Definition

LonelyCrack is a portmanteau of the words "Lonelygirl15" and "crack". Users who are addicted to the lonelygirl15 series refer to it as their drug, and jokingly claim to go through withdrawal when a video has not been posted for over a day. An example of usage would be "I need my fix of LonelyCrack... now!"

Addicts sometimes refer to themselves as LonelyCrack-heads or LonelyCrackers.

First use of the word LonelyCrack

I for one am not afraid of new characters. The comments I 
made on the 24th had to do with WHAT this medium should be. 

And, no I have intentions of leaving LonelyCrack….err, 
Lonelygirl, because of new people. We will all be here to
the end… 

Symptoms of LonelyCrack Addiction

• Your openning comment to any video posted must include FIRST! (loudly) in the body of your comment (see also User:General Firstsayer)

• Return to the website daily, if for no other reason, to re read the comments you read yesterday (or in the last ten minutes)

• Avoid all things Orange (esp Orange slurpee, although Cherry, Grape and Cola have tested okay)

• Look suspiciously at any and all Girl Scouts (or any person in possesion of Girl Scout Cookies)

• Ensure you have quarters available whenever you log on (for Lizard)

• Dwell on any mystery (related or not) for the sake of dwelling on mysteries

• Keep all of your Marbles clean and shiny (if you have any left, mine went to Marbella)

• Make sure your local preschool DOES teach anagram solving

The LonelyCrack Support Group

The term LonelyCrack instantly caught on and the LG15-addict support group LonelyCracks Anonymous came into being. It already has too many members to count.

The Breakout Sessions

Proposed break-out sessions for the support group meetings:

• stuffed animal codependency
• blacksuitophobia
• anagram obsession
• Orange may not be as evil as thought

The Support Group Food

All food at the meetings should be rich in healthy, mood-enhancing endorphins:

• bundt cake
• chocolate cookies
• fudge

A special recipe for "LonelyCrack Fudge" was provided by Withe:

Take an entire bag of any kind of chip (chocolate, peanut butter, cherry,
 white chocolate, whatever kind of baking chip you find in the bakery aisle 
at the supermarket) and dump it into a microwave safe bowl.

Buy a tub of whatever cake icing you prefer.
Dump about 4/5 of the container into the bowl with the chips. (You can save 
whatever’s left in the container to ice the fudge if you prefer).

Nuke it for 1 minute.
Stir.

Nuke it for another minute.
Stir.

Nuke it one more time at one minute, stir until it is all mixed together. 

Pour this melted yummy in your tummy concoction into a baking dish sprayed with
a little bit of cooking spray, or rub a stick of butter on the bottom of the 
dish to keep it from sticking. If you want, you could sprinkle nuts on the top 
of the fudge while it’s still hot. 

Give it time to cool (a couple of hours in the fridge works best).

Then eat! 

A joined meeting with "Fudge Overeaters Anonymous" is planned.

The Retreat Weekend

Since the LG15 - topics would never fit into our daily meetings at LG15.com, a retreat weekend was proposed.

Preferably in Paris (not Egypt!).

With the Eiffel Tower looming in the background.

In an Internet cafe (broadband connection mandatory).

The French word for "refresh" is: régénérez

No longer in Need of Support?

You think you made it? Got a real life and managed a 48 hours abstinence from the comment boards?

Well, there is still one more test you have to pass, the NAXAN-test:

Bring this cake to the next support group meeting: Orange Cake

If you manage to bake it and eat a piece of it, you're officially clean!

Please bring your own witness for the test in case the other support group members have already run screaming out of the room before they can witness you eat!

The Support Group Board (respresented by krig) accepted the test as official with the words:

Orange bundt cake can be the litmus test of LonelyCrack-ishness.

Random Outbursts of Insanity due to Addiction

And on some completely random unrelated in any way topic, because the lack of 
video is really not helping conversation…has anyone Terry Pratchett’s new book 
Wintersmith? If not, you really should, it’s great.

Quote: The kitten rubbed up against Granny’s legs and went ‘meep’.

I don’t why I like that line…I think it’s just the word ‘meep’.

Actually, it is related, coz that’s where I found out that Enochi meant guilt, 
having coincidentally just read it before seeing the words ‘Book of Enoch’…
pretty cool, huh?

Yes, little things please me.

Anyway, do carry on the sensible discussion…
