2. While using the Internet, you often find you can’t stop and go offline, even when you think it’s time you should.

1, 3, 4, 5, 6.

Do you need a certain amount of them to qualify as an addict? Or are we all just screwed? lol
 
Guess I have a problem.. I'm addicted to internet.

I should join one of those groups.. like AA but for internet.
 
I imagine the internet is actually a life form of its own. Over the years it bided its time, waiting for us to finally discover it and think it's actually of our own creation. Then, the next phase was to wait for all of humankind to rely on the internet more and more.

Once we're all completely dependent on it, the internet will reveal its true colors and all shall be lost.
 
Can you play anything besides flash games and RPG's anyway?

And at least I have a life outside of the Internet. :p
