I could quit if I wanted to... But I don't want to!


If the internet is considered an addiction when you use it socially, then so should the visitation of friends, as well as anything else you can do to gain pleasure... oooh yes, sweet sweet pleasure.


Err, anywho. We'd do anything we like over and over so long as we had the chance and also so long as it had no adverse effects (i.e. someone died every single time we did it. ¦¬Þ)

I'm not addicted, I just know what I like.

I don't think I'm addicted, at least not to the extent that I depend on it. There have been several times where I haven't been able to get on in a day or two, and one tme I wasn't able to get on except for once every other week and I didn't become depressed over it or anything...

I'm partially addicited, I think/guess. If I go a day without getting online, I wonder too much as to what's happened. GT is the first thing, then I wonder what gaming news has been said. That's about it for my life on the 'net. I don't play many games online as of right now. But sometime it will probably happen.

Eh, I go on every day. I plan to go on for only a half hour, end up on for like 3.5 hours. I read a lot of fanfics, so the majority of that time is just reading. Eh. I don't really care if I'm addicted to the net or not.

Must get more fanfics!!!!

God I don't need a scientific report to tell me that the internet can become an addiction. I mean anything can become an addiction if you abuse it; and like everything else just use it in moderation.
