What do you do when you lose the Internet? When my Internet goes away my reason for being on a computer is gone. I sit around wondering "wtf did people do before computers and the Internet". So, wtf do you do when you lose the Internet or your computer? If you had no computer/phone electronics at all that would allow you to be on the Internet, what would you do?

Play board games, read books, watch movies, play video games (not the online ones), etc.

Play board games, read books, talk to people, etc.

Yes, something like that, If I had company of someone liking board games, that would probably be one thing... Now, I even only have IP-tv, so if my internet broke, I wouldn't be able to watch tv...

With computer: Programming (why'd no one mention that...?), video games and other stuff

Without electronics: Go emo.

Without internet, I guess I would read, work out a lot more, see a lot more movies and spend a lot more time with family :)

I'd be far more productive if I didn't have any internet access. I seem to waste a lot of time just browsing various forums and the like when I know I could be doing something more constructive with the time.

When my connection does go down I tend to read, listen to music, play my guitar, watch movies, go for walks or spend time in the kitchen.

i totally agree, being connected to internet while not needing it, distracts me alot (hello porn)
when i lose my connection:
-do some serious coding
-play games and watch movies on PC
-go out with buddies and play CoD4
when i lose PC (usually use my mom, or dad pc):
-hang out with buddies
-walk by the nile by myself
yo homie i heard you like one-line codes so i put a one line code that evals a decrypted one line code that prints "i love one line codes"
eval(base64_decode("cHJpbnQgJ2kgbG92ZSBvbmUtbGluZSBjb2Rlcyc7"));
