What Would You Do If Your Internet is Down For a Day? email this discussion to a friend?

farmaz (48)   ranked 1,159 out of 2,083 in internet surfer2 years ago

What would you do?I will be bored to death?Do you realize that nowadays our source of entertainment is more to internet compared to others?Frankly speaking,how many of you would rather check about something on the internet rather than visiting a local library to borrow a book to?I would personally surf the net for more information?Seriously,I will be bored till death if I do not have an internet connection.I would feel that I have lost a hand or a leg or something if I can't access the internet.What would you feel or do?

I had a bad connection once.I was chatting my friend when this happened.Each time I type and send to my friend,it gets disconnected.I was like "oh damn,it happened again".Arrghh,that was bad.I got really pissed and bored.It was raining and I can't go out either plus the cable channels weren't working due to the rain.I really felt freaked out.True Karen, can't live without it:)

Oh my goodness. I can't even begin to imagine just letting a few hours go by without going online. And I can totally relate to that feeling of like losing a limb or something because there's no connection. Sad as it seems, I have become so independent on the internet that at times I even find myself asking why the heck am I online when I don't really have anything to do anymore. But if it can't be helped and the internet really goes down for a day or so, I'd probably go and do something, anything, that could take my mind off of it. Otherwise, I might just go berserk and start smashing things or something. Oh god how I pray that that day may never come. Haha.

True,I feel like jumping off the Tower I'm working in if I don't have internet connection.It's like the first thing we do once we boot the pc will be connecting to the internet and start browsing.You wouldn't have anything in mind till you see the browser.

I am freak out for a while. I experienced it last year when had a big flood in our city. I did not use internet or computer for 2 weeks.

I repeat 2 weeks! My hand itching to type. I feel like I am out of comfort zone. I feel like I am so not updated from all the latest news. (Funny cause you also can check all latest news from TV or papers:) )

Hope I will not had that scary experience again.


farmaz (48)   ranked 1,159 out of 2,083 in internet surfer  2 years ago

Gosh!You did not have internet for 2 weeks?2 weeks?I would have freaked out and choke myself to death if that ever happens to me.Most of us would have that itch because we are so use to it.It's like our daily routine or something.We tend to forget ourselves when go online.About the updates,true we can check it out through papers and TV but they aren't updated as the internet.On the internet you feel like they have more news compared to TV and papers.Don't you agree?I sure hope you or anybody else to go through that scary experience again friend.I will literally kill myself.Gosh,we are so addicted to it!


farmaz (48)   ranked 1,159 out of 2,083 in internet surfer  2 years ago

Ermm....correction

I hope you or anybody else NOT to go through that scary experience!


myLot reputation of 86/100. hcpoirot (841)   ranked 1,728 out of 2,083 in internet surfer  2 years ago

Yes, two weeks! Not to mention i had to clean my dirty house from mud or whatever that linger after the big flood. That was the worst year in my life. Thank God its over already:)

Well, one is pretty much time for my internet to be goes down. Sometimes ago when I use to have wired connection then almost every week I have problems in wire, sometimes wire broke up due to some winds and due to anyother cause too, And now I have got a wireless connection which if fails then its only for a while and everything works find in just a few minutes.
And I know how I live my life with those wired connection. All time i just dialing those customer care that my n/w goes down pls help me out and they are so reckless people...lol just useless to work.

what all I do is to view any movie or play any game but its not worth of playing games and watching movies...lol I need internet connection which atleast be there for 24 hours a day...haahhahaha


farmaz (48)   ranked 1,159 out of 2,083 in internet surfer  2 years ago

Hey there,I really feel sad for you.Looking at the way technology has been upgrading and improved I think you wouldn't be facing the problems soon.Not so soon.looks like you still have to deal with those useless fellows to help you out lol.Thanks for the response.

when my internet connection is down, i guess it will be the time to give my fingers some rest from typing and clicking the mouse:) . internet, can't live without it. can't leave home because of it.:D


farmaz (48)   ranked 1,159 out of 2,083 in internet surfer  2 years ago

you can say that again.It's even worse that being a drug addict.Of course we don't want to be one but look at ourselves.We are dependent on the internet.Anything we need to check on.Check it out on the internet will ya?it has been the most common term we've been using.Thanks for the comments.

I've had a few times where I woke up to no internet for forgetting to pay the bill. Its usually only out for 4 hours or so but that 4 hours always takes forever. And it always happens on the days that nothing is on tv and theres nothing good to do outside.


farmaz (48)   ranked 1,159 out of 2,083 in internet surfer  2 years ago

lol,I guess that happens to me at times too.It sucks doesn't it when there's nothing nice on TV at this kind of times.Geez,I will be wondering my head out what am I supposed to do.Just wait.You can't sleep coz you just woke up and the TV sucks.Of all times,it has to suck now.God,I really hate when this happens

i might feel lost because i need to check my email, promote my novel, chat with some internet pen pals. but if i know it is only temporary, i will probably go in my bedroom and read a novel, watch tv, or go to the gym to work out.


farmaz (48)   ranked 1,159 out of 2,083 in internet surfer  2 years ago

Well friend.You do know how to fill up your time.I think I gotta learn up how to spend my time without the internet.Thanks for the comments

farmaz (48)   ranked 1,159 out of 2,083 in internet surfer  2 years ago

True,there a lot of other things to do besides enjoying the internet.I think I shall try and conduct a survey among my colleagues,family and friends on this issue.Thank you for the comments again.
