If the Internet crashed and NEVER came back how would your life change?

[Mudcat]

My first thought was how it would affect my work.

I did start betting offshore before it was widely available on the internet and it was a very different experience. Better in some ways, worse in others.

It was great how books were not nearly so much in lockstep with each other in terms of lines. But of course there was A LOT of phoning around to keep on top of lines.

Given a choice, I'm not sure which way I would lean, before or after. (I mean that strictly in terms of work. In terms of porn and other issues, I would be very upset to lose the internet.)

>>>Don't forget to catch me

Emmi, is that a message for fischy?

Sure, if you want it to be. By the way, I am waiting on an answer (see thread about you). Or is it too serious? Then don't feel like answering it.

 

[Emmi]

Emmi, are you just a teacher or also have dabbled into writing a novel? You are quite the romantic!

I am just somebody who is posting here, MrMonkey.

 

[betplom]

Wow well for starters I would've never met anyone on this board (in person or online)...including Robyn!

Wait!

You met Rubyn online?

I thought you were married to her?

 

[tullamore]

I have to go back to writing actual checks. I haven't written a physical check in 7 years.

 

[senco78]

I would be devastated...
no more useless info to read about that I wont remember 2 days after ingested it.

 

[Squirrel]

I'd hate it, would mean I had to leave the house more than once a day - screw that for a lark aswell.

 

[RayRay]

i would have to have tivo working around the clock on all my tv's recording all my tv shows... there would be so many more live poker games and that would be good

 

[l7ustin]

if internet would crash id say we would have much larger problems w our society.

but we would all prob be a lot healthier

 

[Swarmy]

We'd be alright. We'd go back to living in caves and poking bears away with sticks until someone invents a new internet.

 

[roguejuror]

Local bookies would again thrive...

Actually I don't think locals are that hurt right now

 

[Bread]

Wait!

You met Rubyn online?

I thought you were married to her?

Met on MySpace. She is the only girl I met on MySpace.

Squirrel!

 

[Enigma]

Significantly. Better not to dwell on it.

 

[Cougar Bait]

The lax cables hung from the skirt of her brain while lemmings feasted on their young. In hindsight the pretty Jews were smaller than the rest. But no one noticed. They kept paddling. Of course they couldn't return what they had taken. It wasn't a crime to begin with, merely an oversight.

 

[betplom]

The biggest problem will be trying to book a flight if the internet crashes.

Yeah, cause no one owns a telephone nowadays.

 

[Archie]

I would never have gotten to meet casper, cali, or stevie without the internet

RIP emmi and squirrel

Where would you get your porn? would porn dvd rental shops sprout up all over the world and be a booming business? would there be porn "red-box" type kiosks pop up all over the super market industry?

it would go back to the way it was
