Fordite Addicts Anonymous
the addiction
we feel it too
This page is dedicated to those of you who have discovered fordite, and have now developed an uncontrollable compulsion to buy, and hoard it in multiples, and cannot seem to stop.
Many of you have been badly bitten by the fordite “bug”, and find yourself in desperate need of a twelve step program. If you are experiencing any of the symptoms below, or combinations of symptoms, please select some fordite items from our inventory that seem to soothe you, or contact us immediately.
We can help you through this difficult time.
After much research into this interesting compulsive disorder, experts have determined that it is actually more advisable to just give in to the Fordite Gollum than to fight it. After the first signs of dependency, studies have shown that acquiring more fordite is the only way to experience any lasting relief, or sense of calm and well being. However, for some sufferers, the Fordite Gollum returns quickly.
If after acquiring more and more pieces, the uneasy “gimme, gimme” feelings return more rapidly than the last time, contact us, and we will provide you with additional support until you can afford some more. Don’t worry, you’re not alone….
