    :monster: No internet, no life

    My ISP derped up the internet until tomorrow (Except on my brick of a cellphone) and I am slowly going insane. Do you survive when you have no internet or do you have no life outside of it, like me?

    i can survive but i'd be pretty antisocial without it. as long as i have electricity i have games, and failing that i could read a book or go outside or something. but all my best friends are internet

    Oh no!

    Well, I am mostly online when I'm home, and to not have internet available would drive me just as insane, so I would probably spend it playing video games or sleeping.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    What is this "no internet" you speak of?

    What?

    But seriously folks, without the internet I am an empty shell of a man and unable to take care of myself.
    now safe beneath their wisdom, and their feet;
    here i will teach you truly how, to sleep.

    Internet stuff is what I do when I'm bored i.e. work. I have a lot of hobbies and stuff I like to do away from a screen though since I spend 40 hours in front of one atm.

    I can't really say I'm all that social while afk but I like to keep myself well-rounded by unplugging a lot.

    It would make my classes difficult and I'd miss you wankers but I'd probably survive alright.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.

    I'm usually a bit ansty without it for 24 hours - but after that I end up not really missing it that much. Usually because I have a mountain of TV shows/books/games collecting dust that the internet normally distracts me from!

    Life without internet isn't that difficult. I have a crapload of hobbies and I have a lot of friends and a lot of work to do, so internet is a very small aspect of my life normally.

    I hate not having Internet, I feel so disconnected. A few years back we moved and I spent three days just watching anime because we didn't have Internet yet and I had no car. It was brutal.

    Thankfully I will never have to deal with that again since I have a smartphone and unlimited data.

    Unless I'm totally immersed in something, I actually get restless when I'm on the internet for long periods of time. ;.;

    I have other hobbies and a regular group of friends, so not having internet isn't too bad sometimes. I have a smurfton of books to read, too.

    Starting on my left with one, your number comes up, you go.

    I would adjust and find something else to do. I have other means of connecting with the important people in my life who I usually contact through the internet which makes it easier.

    New 12/12/12 theory: The internet goes out for a month, world goes bat trout crazy.

    I'll just use my phone or pay the bill! Nah, I'm just joking. I will usually pay a game because in my area if it ever goes down it's just for under an hour.

    I play some video games, watch a movie, or take a nap. There's a lot to do, guys.
