    I just went 12 days without internet. During the holiday season, when I had time off work to stay home and relax, And my internet got cut off. I don't have cable, because anything I need is on the internet....and my hard drive which had a ton of music/movies decided to stop working the same week.

    I can tell you, that for as long as internet is available, I will pay for it.



    It fucking sucks without internet no matter how much I say I could live without it, I never will unless forced too like the past two weeks!

    Hell and back! I just kissed my screen.

    I went forty years without internet once. But then again, for most of those years, THERE WAS NO INTERNET!

    Good god, what would a person ever do? [​IMG]

    That's why I said recently.

    The first 17 years of my life i had none either. And I was happy, fine, had an awesome childhood and am grateful for everything.
    Totally grounded and close to my family, i consider myself lucky for what I have in my life that's not related to computer/internet.
    ..but the ability to learn, grow, and entertain yourself at your fingertips is a huge luxury that, like driving, I would never want to go without again
    And I will pay what I need to in the future to have that.

    If I was forced to for some reason, like a year without it for a million or whatever, I know I COULD make it work.
    ...but with the given option I would never choose to be without the internet again in the history of my life.

    Without living through it, I thought it would be nothing and who cares I could use my phone for whatever, dvds or just what I had here. But after two weeks, I realize how much I use the internet for. Just to be able to communicate with people and send/recieve work/files is something that is overlooked when it's a daily simple occurance.

    I'm sure I would suffer if my internet was cut off for two weeks, but I live in a pretty remote area. it's not easy to even get radio signal where I live.

    recently? maybe an hour when i had to fill in as a lifeguard. not too long ago, i could have said i was without every time i drove somewhere, but now i have a smartphone so that's not true anymore.

    within the last few years, i've only really been without internet a couple times for a week or so after moving to a new place, while waiting for the cable company to come hook it up. not my most recent move though; the cable guy actually showed up on the day i moved in.

    the longest break i've had after i got internet for the first time was around 2 years. i also had no tv during that time. i did have video games and pot though, so i was happy.

    Aside from the first 10 years or my life, about two weeks. I've gone without it for longer voluntarily... or, rather, just forgetting about it because I didn't need it. Usually in the summer. This includes my smartphone too. They're both nice to have but they're not my life
