      You know, there are so many things I could be doing but instead here I am drinking tea and surfing net. And hell, it's my day off, I thought today I could finish off a picture but I haven't even touched a pencil yet. And it's 9 P.M already! To keep it sort, I think I'm… addicted. Not to the tea but to all these Intertet forums. It's annoying.

      Anybody else feel the same?

        I can entertain myself with the internet, but lately it's been driving me crazy; I've been working as a seasonal at a job where they said in the interview "we might not have enough work for you to do." I have spent 90% of my time here killing time on forums and such. I used to love it but I really want to do something else… or at least take a break.

        Daily grind got you down?

          Same. But then again, I'm trying to finish up all those never-ending scanlation projects… @_@ Scanlation takes up 90% of my online time (which almost equals to free time), minus chat, forum, and read raws.

            aslong as it continues to entertain me I see no reason to stop, what is not work time for other than eating sleeping taking shits and having fun?

              Yeah, internet is cool for leisure, but fact is, if I spent less time here, I'd probably get more important stuff done, and I would read more books and draw more. I lament the latter the most.

                If it wasn't for this site, I would probably be done with my summer essay, the 2 required books, and probably 2 extra books for extra credit. I wonder if coming here was a good thing. 😞 I just like One Piece too much now.

                  Hehe, I figured this out a while ago. As long as the interwebs are running, I get no work done whatsoever. The book that I'm writing 2 weeks ago was 50 pages long, and I've been working on it for months, writing and re-writing, but never getting very far very fast. 2 weeks ago I discovered the tactic of "disable the internet for two hours". I'm now at page 150.

                  Ain't the internet grand?

                    If I didn't have the internet, I might actually start drawing again.

                          The internet always distracts me, whenever I'm supposed to be writing i'm usually collecting new pictures or looking around here.

                            Most my day is either spent on the Net or doing nothing. I'm truely addicted to the net. The time my modem died, being told i'd have to wait several days for it to be fixed-i cried like a little girl.

                              there can never be too much internet.
                              EVER.

                              nerding is a way of life.

                                  I really wanna get off the computer more, I just have to much to do on here at the moment, between writing, browsing forums, talking to friends, and watching One Piece I can't find time to get off =/.

                                    If the internet was off at my house, my life would consist of gaming, writing fanfiction, and porn. Though it's the same with it on, I just have more variety. =P

                                              Sometimes the internet is useful and sometimes its just boring. I guess it depends on your mood.

                                                I spend a marginable portion of time on the internet. Some days I don't even reach the computer, and I don't stress to go there. I'm not addicted, but I'm using some good time on the computer chatting, writing and reading manga.

                                                  I am so addicted to the internet.. but its not like I'll die if there wasn't interent for a month for example 😧 I like to take holidays from it sometimes.. the only thing I'll miss is a new one piece chapter every week..

                                                    sighs I…live on the internet. For 3 years; wake up; on it; eat; goto sleep; and repeat. Its really sad but I love the net so much! I remember back in Feb. when I lost my internet for around a month....I WANTED TO DIE!!!

                                                    Whenever I lose the internet, be it a day or a month, I wanna kill someone. o_o

                                                    I have no life. I also feel the keyboard has taken over the pencil for me and that makes me really sad, I use to do nothing but goto school, watch tv, and draw. Now I don't goto school, watch tv, nore draw. I left school 3 years ago and might be going back in a few weeks, cable was shut off. And I am drawing more lately due to me getting a scanner in 2 months for my birthday.

                                                    So with school, and drawing and possibly cable again around November I may be heading back to how life use to be, just, WITH internet in it. XD

                                                          Your not alone, I keep getting stuck in a message board about one single subject(Digimon, One Piece, 24, Cold Case, etc, etc, etc)

                                                          It's driving me crazy. I remamber I got banned from one message board and the admin refuse to answer my qustion:

                                                          Me: When are you going to unban me?
                                                          Admin: …...........
                                                          Me: Well? When?
                                                          Admin: .................
                                                          Me: Hello? Can you hear me?
                                                          Admin: ..............
                                                          Other user: I don't think he'll answer you
                                                          Me: Butt out ***hole
                                                          Admin: THAT'S IT!! YOUR BANNED FOREVER!!
                                                          Me: NO! I GOT MANY THINGS TO SAY!!

                                                          Now on this board I lost my editor rank an the AP admin refuse to answer my question. Man, it's driving me crazy.

                                                          Me: Let's ignore this user, why should we answer him?
                                                          AP Mod: Why are you flaming? That's a second strike
                                                          Me: Ahhh......I'll stop posting for 90 days
                                                          AP Admin: BTW your rank is revoked
                                                          Me: Dammit >_<
                                                          "PM Admin 5 times, answered two messages, realize it's just a Duja Vu"
                                                          Me: Know what AP Admin? Forget it, I considered myself a defeat....

                                                          Yes. I do need a 90 days break. And I do need to explore more of the internet then just a message board. But my life outside of the internet needs more attention then to sit on my ass everyday holding this device just to surf the now boring internet. I need more outside connection.
