    [​IMG] i pressed the "turn off the internet button" in the middle of my office. If anyone saw they may have been as scared as me LOL. It was kind of like the whole, "do not press this button" syndrome. I had to press it to see what would happen.

    I like the whole post it note idea. It could be quite funny, coz you might end up walking past someone you were chatting with but not know who they were...Oh, you could do that anyway....didnt think that one through properly :shake:

    [​IMG] We would have to play the online games as pen&paper styles, via mail. That would take some time!

    Good idea...but Taluntain would have to walk around taking off notices with spam and flame on it and then copy it, then replace it with a duplicate with some fancy words written under it.

    BTW: I PRESSED THE BUTTON! That was the scariest thing of me life it is.

    Nah. There's still lots of people in this world that don't have a thing to do with the net, and never will.

    I'd probably just sit in front of my computer and stare at the desktop for an hour or two every day.

    I would use a word processor and PRETEND I was posting on SP. Well, that and cry. Oh, and play single-player games.

    I'd probably be a lot more interesting to my friends. And maybe stop getting late slips in the "homework" issue. :p And then, shopping with my friends. :)
