Okey, i found a rather intesting topic on totse about this subject.

 

It's as the topic title says; what would you do without the internet? I mean.. The internet would not exist.

 

 

 

 

 

I'd probably still be a total [wagon], skipping classes in school and ruining my life. I'd also never met my girlfriend.

 

I'd never been in the Home Guard. (as i found out that they had cadet training on the internet)

 

Well, i wouldn't sit here. I'd probably be out getting wasted.

 

 

 

 

 

Edit: I do not want replys like this one below by Jopie211.

 

 

 

Edit:Edit: the question is not if the internet CEASED TO exist. The question is: If it DID NOT exist.

Invent it.

Hmm.

 

 

 

I'd probably go out more, but i can never be arsed usually since it is so nice and warm inside. :)

 

 

 

I suppose I would read more books and buy more newspapers.

 

 

 

Use my phone more often.

 

 

 

That sort of thing. :-k

Invent it.

 

 

 

Heh thats a good idea.

 

 

 

Face it, if the internet never exsisted, then we'd be able to deal with it, as it was never there in the first friggin place.

 

 

 

Maybe if your question was "What if the internet suddenly ceased to exsist?", then I could give a better answer.

What would you do if the internet suddenly ceased to exist?

 

 

 

Be sad : (

I'd probably waste my time just as much, just in a different way.

Probely go out with friends more, watch more TV, play more games on console, or other 'pointless' stuff.

Play my guitar. :XD:

Have worse typing, grammar and punctuation.

 

 

 

I'd also be more out-going ;).

Have worse typing, grammar and punctuation.

 

 

 

 

Don't get me started on that. I'd still type like one of those myspace reta....Nevermind.

 

 

 

What did people do in, about 1997 when nearly nobody had an internet connection at home? Well... They did all the same stuff, except people were at other people's houses and outside more than now.

 

 

 

In 2008, people rather challenge their friends to online poker, online strategy game... Read news online... Pretty much, outsource their life online.

 

 

 

I don't mind, but nothing is more fun than playing an actual board game or poker game with friends/relatives :) Actually going to the movies instead of downloading new films from Bittorrent is also fun, so are newspapers (even though they are time consuming to read if you're on a schedule).

 

 

 

Face it, the average modern people in western countries have found out they can do almost everything online that they can do in the real world, just faster and without having to move.. :lol: And people wonder where the fat everquest/RPG nerd stereotype comes from...

I probably wouldn't be as lazy and I wouldn't procrastinate as much - but on the other hand my English wouldn't be 10% of what it is today. I'd also probably be much less argumentative.

I'd be much more ignorant. The internet has always been a great source of knowledge for me. I'd probably be just as social as I'm now, I'd just simply phone a friend instead of messaging him, and I'd certainly read more.

Nothing really, just continue my normal life without it.

I'd be outside 24/7 playing football, working out, and skating. :-X

Whank over magazines instead

All at the same time?

I guess i'd be more focused, the internet can be really distracting when it's just there all the time.

 

 

 

I'd also be a lot less world wise and knowledgeable. I've learnt a lot from the internet.

I guess i'd be more focused, the internet can be really distracting when it's just there all the time.

 

 

 

Like now, I have a 100+ question take-home Java exam sitting next to me, but I really don't feel like doing it.

 

 

 

I would definitely not procrastinate as much.

+1 for procrastination.

 

 

 

But I quite like being a slacker.

 

 

 

I value doing absolutely nothing constructive, unlike others who need to do stuff.

Man that things going to be a pain in the [bleep].

I dunno' about 'nearly nobody'. I did, and most people I knew did, although

 

since I was 7 at the time I didn't have much use for it.

Yeah, I'm gonna pop in a pizza and get on that. . . Definitely not something to leave until 9 o'clock tonight :lol: .

If the internet would of never existed, right now I would probably be a ignorant-teenager with no care for anyone else.

 

 

 

 

 

:shock:

 

Thank god for the interweb!!!

If the internet never existed, I won't be as smart as I am now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not that I am smart, but you know what I mean >.<

I'd be outside 24/7 playing football, working out, and skating. :-X

 

Same here.
