    When you close your social media account.

    When you have a browser open dedicated to MFP only.

    When you can accurately predict the contents of a thread just by reading the (same old, tired, repetitive) thread title.

    "WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?!!?" -Poster probably hasn't lost weight for 3.5 days and is freaking out. If it's an actual weight loss stall, most likely is either overeating and/or underexercising - but will be shocked and offended if you happen to mention this. They will probably report you and you will get banned for trying to be helpful.

    "ALWAYS SO HUNGRY" -Poster is eating 400-800 calories a day or some other ludicrous amount and/or isn't eating exercise calories back and/or has set some insane goal.

    "HOW DOES MY ROUTINE LOOK" -Poster has concocted a random workout routine that is comprised of bicep curls with milk jugs, crunches, bikram yoga and zumba. And invariably calls it strength training.

    "CAN'T EAT XXXX CALORIES" -Poster got 150lbs overweight but then suddenly can't figure out how to eat 1200 calories a day. I assume most of these posts are humblebragging about their dedication and/or (even worse) are pro-ana people.

    "IS EATING 0-1000 CALORIES A DAY OKAY??!?" -Poster knows it's not okay or they wouldn't be asking. Yet they are guaranteed to be defensive and often offended when everyone answers their plain question in a truthful manner.

    "I FEEL LIKE GIVING UP" -Poster is a thinly veiled attention *kitten*. If you were going to give up, you'd just give up. If you were going to keep kicking *kitten*, you'd keep on kicking *kitten*. If you make a thread like this, you are simply throwing a pity party for yourself. Oh, woe is me.

    "HELP, GAINED <small amount of weight> FROM BINGE" -Poster invariably ate a bunch of carbs and/or salty food and thinks they have magically gained 5lbs of fat overnight. Responses will generally prod the user to weigh in less often, despite the fact that weighing every day would accustom the average person to the daily weight fluctuations that effect everyone.

    "HOW MUCH DOES IT LOOK LIKE I WEIGH" -Poster is a teenage attention *kitten*.

    "EVERYBODY HERE IS SO MEAN" -Poster has been on the internet for two whole weeks and is highly offended by all of the helpful posters that will correct people spouting myths and misinformation. Poster just wants support for their 400 calorie a day intake while performing the master cleanse and the military diet reboot. If poster were to venture outside of MFP to any other part of the internet, they would probably die from shock.

    "BITE/SUCK/LICK/MARRY/BANG/FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS OR MURDER" -Poster is a complete idiot and should be removed from the gene pool immediately.

    You can also accurately predict details about the poster by the contents of their posts. You can discern gender, age, level of experience, intelligence, everything. Just simply looking at someone's join date, number of posts and avatar you already know 90% of what you need to know about them. Hell, you can smell a beachbody "coach" or a Visalus or Herbalife or whatever salesperson, from a mile away.

    lol

    ... you've worn a heart rate monitor to shovel snow or mow the lawn
    ... you've Googled "how to cut a pizza in sixes"
    ... you've checked the exercise database to see if you can add your amorous activities
    ... you've considered wearing a heart rate monitor during said activities
    ... you've taken apart a sandwich so you can weigh the components separately

    lmao I thought I was the only one who checked the database for amorous activities. Of course, I was going to log it in as something else with the calorie burning equivalent. :)

    Just so everyone knows, supposedly "Horseback Riding" burns the same calories for the time period of amorous activities. Okay, obviously I'm guilty of looking this up too!!!!!

    .....when you double check your exercise plans for the day just to have a McDonald's Egg White Delight before getting anywhere near the drive thru.

    .....when you go to the gym at 8 pm at night just because you didn't get your cardio in for the day and you've been up since 5 am.

    Maybe they meant 5ths?

    Some of the frozen pizzas are portioned that way.

    I always just cut it into 6ths and then assume that one of them is calorie free. :drinker:

    And when you can predict what the next person is going to say about you. Lack of creativity bums me out! =/
