how you would use ":p" online.

Except, then I notice I would look retarded, and don't :(

I wish I could sing a DQN song, but no one would know what DQN is.

sometimes when writing in class I'll want to use the vi keybindings and people give weird looks because i'll be hitting the top left of paper every three seconds for no apparent reason
