Let's not allow a forum addiction to trigger personal comments directed at any other member. We don't want to have to open an HTLAL Rehab Unit!
Yes, I'm an addict, too, I suppose, but I like to think of my participation here as therapeutic. 4 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Thankfully, it doesn't take long to realize that HTAL stands for How To Assassinate Languages. I kid (only slightly). R. == 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Oh, but we are far more subtle than that! Did you know that an anagram of How To Learn Any Language is: A Language Hater Only Now? Only an true addict would put the forum name into an anagram generator. But this result is not true! We LOVE languages . . . a little too much, sometimes. 4 persons have voted this message useful | |||

You mean this forum is like what they say about psychologists, a disease that presents itself as the cure? Edited by mrwarper on 21 December 2011 at 12:28am 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

You know you're addicted to this forum (AND a language nerd) when you're supposed to be
packing to spend a few days with your relatives in Wales, but you're on here and answering "important" things - as I have just told my mother a few times. You know you're supposed to be packing, and there's only my language materials left ("you know you'll be lost without those, get packing!") but you just can't tear yourself away from the computer. The likelihood is that I'll throw my language materials into my bag as I'm running out the door. I do this every time I go to Wales. And anywhere else for that matter. I never learn.
