To be completely honest, my internet consumption has gone down about 40% since I started remodeling the garden.

Id do what I did before the internet - read books, drive my car, actually force myself to meet up with people... Dress up cats and take photos of them and print them out with silly captions and put them in letter boxes

Actually finish my Accounting study without the distractions of WoW and iView

The only sucky part is that my job requires the internet to function. So failing it, I would have to re set up dial ups to the main offices for the software. Hmm... I really hated 56k...

I'd lose 50 percent of my communication methods, and all of my Steam games would suddenly be nothing more than wasted money.

Oh yeah. It would suck.

And that's not even mentioning the loss of all the information and all those unfinished webcomics and series no one would ever see the end of. Yeah. I'd rage.

I would be happy. Games would focus on single player experiences. Any multiplayer would be done in person, so you could turn around and converse in person.

online games, banking and eBay would be the big losses for me. everything else I don't really mind missing.

Damn, I am the only one here how actually remembers 1989?

Seriously, it'd be an inconvenience at most. And distribution of porn would, in fact, increase, because the sudden expansion of free time, nervous energy, and hands searching for something to grip instead of controllers.

The escapist is the biggest thing I use the internet for (I don't watch porn), also, I use it for checking pokemon related things, but I'd make do without it (heck, I might even learn dance/fighting/a second language/etc if I had that much free time (maybe all three combined (dancing-warrior-sign language???))
