I get addicted to boards. For a few years it was a kayak building board. There was a year of Fark in there. That was a wasted year. I can't believe the level of discussion at Fark and that I participated in it. I also spend a lot of time lurking at the Fine Homebuilding site. I post occasionaly there and even had two of my posts chosen to print in the paper edition of Fine Homebuilding Magazine. There's a lot to learn there, but the discussions about non-building topics are really pretty bad.
The Cellar is a nice fit though. There's a decent amount of diversity here. It's casual, but there is a level of maturity and respect not present on other general topic boards.
My wife knows of my habit of visiting boards. Mostly I do it from work, but occasionally I'll spend some time from home. She doesn't like me spending too much time on the computer. So, no. She doesn't get it.
