Post Punk Kitchen Forum

1. You spend more time on the PPK while at work than you actually spend on work.
2. You actually start saying "forking", "shiitake" and "crasshole" in real life.
3. You refer to PPK members by their PPK names when talking about something someone posted. For example, I had a conversation with a friend the other day about a recipe I saw that someone had posted. Instead of just saying I saw the recipe online, on the ppk, or wherever, I actually say "(insert random ppker here) posted it" as if I know them in real life or expect the person I am talking to to know what/who the hell I am talking about
4. The PPK is your first point of reference for all things vegan. And the first place you go to ask questions.
5. The PPK offers better support than any other person, website or an actual support group.
6. The PPK is the first bookmark in your phone's web browser.
7. The PPK is the only website where you are excited and willing to meet random internet people in real life. We are vegan, we can't be serial killers, right?

I'm sure there are tons more and it's not a bad thing, I'd be lost without you, my dear PPK!

Every time I see the word "fee" in anything ever I have a brief little moment of thinking "ooh me"
And Fee isn't my real life name or anything close to it.

Oh my gosh. They are ALL true for me! I think I need a PPK patch.

I do talk about PPK people as of others know who they are. I actually refer to Dumbledore's Army as Dumbledore's Vegan Army to the bewilderment of all my friends. If I am not sure if something is vegan, I value PPK's opinion more than any other website or resource. My friend's eyes start to glaze over if I even mention the PPK.

Even now, I am supposed to be working, and look at what I am doing.

If this is wrong, I don't want to be right.

seriously

I know! I should already be out of the office but I'm still here, not working of course, PPKing!

I seriously need to stop PPKing when I should be studying :S.

I need to stop working when I should be PPKing.

(No, let's be honest. That never happens.)

How about when you start having ppk dreams?

or when I'm, you know, in class...like right now...

and when I get annoyed that class has ended because I'm not finished reading a thread/typing my post yet, and I have to close my computer and leave.

One of my old housemates used to say "Hi vegans!" every time she saw me on the computer, cos chances were, I'd be PPK-ing. She insisted that everyone on the PPK lived inside my computer and talked to me (it was a running joke, she wasn't as weird as I'm making her sound).

PPKers have definitely made appearances in my dreams before. But so have tv characters. At least you guys are real?

Guilty!

Yeah, this.
Although, in my defense, there is not much else for me to do.

Ha ha. ALL the time!

Kind of like that, but when I see the words "shiitake" or "stroganoff" written anywhere besides the PPK, I still automatically substitute the swear word as I read it. Sometimes hilarity ensues.

Hahaha I love everyone's responses! We may be addicts but at least we are all in it together!

I like to combine PPK with the Sopranos. As in: "Fork that, T"

Whenever I see "stroganoff" in a cookbook or menu, my first reaction is, "they can't call it that, that's dirty!"

well i kind of hate not having any vegan friends in my 3D life.

Wait, when ppkers appear in your dreams, are they ppkers you've met in real life? And especially if not, they look like their avatars? I've only had dreams in which I was ppking, which was weird enough. Not that I'm trying to call your dreams weirder than mine, but I think I have anyway. Sorry.

Guilty of all of the above, and also, thank god I don't have a job that requires me to be without a computer.
Yes, and when I see other PPKers names, I think of them, too.

Yes to everything. In the past year, I haven't actually done more than 20 minutes of work while at work.

I equate a rabid seal with being joyful.

Only ppkers have seen pics of my new kitty, whereas none of my 3D friends have, unless you count my ppk friend that is also a 3D friend? My SO hasn't even seen pics of new kitty yet.
Definitely addicted.
