addicted?

Forums: The Bar,

[39] Though that may change when I move from having a 2mb connection (at home) to being on a shitty old 56k modem... I used to spend heaps of time online and then I rediscovered the real world... Having said that I really like the convenience of having internet at your finger tips - I use it alot for researching all sorts of things (and wasting time researching pointless things)...

Yeah

48. Lower than I was expecting, but I think that's primarily due to the fact that I'm only obsessed with one particular site, rather than the internet in general.

48 too. For the same reason, I suspect.

i got 45.

lower than tclak??!

OMG!

40 - ohhhh, i'm so disapointed with that. I reackon it would've been higher if I hadnt have actually started doing my homework recently.........

I got 40 as well. This probably has something to do with the fact that my work doesn't really suffer because I haven't got enough to do ever.

68.
'doh. good year though:)

I'm pleased at least one person trumped my score.

I did too, but there is no way I am posting the result

I beat noizy!

But I doubt that's a good thing.

52 - do you reckon they just replaced the words 'Crack' and 'High' with 'Internet' and 'Online' respectively?

I think maybe they could replace "Internet" with "NZmusic.com forums" in some cases. Or "refresh livejournal friends page". Or "obsessive need to check my email to find out once again what new science techniques I can use to increase my penis size" .

//8. How often does your job performance or productivity suffer because of the Internet?
//9. How often do you become defensive or secretive when anyone asks you what you do on-line?
//13. How often do you snap, yell, or act annoyed if someone bothers you while you are on-line?

Can imagine Teina typing away industriously, and Dust wanders past for coffee, and oh-so-casually looks over her shoulder; Teina oh-so-casually blocks the screen from his view and frantically clicks "Alt-tab". Dust says - were you on nzmusic.com? Teina says no! never! stop accusing me! never! and Dust says well, errr, isn't that your job?

I like it when I get to do stories on NZ musicians (next issue - 'Here come the bulletholes' story) so that I can pretend like I'm actually SUPPOSED to be here all the time that I am.

34. Funny that you should have found this site today. Yesterday I got disturbed by a phone survey. I always find it fun to do these things, but it was all about internet usage. And the most frequent response was "daily", which I ended up having to answer for just about everything...

With an exact score of 50 I join the 50+ club. People with real problems.

[45]

i thought it might've been higher than that..

i got 26

'You are an average on-line user. You may surf the Web a bit too long at times, but you have control over your usage.'

great...

I got 32, same result.

[38] - thats the same as well

49, same result.

59.
i want to know who is in the 80s or above.

Your Score: 51

Results:
You are experiencing occasional or frequent problems because of the Internet. You should consider their full impact on your life.

ummmm, that is totally wrong!!!

ahhh, denial. The symptoms manifest themselves so quickly...

We need to form a on line 12 steps chat room

nah, I'm done with chatrooms

[60]

Maybe now is the time I should consider cutting down.

theres no need....you know if your a net addict when you get your own domain name for $32 at orcon.

59. Thought I would get higher, but..... I'm not gonna argue.

well I got 60. I tell all of you, if the internet had never been introduced to me life, I would be: smarter, more developed, more social, feel better about myself, more learning, more time doing things that were important. I could go on and on and on. Without the internet, I would be perfect. The last year I have completely wasted, I feel that my life has not advanced at all. I feel that the net is holding me back from my goals. I need to cancel my internet connection so there is absolutely no temptation. I am cancelling my internet service soon. then I will finally be free.

bro, your internet connection has ruined my life.

wait, aren't you that guy that works in a bag making factory?

i think you may have me confused with your dad.

your funny

sweet jesus - 56 and i through id skore 'undred.

36.

That's much lower than expected

17 woo hoo you are all geeks and i am not.

18.

Astonished i even bothered to take that test....and to post the result.

20.

Not quite as not geeky as manamana... but still quite not geeky. The internet is very good for killing downtime at work. That is about it.

holy shit mine is higher than i thought...

22

and this is where i realise that perhaps i'm in the wrong industry :P

*backs away slowly*
