A debilitating psychological condition which affects computer users everywhere. Update addiction has to do with the excessive downloading of software updates and should not be confused with an Updating Whore. You are likely an update addict if...
You click "Software Update..." (on Mac) or "Windows Update" (on Windows) more than three times a day.
You cannot resist buying the latest version of software or operating system -- even if you don't need, want, or even care to know about the new features.
You click "Check for updates" every time you run a program.
You stay up late watching the progress bar to make sure your latest update "really updated."
You get frustrated by stable software because it doesn't require updates every other day. So you always choose beta or nightly builds to ensure that you can download a maximum number of updates.

Dude: Dang! I just clicked Software Update, and it didn't find anything to update. What am I going to do???
Chick: (rolls eyes) Dunno man. Click it again?
Dude: Ok.
Chick: You need help. You have update addiction.
Dude: Ok, but before I go to the clinic, I need to go buy XYZSoft5. I only have XYZSoft4.

Get the Addisyn mug.A brown haired girl that normally tends to wear hoodies. She comes off as quiet and polite at first, but as you get to know her, her personality will spark to life. She is extremely clingy, and gets jealous quite easily, but she is an extremely likable person. She can be a bit confusing at times, though. One day she'll be quiet, kind, and sleepy. The next day...a hyper ball of energy. Sometimes she's okay with talking to others, and sometimes she gets shy. Its always hard to tell, but every day with her is a good one. She has many friends, and is obsessed with multiple series, like Harry Potter, Warrior Cats, Percy Jackson, Wings of Fire, Hamilton, etc. Despite being semi-popular, and having a bunch of friends, she normally doesn't like hanging around girls who could be considered popular. Oh, yeah, and shes stubborn.
"She's such an Addisyn!"
"She's as clingy as an Addisyn."
