Please. Pretty please?

I got a job though! The manager said I had a pretty smile so I'll be waiting tables at Applebee's. If you're in the Southwestern Tennessee area, gimme a visit. (Or don't, preferably.)

So, did you ever have bad internet that prohibited your ability to chat with EoFFers? How long did it last?

:jess: Congrats on the job!! <3

And I think the most I've gone without internet is about a day. Well, not counting the ~20 years of my life before I actually got reliable internet access.

I did notice you were gone for awhile. As always, I'm glad your back! :D

One time this year, the internet went down. Didn't go on EoFF for about a day. I was really annoyed.

My sexual adventures tend to get in the way of my internet dealings. Yes, I do not watch porn and I have ACTUAL sex, unlike so many of you nerds. :mock:

I shudder to think of how much money I spent on using internet cafes over the last decade. Ugh.

My internet in Iraq/Afghanistan was always horrible. Sometimes it wouldn't even work at all. Sometimes it would be slower then back when I had a 33.6k modem in the nineties :p I always pushed through it as best I could.

Speak for yourself. Plenty of sex, just can do many things. Actually my work schedule being what it is interferes with my sex life...

As for EoFF, it is more me avoiding it than my internet being sucky or failing. Between a steady connection and my smartphone data plan, I am good. At worst, it is when I am stuck in a signal deadspace while taking a long train ride to my parents and am extremely bored in the middle of the night. Few hours at most.

strenuous sex life, eh?

i've never had internet connection problems limiting my eoff use, apart from like, vacations where I didn't have constant internet access (mostly the early 2000s). i've been away from eoff for other reasons, though.

Srsly guys.

I've never had internet issues that have impeded my EoFF access. I have stopped posting for months at a time though because of other things, or being abroad.

Grats on the job! :D

And I wish I could un-awful your internet. Awful internet sucks.

For a second I thought I was going to reply in the wrong thread because I randomly see the word sex everywhere.

Before I moved out of my old apartment a couple of months ago, my internet went down because some idiot cable guy thought a good solution to install other people's cable was to remove the line going into my and another tenants apartment. I was six days without internet.

I do have a smart phone, so I coped that way. I also mainly use a laptop so I went to other people's houses that I was going to anyway during that time to use the internet through normal means.

I also coped by trying to sing along to the Japanese end credits of Dragon Ball Z on ambien and recorded it on my smart phone.

I went without internet for about 6 months while I was at my mothers house, except when I was visiting sharky.

Sometimes the internet is a rascal and doesn't work for a while. It gets annoying when I can't use it at all. Thankfully it hasn't done that for a while, not since I bought a new modem at least.

When I don't have internet use, I have serious EoFF withdrawals. I get on it on my phone, but it doesn't work very well. :(

Right now our internet is cut, as we're moving in a week. My upstairs neighbours were kind enough to give me their wifi password, though.

Back when i lived in florida i had some shitty internet.. constantly went down at my primetime for gaming and i would call up the company and they would say they were doing maintenance.. I then asked one time why they were doing maintenance every other night for the past few months.. needless to say there was no reply to it but an automated response of "I'm sorry you feel that way" ... bastards /humph
