  • Sickos. continues hiding from the real world
  • Well, you met me, gomi. Was I real or not?
  • I'll go for 'not'. Is there a prize?
  • No, we really did meet up. Gomi took a picture of the back of my head. How real is that?
  • That proves NOTHING! Goddam figment of my imagination! *twitch*
  • Wolof baby you were UNREAL! (~^)
  • Heh. Right. Meatspace. Haha.
  • Internet-free...you mean I won't have to pay my ISP that day?
  • I was internet free for 28 years, so I figure I got some extra internet time saved-up, here.
  • "...and a day of cold turkey won't hurt." LIAR. Couldn't hook up to MoFo yesterday, and it damn near killed me, what, having nothing but real news and pr0n to look at at work. I hate what you people have made me become.
  • (MoFo is my pet name for MoFi. It's a love-hate thing.)
  • and merely coincidence that "i" and "o" are next to each other on the keyboard?
  • Evidently tracicle took this idea a little too seriously, yesterday.
  • Dear Global Ideas, Please let me explain to you the general principles concerning a DOS attack. Now fuck off. Thank you for listening.
  • These people are obviously some of these "real world" freaks you hear of. Pay them no attention.
  • Only if they do "cell-phone and television free" day first. I use the internet to communicate, do research and get entertainment. Its like asking me to give up the public library, the phone, and the movie cinema all at once.
  • TV Turnoff week is coming. Start your blathering now to be ready! Seriously though, what's the web site for Internet Free Day? Guys?
  • *reaches down, pulls The Big Plug, ceases to exist*
  • I actually did this voluntarily(ish) last Sunday! My router died and lost the login details. Instead of looking for them, I decided not to, and did lots of Real Life things. I got so much done! I'm thinking of doing this everh Sunday. I must admit, though, it was hard, having had access to the internet every day for over 10 years. For me, rationing doesn't work, it had to be cold turkey.
  • Yesterday was your forced internet-free day. Call it a day in lieu.
  • No net day? So, what, am I supposed to go out and talk with fellow humans, face-to-face? I guess would need to wear something more than my pajamas... Seriously, there are some days when it's easier to achieve this. Weekends and such, and of course on vacation.
  • I did the quiz and apparently I am an average user. This despite checking in on MoFi a minimum of three times a day (er, except yesterday). I guess it's okay if you think you have control over your online time. Which I totally do. Of course.
  • I had to come back. My mouse was lonely.
  • See? I made it! 5 hours, no net, no mail, no nothing! Tomorrow, I'll do 7 hours, no sweat! A quick check of favorite messageboards on an internet cafĂ© on the way home doesn't count, does it?
  • DAMN YOU INTERNET! WHY MUST YOU TASTE SO GOOOOOOOD!
  • I'm being forced to stay off the internet at work because I've been given a huge project. (I've been lucky if I even get a lunch break the last few weeks!) It's horrible. I'm totally goofing off today, though.
  • *phones Lara's boss*
  • *gags kitfisto* *with a beer*
  • That's it, I'm posting more comments than ever before on "Internet Free Day"
  • mmm. Beer gag.
  • I am fond of gomi. I am hoping this is evident to the casual reader. Like me here in me shorts, sweltering.
  • Casual, I mean. Do I have to spell teh everything out to you sasshats?
  • dear mr wol hat wot advantage in that?
  • ps I'm fond of wol also of eeyore
  • Dear Mr. Bee, Can a bee wear a hat?
  • But of course --we wear derbies.
  • And ye can always find two bees in a baseball cap.
  • **long hook comes out and hooks Bees off the stage**
  • *stomps to ticket booth for refund*
  • Bee 'neath contempt?
