I would run out of the house, go on the nearest highway, hijack a car, drive the car into a river over a bridge and jump on to the bridge in mid-air, come back to the house, watch the wall, get bored, pretend i'm spider man, and then redo.
No. But seriously I think i'd go nuts and not be as "oh so smart" as I am |

Well I certainly wouldn't be into web developing / web designing. I'd probably spending most of my days with things like related to Metal-Smithing. That'd actually my secondary choice of a career next to becoming a programmer. Well either that or an architect. Architecture requires a lot of University tuition though. I'd for sure be a lot more active in things like sports, socializing with other people, and going out just for the fun of it.
I certainly wouldn't be as desensitized as I am today, if the internet never existed. It's quite intriguing to see what the internet has to offer, which is virtually everything. You just have to know where to look really. The internet has contains certain things that should never be viewed be anyone. Things like 'LOL Cats,' 'Clock-Spider,' 'All Your Base Are Belong To Us,' 'Star Wars Kid,' Chuck Norris Jokes, 'Leeroy Jenkins,' 'Ultimate Showdown,' 'Spaghetti Monster,' and countless other Internet Memes wouldn't exist. Which give us 'LOL's' but annoy most of us even more. There also wouldn't be any StumbleUpon, or StumbleUpon Insomnia. I'd probably be a completely different person if it wasn't for the internet. I'd probably be a much better person actually. I can't say why that is. But to me, it feel the internet is partially responsible for the way I act (what a surprise.), and my sense of humour. Doesn't it seem like the Internet teaches us to find humour in other peoples' pain? The world would be so different without the internet, because so many things are influenced by the Internet. It'd be hard to say what I'd do without it. |

No internet, then I can't buy something I can't find in local market. I will refer yellow pages to find a repairman. I will go to library for a question with tens or hundreds books.
In a word that's terrible. |

If there was no internet i believe the world would be much different and i would be more active on the outside and be doing all the things i used to do before becoming a internet fiend like going out and playing sports hanging out at the library, movies and roaming the streets with friends. Im still active on the outside but without the net i would have more of a life, not saying i dont but the internet can get really addictive to people and for some it can be a way of live (shopping, meeting people, news, media etc.)

without internet, i'd spend all, or at least most of my day either programming or learning how to program games. i'd be more of a waste of space than i am now yah i would do that too. but i would prefer to watch tv, hang out with my friends, visit places all around the globe, give more time to my girl friend and all. currently because of an internet freak i am light years away from my girl friend, watching movies, haning out with my friends and all other stuffs i love to do. i would spend more time to learn how to do this how to do that and i would spend more time to build my own real life business. i would read books and sketch my own car designs. |

i would smash my notebook up. i would deposit the fragments in a blender. i would drink the juice. i would go onto the pacific highway and get run over.
no, seriously i would be playing that pathetic game with the ball and the cup. i live the internet, i breathe the internet. i need the internet for torrenting. i need the internet for web design/webdev (which is what i do best, by the way). I NEED THE INTERNET!!! |

i wood hav tu start reeding tu get my hi skool dumbolma.......naoooo bak tu the pourn
actually, it's true....remember the movie "cable guy"? when cable got shut off in the district, dude picked up a book like he was reading it all along. the older generation feel the internet is unproductive. they don't understand it. it's like setting the time on the vcr. they will never get it....even when you show them how to google something 1,000 times. i am who i am today partially because of the internet. back when the internet was semi-public, people always stated that the net wasn't the real world. i kept telling them they were wrong. especially when people would hurt others by the use of their words. it was then and will be tomorrow a form of communication and it's as real as it gets. although, it's easier to put on a mask behind a computer screen. i've experienced a lot on the net and i don't regret a single day that it was a part of my life, even during the most traumatic times on the net. i've learned alot, it helped me grow and now i get a pleasure of guiding others on and off the net ahhhh! did i mention i met my wife on the net? for sure, without the net, i would be a totally different person i also wouldn't have the pleasure of being on trap17 and trap17 wouldn't have the pleasure of banning me for not quoting |
