MODERATORS
 

Comment with one of your worst dopamine hijackers; something which takes over and hogs your dopamine system, and on New Years Day I'll go through the comments and rank the top ten on how many upvotes they get and edit this post with the results as well as make a new post. Maybe even make a New Years Resolution based on it!

If there are any duplicates only the one with the most upvotes will be counted. Any comments/replies which are chat or reactions will obviously be disregarded from the final count.

Phone notifications.

I pick up my phone to look up that guy who was in the thing with the blonde dude, turn the phone on, and there’s a notification. “Better check it now since I might forget it after I look this up.”

Forty-three minutes later, I finally put the phone down.

A few minutes later I remember I was going to look up that guy who was in the thing with the blonde dude. “Fucking hell.” I turn the phone on, and there’s a notification. “Better check it now since I might forget it after I look this up.”

Eighty-two minutes later, I finally put the phone down.
