addicted to the internet

I love the internet, I think it might be beacuse, I like feeling connected,

it's a way to interact with people with out a lot of the social akwardness or worrying about aperances.

But also I currently have like nothing else to do. No new videogames, and my old ones don't interest me much. running out of books to read, it's cold i don't want to go outside. I don't want to do my homework. we only have 10 tv channels. ect.

I am always checking my e mail and facebook, though there's never anyhting new.

I like this place and i like to post stuff, I really like sending and receiving messages from you guys

i also like fuse.tv

and i love reading random stuff on wikipedia, i can be there for hours there's just so much interesting stuff there.

I also love just looking at pictures and pieces of art at random sites, i love deviant art and photobucket, i guess i really kinda like to collect pictures, dragons fuzzy kittens witty icons, all that stuff.
I also watch a lot of tv shows and anime online , of course i like youtube

I only spend a max of about 4 hours daily on the computer, but if i go 2 or 3 days off the computer, i feel it, just itching to be online, gar.

I mean it's a nice place.

I love the isolation in the room, it's just a nice to record thoughts learn about other people random stuff while listening to music. I just think it's really nice.

well it's getting late I should really get off, I'll do my homework tommorow before class.


peace out all ya hommies

( I'm also very very white)

Smile


sweet raptured light, it ends here tonight

RE: addicted to the internet

You sound so much better at the internet then me. I mean I watch things from time to time. But a majority of the time only thing i get from internet is porn and web comics. Normally I cant find things I like on youtube but I have watched two seasons. As for anime heres a free anime site! anime6.org


If I had the option to live forever in misery, and loneliness, or to live a happy life with a definite end. I think I would take the first option.

RE: addicted to the internet

The internet is great for certain things, but sometimes I feel like it takes away a lot of the feeling of living, maybe it's just me, but I love the internets it entertains me and having been without the internets for a week now, I'm glad I'm back to being connectedBig Grin

Hey evanescencefan91 if your bored and like reading interesting things online try this site, it has some dare I say, damn interesting,funny pun,not really.but anyways I'm rambling, here's that site:http://www.damninteresting.com/


May the stars carry your sadness away,
May the flowers fill your heart with beauty,
May hope forever wipe away your tears,
And, above all, may silence make you strong.

RE: addicted to the internet

Modern computers and the Internet really can provide you with pretty much anything.

You can connect with people you would otherwise never have known of, you can watch video, make video, read, write, compose, play, buy things, sell things, download, upload and reload.

It stands to reason that since you can do more then people use it more.

RE: addicted to the internet

I've spent an average of 8 hours a day on the internet, for the past six years. That's 17,520 hours of internet time - a total of 730 complete days.


I know how you feel. Wink



P.S. - I also have an obsession with reading hundreds of random Wikipedia articles. At the moment, I have over 40 Wikipedia articles in my Firefox browser that I intend to read. I've so far probably read almost a thousand.

As for Youtube, I've apparently watched 1,369 videos while logged in. God knows how many videos I've watched while not logged in.

And, even though I've only got a "few" posts in this forum, I've made 7,479 posts on another forum.

Blech. My eyes hurt.

RE: addicted to the internet

hehe

ya wikipedia is great and that damninteresting place is pretty cool too

do you think that reading stuff on the computer hurts eyes more than reading a book because the computer guves off light, so after a while it must be like staring at a lightbulb

RE: addicted to the internet

I'm pretty sure reading text on a computer screen is more damaging than reading text off paper. I know this by my own experiences. Smile Sad

RE: addicted to the internet

yea, im addicted to the internet also. i spend about 4-8 hrs a day on it. i check my email often. go on some forums im on. check craigslist often for deals and what not. i like wikipedia also, i can be there for hours learning new things. more knowledge the better. i could lookin at youtube, screw and choppin my music on the pc, i just like the computer itself LOL.

but i really dont have alot going in the real world so thats why im on the internet alot. i dont tell my "friends" that im a internet savy kind of person, i dont want them to know that im on it for hrs a day and spending fridays and weekend nights at home in a dark room and me wrapped in a blanket for comfort watching some porn.

uhh, my life sucks dosent it and the girl i like dosent want to talk to me anymore and i didnt tell her my feelings. o gawd, what a life i live. sorry going offtopic, just ranting right now.

god bless/

RE: addicted to the internet

i'm addicted as well...

i was wondering if this was a bad thing

i mean i'm addicted to food as well....i'm CERTAIN that i'm addicted to the net though..had time away from it..i was going crazy


I’m selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle, but if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.
