So ive been living on my own for about a month now, with no phone line, hence no internet. I sold my computer, hence no PC games etc, but i bought an apple laptop to substitute (no games).
Living on my own is awesome. I have loads of time to myself, and i fill it all up nicely with all sorts of things that i never used to do because i used to just sit on the internet posting on this board or playing games online. Now i make a concious effort to go out 4 or 5 times a week to see my friends and family, and its much healthier. I only post on this board at work now.
Point of the story is that theres more to life. the end.

I'm sorry aphextriplet, but do you mean to say that you used to think that there was no more to life than the internet, this board, and playing games online?

of course you are correct, sir. you can't have spent all that much time on here if you didn't expect a tirade of sarcastic abuse to follow such an evangelising message however.
there is more to life than this board, but there is little more to my work. so i post here all day! but in the evenings i engage in all manner of wholesome activities, running around in meadows singing and suchlike.

yeah i knew i'd get a load of abuse, i was kinda looking forward to some witty comments. Still waiting ;)
Seriously though, i didnt think this board and the internet was all there is to life, i just fell into complacency and did fuck all with my time for the last few months. It took a little shake up of things to snap me out of it. I say we burn the internet to the ground.

So what do you think we'd have to burn down to destroy the entire internet? I think it would be stored in something secret, like a biro or something, to stop people finding it and burning it down.

I've been living on my own for like 1/2 year now, and the reverse happened to me (go out even less often and do introverted things more). Internet socializing is the best... introversion and socializing in one.

Living alone is definitely wonderful, though I've never done it. I cherish every moment of every week that my family spends away from me, gives me a taste of it. But, like wMw says, it only increases my introversion, because then people leave me the fuck alone and I can, if I want to, eat dinner upstairs naked. I don't, but I'm just saying, if I want to. I could.
The most important thing about being alone is listening to music REALLY loud, because you can. I don't do it when I'm not alone, it's just rude.

Do you just sit your naked ass down on your chairs? Don't you find it cold? Or maybe you have nice flowered seatwarmers like we do.

it's cold at first but if you sit down really quickly the sensation is almost pleasant.

i plan on moving out next month after 6 years living with a college buddy who's autistic...not recomended!
i can't wait to have my own space but the rent is gonna be enomous compared to what i'm paying now..... its a finance/piece-of-mind trade-off
first thing i'm gonna do is NOT have a tv...
