Sheesh, what a bunch of amateurs. If you are the average [H]'er, you can have all the above...at the same time. n00bs. :D

Just what would you give up if the Internet was taken away from you? For some, sex, alcohol, showers, and chocolate are on the list, according to a report by the Boston Consulting Group.

Right.... I wouldnt give up any of that for cell phones, internet, or tv (or all 3 combined). This country has gotten fat and lazy. Pathetic.
 
If the internet went away I wouldn't have any sex!! Wait..I mean I'd have less sex, ya less sex that's what I meant.
 
Alcohol - No fun but sure
Chocolate - Don't really like it anyway
Shower - Baths then
Sex - Something vital to the survival of our species, why is this even on the list?...
 
I would give up the internet for one boozed up horny chick with a chocolate bar right about now.
 
Most of the basement dwellers poled don't have sex anyway, are too young to buy booze and, haven't showered since the last WOW update.
 
From the Article said:
Interestingly, U.S. consumers also perceive the cost of the Internet to be $3,000 a year, even though most spend only $472 on applications and [/b]services[/b].

I am not sure how the internet only costs around $500 a year for most americans. I pay easily $80/month for just internet, or closer to $220/month for all my Verizon services.

Show me where I can get a decent connection for only $40/month.
 
Am I the only one who would pick showers if I could have only one item in that list?

You might be single, but many aren't so you've got to could those that split costs across a family. Gives you ~2k budget for a family of four, splitting a $50/mo cable line. That's still 1300 for programs and upgrades. Probably enough for a new PC every 3 years or so which is fine for most.
 
What if someone's only "sex" IS the internet (and right/left hands)? DUN DUN DUNNNNN.

Haha - but really, though, I doubt I could give up beer and/or sex for internet. Showers? Maybe - but then how would I expect to get sex? I mean, my wife DOES like my sweaty-man smell, but c'mon, I doubt she'd like it once it transformed into a sour, disgusting-man smell :p
 
I wouldn't give any of it up for the internet. Heck, I'd probably have a lot more time to do those rather than this friggin computer...

Nope... I'd be content with blowjobs and mutual masturbation with a hot chick.. I don't need booze to get women and my life doesn't revolve around getting hammered.

Forgot to add.... No hottie is going to want to be around you if you smell like a rotting corpse mixed with cheetos and masturbation funk from jerkin it to internet porn for the last decade of their hermetic existence.
 
I feel sorry for the people who would give up sex for internet, their lives must be miserable. I personally would give up internet for sex and never look back. Especially if it was a 1 to 1 ratio, hello 6 hours of sex a day. I suppose that if that happened I might miss the internet and being able to brag about my epic marathons on [H]
 
I'd trading my browsing these forums right now for some quality sex.

Just sayin'.
 
I wouldn't. I spent a little over two and a half weeks in in Paraguay and Argentina with my GF. I had not seen her in 8 months. We had ton of sex, drank a couple nights a week, and showered in some substandard showers. The internet was used maybe 3 times and that was to find places to go.
The most fun I have ever had.
 
I think a bunch of you get three out of four of those at the computer anyway - the hand lotion and mini-fridge give it away. The only reason you don't try the shower is water and motherboards don't mix. Either that, or you've realized we can't smell you on the forum!:D
 
I'd give up Internet for sex...

Aspergers is a bitch. I work out. I drive an awesome car. I have a well paying job... and I live alone in a huge house. None of that stuff matters without social skills.
 
Huh? I thought "No Sex, Alcohol and Showers" was how you could tell someone was on the internet too much.
 
I wouldn't give up booze for the internet but luckily I don't have to choose.

Where do you live?
 
Nothing.. if I lost my home internet connection I'd do something else.. go out somewhere else.. there was life before dial up, isdn, dsl, and fios you know. Read a book.
 
Don't drink, so that's a wash...no nookie, unfortunately, so that's a wash...but no way I'd give up showering/bathing. Sooner or later you have to interact with somebody, and it's a lot easier to do that if you don't go full stank.

For real... this guy's got it.

I have the internet right now. Where are the other 3?

Giving up the internet is sounding good to me right now. What would be missed? 4chan, reddit, people eloquently debating in the game chat? Yeah, I'd give up all that and more.
 
sex is a basic human need that is hard wired into you.

Anyone that would give up sex for the internet is either a virgin, very ugly, retarded, or fat! or maybe all 4 if so I feel for you.
