I used to subscribe to about 5 during the summer, but I never even really read the posts on them. Right now I'm only subscribed to this one.

I subscribe to 4 groups, but the most frequently used one is South Park, I though the people in SP-NG is cooler then the other 3 .

Mr Psycho sang this to the tune of "When I Was On Top Of You," which very nearly gave me a brain aneurism:

~need to make some kind of conversation. i'm getting depressed :( ~just found out my physics module marks...ouch. looks like i'll be ~retaking them in june...

Physics was painful. I dropped it...couldn't take two serious tough-math classes at once...

~anyway, as the title says how many newsgroups are you subscribed to, ~or in regular contact with?

Wow. I'm subscribed to 18 newsgroups. I retrieve posts from 6 of them on a regular basis. That's um...1/3, right? Hm..

alt.binaries.southpark alt.binaries.tori-amos alt.current-events.blizzard-of-93 alt.games.final-fantasy alt.tv.southpark alt.tv.southpark.creative

Of those six, I post to three on a semi-regular basis (ACEBo93, AGFF, and ATSp). That's half of my third, and ultimately one-sixth. I've made at least one post to each of those groups...

~for me it's 14, although a few of those get about 5 posts a week, ~unless something important happens.

ACE has found new life, with around 90 posts in the last three days. AGFF has 2-500 posts a day. I typically only read those posts which have interesting subject lines or are from posters in my watch-file.

Interestingly enough, I find it most difficult to post to ATSP, of all the groups I post to...because it's on-topic, and I'm usually two months behind everybody in terms of having seen episodes, since I don't get ComCen and must rely on video releases and tapes from someone really sweet who gets the channel and records the durn thing for me...

Now, for obligatory on-topic, remember folks, email [email] and tell them you want a re-airing of Terrance and Phillip's "Not Without My Anus." So that I and so many other losers like me can actually see it for the first time.

Well I'm a Delphi programmer, and I like to help people with tech problems, so you'll see why I subscribe to the following:

alt.binaries.southpark alt.comp.borland-delphi alt.comp.lang.borland-delphi alt.lang.delphi alt.music.goo-goo-dolls alt.tv.southpark alt.tv.southpark.creative borland.public.delphi freeserve.help.modems freeserve.webspace.authoring

Sad? You bet. That's only 10, though. Not too bad. I've got to join some humour groups soon though.

Out of those ten, I usually only post to 4 on a regular basis, and 3 others on occassion (depends if I have anything worthwhile to post at any of the science NGs), the other 3 I just lurk in. I do have a few others to which I'm subscribed, but haven't visited in the last month or two.
