The Internet is Broken

Oh no! The Internet is broken and can't be fix... at all.

If this really happened, what would you do if all of the sudden, the Internet stops working for everyone? I know it's not really possible, but the chances are quite slim or unexisting. Well, if the Net was indefinitely down, how would you spend your time that you used to use online?

As for me, I might as well use the newfound freetime to do stuff I used to love, and I might even have more time to do other things as well. And most of all, I won't be able to stay up late like I do now, so I also get the chance to sleep "on time" xD

Holy crap, don't SCARE me like that. I wouldn't get to talk to all you fine folks anymore. :(

I would probably sit around. That, or play more video games. I would probably sleep a LITTLE more, but not that much. No matter what time I go to bed, if it was my choice I'll wake up at 11.

I'd use the phone more.

I would drop out of school. Library? Pfft.

I would spend all of my time sleeping, reading, and drawing.

I would be forced to socialize in real life. And use the phone to talk to people.

And I'd probably send mail to BoB, considering he's the only person from here whose address I know. :D And from him, I'd get other people's addresses, and harass you all through the mail! :D

Although BoB's address has probably changed, since he moved.

I'd go out and find some real friends that have bodies and independent thoughts. Heh. Just kidding. I'd probably spend a hell of a lot more time with my family, a significant amount of time reading and studying, lots of time driving and a substantial amount of time eating for boredom.

In other words - I'd adapt.

If you used my Scotland address, you'll be fine - I've only had one address over here. I still have your hair. :D

I'd use the phone a lot and I'd probably write to a few people too. I'd watch a lot of cricket. I'd spend my money on more cable channels. I don't think I'd spend that much time on video games, given that I get bored of them so fast and couldn't download new ones every day.

I'd also listen to the radio a lot more and actually BUY music. xD

Run away to Jersey Wisconsin Utah Arazona Florida. >_>
Then more people could call me with their nation-wide long distance, too. Awesome. :D

I'd have no choice but to go out and hit on women :(

Every so often I'd ring Daniel or Aaron and excitedly exclaim that the internet was back up and running :D

I laughed out loud upon reading this statement.

OOC:	PS. Nikkei, I need to call you. Ciddies committee meeting. Bug me during the weekend or during one of your mornings (like now) to call you.

I'd kill myself, concidering my only sorce of porn communication with my friends would be knocked out.

Same thing I do when the internet service goes down at the tech shop--fix it.

Even if the whole internet was gone, worldwide, I would be fixing it.

You would spend hours doing almost every little bit of the work, like 99% of it or something, and then Scottie or Unne would come along and do the last little bit that you forgot and get all the credit. :(

And I would laugh :D

I'd get out more.

I'd do what everyone else does and get a life. *Waits for everyone to get mad* Just joshin', just joshin'. I guess I would swim in my pool or work on my mad tennis skills.

I'd have a lot more time to play games, go out, get homework in on time, meet girls, write novels, build houses of cards...Holy heck. Now I want the internet to break.

I'd eat a sandwich if the Internet went down.

I'd play the games I normally play but single player.

I'm backing up the internet just in case. How many DVDs will it take? I have like 30

Someone has been at Gamingforce lately. ;)

I'd have more time to get off-line stuff done.

I have no idea what you are talking about, as what I posted was from my own demented mind.

But the internet > sars

*was talking to pr00t* =P

I'd remark "Oh my, the internet is 'Broken'. I guess I'll emigrate to Mississippi." Even though I wouldn't really emigrate to Mississippi, I'd just feel like saying that to console myself after this...tragic...loss.

I'd take a nap or watch a movie.

I'd say "Neat" and go outside.

No, I'd be but a single member of a large, skilled, and determined team, and we'd have the internet back up within 12 minutes, where it would take me maybe an hour to do it by myself.

:(

Because of this thread ... I'm gonna collect phone numbers. ^_^

Wheeeeeee! *prank calls all of you* :nibbles:

edit: Oh yeah, and I'd blame Bleys. ^_^

That's a really scary thought. I'd go insane from boredom. :screwy:

I'd buy a satalite uplink and then beam stuff to peoples TVs or something, that would be cool, what are we going on about again

*skips through a few pages*

.....

I would read all five books of Harry Potter. (again!)

if the internet crashed irrepairibly forever well first I would probably have to say "OMFG it's GONE!!!????? It Can't Be!" then I would hastily track down a couple of people from the net like Xander I'd find her cause she's cool good person to talk to lindz living in london would probably be my best chance seeing as there are only a few alternative people in london who I can't track down using my large social circle. then I'd work on the contacts in other countries I'd like to keep. I'd call Monkey0 (a friend from a online beta test rpg) and see about staying with him in austrailia for a while and then track down hOOters to go get drunk with :D. also I'd then track down Bleys and help him out to be totally forgotten even by those who remember Bleys did it and calliope would laugh at me more than bleys. before that though I'd probably go out and repair some of the damage I caused in my social circle and then laugh manically at the lack of the internet eating away at my soul.

This thread has made me feel insecure and paranoid.

Give me your addresses, please. Now.

Play more video games I guess...

I'd wake up, and remind myself not to eat pizza immediatly before going to bed.

ConqueringId (5:46:56 PM): okay
ConqueringId (5:46:59 PM): you dont always have to
Erik (5:47:31 PM): i know
Erik (5:47:38 PM): its just awkward thats all
ConqueringId (5:47:45 PM): naw
Erik (5:47:50 PM): im self conscious around you
ConqueringId (5:48:00 PM): maybe this would be easier if you did other stuff on the internet as well
Erik (5:48:20 PM): perhaps

gets on your nerves a little after a while doesnt it?

But inane IM conversations are the heart and soul of my love of the internet!

If it went out, I'd laugh at all the people who can't look up porno anymore, then I'd cry because I wouldn't be able to play games online anymore.
