You know you're an audiophile if--

Hello, my name is Wade and I'm an audiophile.... if I stop listening to my music and get rid of my system will I still be an audiophile? Once an audiophile, always an audiophile?

Abucktwoeighty-it is just like Alcoholism and Smoking.
You may stop listening to Music and get rid of your
System. If you set one foot in a High End Store, it will
start up all over again right where you left off. It will be like you never quit! I know from personal experience.
This is the third time that I have fallen off of the
Wagon.

i am in deep denial. no amount of negative consequences throw up yellow much less red lights. family interventions don,t work as i have my lawyer on speed dial to speed up my release from detox facilities. since there are no hifi stores within a 2 hour drive i am going to walmart right now just to look at the hdmi cables that i don,t even need. this post is a cry for help. how pathetic ha

Hotmailjbc-This Post isn't a cry for help. It is supposed
to be a humorous view of self reflection of the Audiophile
Hobby. These Statements are supposed to be over the top as
excessive exaggerations, no relation to reality-pathetic
or not! My Reference to Audiophilia as an obsession, like
smoking or alchoholism, is an exaggeration. Point wasn't
to insult those with serious smoking/alcohol problems, but to exaggerate the obsessiveness of Audiophilia by comparison. Pathetic is ruining a simple Joke, by having to explain it. There is nothing else pathetic here, because
none of it is real. It is all an exaggeration. You are
aware that this is simply an exercise-Right? Say, "Now
you do"!
