How long could you last without using the internet

OnionBeetle · December 05, 2015, 11:20:59 AM

Was thinking of not using the internet for a few weeks just to test myself. I'm honestly not sure how reliant I am upon it and how much it would fuck with my day if I had no internet usage. Proably so much fuck you'd take for granted. Banking, streaming, messaging, memeing, all that good shit.

How long could you go for? No connection whatsoever, on phone laptop or whatever, like you're back in the 50's.

inb4 some vaper le 'what's your zombie plan xddd upvote' redditor says forever because they can survive off the fatta the lan'. And internet is not neccessary for survival. You know what I mean by the question you bastard.

Probably not very long because I'd be really bored without it. I could last a while but only if I find something else to waste my time on.

I would like to at least print out some pictures I could jerk off to repeatedly first.

I've went a few months without internet before, which wasn't so bad. I actually accomplished a lot because I didn't have the internet to distract me.

I only use it for talking, primarily. Which is something I can live without. It's a habit now, to show up and hang round here. But if I was cut off for whatever reason, I'd find things to occupy my time.

A day, usually courtesy of powercuts.

Then withdrawal sets in ;-;

It would suck, but indefinitely if I had to.

I'd probably break before the end of the first day

I need internet for college, so I wouldn't last long.

In terms of not using it in my free time though, a long time easily. I have a fuck ton of books I need to catch up with. Plus my writing.

Easily

Casper · December 05, 2015, 01:21:16 PM

I couldn't.

I wish forms of instant messaging didn't exist tbh

I went weeks without it in the past. I'll be fine

I mean obviously indefinitely. I wouldn't enjoy not having it, but it's not like I'm just going to keel over and die without it.
