Attention Span

[Vagrant]

Wanna know your max attention span in minutes? Just double your age...

It's usually true.

[Liokae]

Excepting, of course, those of us with ADHD.

[jason]

24 minutes hm.. not true i can listen for 2 hours 38 min ...... i was wearing a watch

[Vagrant]

If you were measuring, then you weren't paying attention. lol, the attention span is if you are actually listening and digesting the info..

[Icetetter]

ok, I can listen to something very interesting for about half an hour

[Hand of the Castle]

I can listen forever... seriously... unless I sleep late of course, but if I'm pumped up I can listen all day long...

[jason]

Vag what i mean was i knew what time it was b4 the day and then after.............

[kevinok]

So what was this topic about again

[Vagrant]

You're attention span... read the title

[Diamond187]

I think Kevin was making a joke

that formula can't work when you start to get old, I'm pretty sure an 80yr old guy can't pay attention for almost 3 hours straight.

[kevinok]

Yes Vag I was making a joke.

[Vagrant]

I think Kevin was making a joke

that formula can't work when you start to get old, I'm pretty sure an 80yr old guy can't pay attention for almost 3 hours straight.

Well yeah, because he'll be asleep by then.

[kevinok]

That was sort of mean Vag.

[Vagrant]

So? It's true.

[kevinok]

Well the truth hurts.

[Vagrant]

*ouch

What?

[Hypersolidsnake]

Heh, anyways, I didn't know that attention span was measured in minutes... I can't really stay fosucced on homework, or reading a really long thread...

[Diamond187]

yeah, neither can... oh look, birdies
*departs to go chase the birds*

[Kerry]

lol! Right... I am the biggest procrastinator. Actually no im not, because in order to procrastinate you have to do it at the last moment. I do not do my home work at all. Wait, shouldn't i be in school right now. Hm.. Oh look birdies! *chases birdies.*

[Namhet]

All i read was the part about the birdies.

*chases birdies*

[Kerry]

lol, That was a good one. We should type a huge long page and then in the middle just write something like. Are you really reading this? And they are probobly not, so then se cou.. birdies! *chases birdies!*

[i_like_penguins]

i can stay focused on something if i want to do it but if there's something else on my mind i have the attection span of a 2 year....birdies! *runs after the birdies*

[Kerry]

Yes, Sometimes i get distracted from school work as i stare out the windo..birdies! *chases birdies*

[i_like_penguins]

i was in school the other day and i saw birdies out the window so i asked if i could go to the bathroom and then went out and chased the birdies....THERE THEY ARE AGAIN! *runs off to chase birdies again*

[rubydragoon]

i know i can pay attention for more tha...*looks other way* for mo...*looks another way* formorethanhalfanhour*runs to chase birdies*

[i_like_penguins]

Thank god it's the weekend now i can chase the birdies all day!!
*runs outside to chase birdies*

[Namhet]

so wait... birdies?

Err... i mean...

My attention span is BIRDIES! AHAHAHAHAHAHA! LOOK! THEY'RE FLYING! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[Kerry]

Ok, i think we are getting alittle off topic, so if we could get back to talking about attention spa... WOW, i pretty birdie! *chases birdies*

[TOP HAT McBABS]

Okay, I feel I should take a stand here. This is getting a little too out of hand... I mean, who can just post something and in the middle you see a bird and just forget about the post? How is that even possible.. Well.. I said it. Also, you need to make suOMFG A DEAD BIRD! *pokes it*

[i_like_penguins]

I wonder if the birdies are having fun with us chasing them or if they're scared?
i'll go catch one and ask it *runs ouside to catch a birdie*

[Diamond187]

Wow, I really started something with those birdies. Anyone seen that Clone High episode with Tom Green where he's making a big speech and then goes chasing after a plastic bag caught in the wind going "Plastic bag! Plastic bag! Plastic bag! Plastic bag! Plastic bag!"?

[i_like_penguins]

Clone high is the greatest show in the world, too bad i hardly ever get to watch a full episode cuzBIRDIES!! *goes to chase birdies*
oh P.S. WHO LIKES CHEESE!?!?!?

[rubydragoon]

i like cheese! *goes to chase birdies*

[Kerry]

Wow, I really started something with those birdies. Anyone seen that Clone High episode with Tom Green where he's making a big speech and then goes chasing after a plastic bag caught in the wind going "Plastic bag! Plastic bag! Plastic bag! Plastic bag! Plastic bag!"?

That was the only episode of that show i have ever seen. I laughed so hard! Tom green is a very funny person and when he started chasing that plastic bad i star..BIRDIES! *Chases birdies*

[i_like_penguins]

Once it came on i started watching it religeously, i even have all their episodes on tape (somewhere) i could probably recite most of the episodes out of mem-birdies!! *runs out to chase birdies*

[rubydragoon]

*comes inside holding bird* yay, i caught one! *pecks hand* ouch!!!!!!! dang u bir... watch out for the ceiling fan!!!!!!!!! *splat* ummmmm... yea. OH hello. i agree. Tom Green is funny and also some times a li...MORE BIRDIES!!!!!!!! *leaves to chase birdies*

[Diamond187]

Well, after a while you gotta stop chasing the birds cuz night falls and they go home and... bats! *goes running blindly after the bats*

[i_like_penguins]

Bats are scary some species of bats can pick a cow clean in a few hours. I'll just stick with my birdies, i have a tree in front of my house where they all me-BIRDIES!! *Jumps in his tree and chases the birdies*

[Diamond187]

I think you're thinking of Pirhanas, cuz I don't know of a single kind of Bat which could pick a cow clean (except for those ones in that movie Bats) but, other than that... Pirhanas! *goes to chase the Pirhanas*

[i_like_penguins]

well maybe not a few hours but they swarm the cow and slowly eat it to death because it's too slow to get away, not like those birdies though, man they're fast.
I think i'll go chase my dog *runs off to chase dog*

[Vagrant]

Umm... you guys are wayyyy offtopic

*chases group of 20 lions

[ubergmr]

well when you post a topic for people with low attention spans they get bored and go off topic

oooooooooooooooooooo, the little light on my computer is blinking

[i_like_penguins]

People with attention span problems are funny cuz one minute they're pating attention then they're-hey look at the guy on this pringles can- the next the-hey a ruler!- they're goofi-YES A QUARTER!!!

[ubergmr]

hey are you makeing fun of me, that guy on the pringles can is cool, and he is right once you poop the fun dont stop, untill i see a ruler oooooooooooooooo the light on my computer is blinking again

[i_like_penguins]

I like flashing lights, whenever i see anything that makes a flashing or glowing light i stare at it for prolonged periods of time. Woa......lava lamp......*stares at lave lamp for 3 hours straight*

[rubydragoon]

hey, cool lava la...SWEET MORE BIRDIES!!!!!!!!!
*goes to chase birdies*

[Iggy9955]

For 1 thing this barely had nething to do with helping or talking about people with low attention spans, it only involved people with low attention spans chaseing "BIRDIES!!!!" *BLAM!!!!!* done with that no more chasing birdies and y do i keep seeing my name like someone had something that said "Telling One they are Spamming is Spamming in Itself"-Hypersolidsnake
Did you remember to fill out your leg donor card, Iggy9955? IGGY9955 that's my name how the *&*!@ do people know me i jus got here. If anyone ever see's another Iggy9955 kill him 4 me please

It's a nasty little Tag in this board, called the Username-Tag. Of course this ISN'T overused by certain members of this board. You can find it on the bar above the message posting screen. Along with B, I, U, Hr, Quote... blah blah

[lazy21236]

hehehehehe..... you don't know the [ username ] thing, do you iggy?

it's farely simple and very fun. just put in [ username] but without any spaces and it shows the name of whoever is viewing it, you.
i remember when it came out, i thought i did something wrong and everyone hated me from all of the "i hate [username ] threads"

so don't get annoyed by it, it's just something fun to play with...

[The First]

it's farely simple and very fun.

I have to sadly disagree. It's not really fun. It may have been at some point, but it leads to countless Spam posts which pretty much say nothing more than "I hate [username:7726a9a88d] (too)". It's simply... I dunno, a pointless Tag, really.

[huntershadow]

YAY im reviving a dead topic:)
my attention span is about 30se......

conds

[general grievous]

Excepting, of course, those of us with ADHD. 22 minutes i cant pay attention that long! my brain would blow up (if i had one) if u have ADHD like me then bout 5 seconds

[Deathisgood]

if you had my English teacher you would be asleep in class i was but i was in back and i would always have my head down when i was awake, also if you were asleep you would get 3 weeks detention, bummer for chriss he has 40 more to go sence last year and i just graduated and he is in 8th grade this year.
