    that’s it, last comment I make. Sat here typing and what’s the fucking point??

  • Amanda Mahoney says:

    I’m on the internet from the time I wake up to long after I “go to bed”. In the summer it’s 11-4am, and on school days it’s 7-4am, with little breaks sometimes in some classes. It definitely effects my grades and mood and stuff, but I get way moodier without it. Goodness gracious, I have it bad. I haven’t even been outside yet? this summer. Whether it be netflix or tumblr or facebook or twitter, I’m always on it.

  • Snowflake says:

    Yeah, but the only thing really about health is constant headaches from the bright lights, lack of? sleep, and sometimes some people don’t even feel like eating or bathing 😛 Since its summer, I am on from about noon, til 2am. During school, 3:30 til 9:30 o.o

    Imagine a therapy circle:
    “Hi, my names? Lydia, I have an internet addiction.”

  • jigilowman says:

    ok you got a few point.

    but let? me you is basically is same system.

    where do we get internet from TV cable jack Hd is basically a custom internet for TV. you still need at least 5mb to get? HD also new cable box has web browser,netflix aka streaming no matter what or does it appear out thin air.

  • ImSeeFly says:

    That is still considered the internet because you are technically streaming video from the internet. When we talk about TV, I assume we are referring to a television set within the? confines of a living room. There are portable televisions, but the amount of people who have those are far less than those who stream from the internet on their smart phones and tablets.

  • jigilowman says:

    TV isn’t portable. are you sure look? at Comcast xfinity or other you are way behind from technology

  • ImSeeFly says:

    The difference is that TV isn’t portable. People can? literally be plugged into the internet the entire day through their laptops, smartphones and tablets.

  • ImSeeFly says:

    how is it bullshit? Gambling is an addiction… Television can be addictive. Video games can cause psychological addiction. Why not the internet? Addiction doesn’t? always have to be through substance abuse.

    PBD—Psychiatric Bullshit Disorder—-the mindless ability to be influenced by Psychiatry that you have some ‘disorder’ and then sucking back all their prescribed drugs they will give you to ‘cure it’. Ha Ha Ha ? Right up there with BPBD, Big Pharma Bullshit Disorder that rakes in the multi-billions of dollars they made off you sorry suckers
