This exactly! When I was young there was no internet (and least none to speak of) and everything was fine. It's easy to become addicted to things that are fixtures of everyday life, but it can be overcome. The only things that can't be overcome are the things that are now done only over the internet. For those who do their jobs online or live in remote places where everyday services are not available, internet is necessary. Lots of brick and mortar stores and suppliers of basic needs have boarded up their windows and gone strictly online, something that was never a problem in the old days. But now that the complexion of things are leaning more and more toward an online existence, sadly many of the simpler (and better) things are going that way as well.

Ooh! Cheese! I love cheese! Give me the cheese and no one has to get hurt! I love every kind of cheese I've ever tried. I especially like the creamy, mild white cheeses and the nasty pungent ones you can smell from across the street. Yes, that even includes Limburger and Liederkranz, which go great on rye with a slice of onion (just don't plan on getting close to anyone for a few days). Cheese is so versatile, it can go on or with just about anything. Melted, sliced, shredded... Okay, I'm off to the kitchen now, bye!

Yoda would be my ideal teacher. But aside from the little green dude, I would want someone I could respect and who is knowledgeable about his/her subject. They don't have to be sugary and sweet, but not an ass with a power trip either. When it comes right down to it, I'd rather be my own teacher because only I know exactly how I learn and what works best for me.

Yeah, I would go and try it out. I watch lots of ghost hunting shows on TV and it's hard to be completely skeptical, but I don't just swallow everything I'm told either. I'd like to see for myself what's in some of these places and do the stuff I'm always yelling at the TV screen for the ghost hunters to do "Get a damn head-mounted GoPro on!" "Get those blasted EMF pumps rolling!" "Use all of your equipment all the time, don't just wait until you missed a great opportunity and try and recapture it later!" Of course, it's easy to act all cavalier to hit the trenches, because it would be scary, but I'd be too curious not to try it. I'd have to scope it out in the daytime first though, just to know if there are any weak floors or other potential dangers involved.

Seems to be a lot of pizza lovers here. I'm no exception. It's my favorite food, and with so many varieties I could easily eat it every day. Sometimes it's fun just to try out different weird toppings just to see how it tastes. There are other things of course, like anything deep-fried. Steak is also a big contender, especially if it's char-grilled.

I absolutely do not drink alcohol. I can't stand the taste of it. It's like taking medicine. The only exceptions would be a little wine on occasion to help me sleep or if I'm feeling under the weather. I do like the smell of alcohol though. I wish it tasted as good as it looks and smells. Then I'd have a barstool with my name on it.

Something with lots of melted cheese. An omelette maybe. I could go for a nice rare steak too, but that goes without saying.

I've been in all but a handful of the states, and lived in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Massachusetts, Oregon, Nevada, the midwest and California. I've been to Mexico and Canada as well, but never overseas. I try to travel whenever I can afford it and just got back from Walt Disney World in Florida.

I've got a cold right now. I caught it on vacation recently and it just won't go away. Green Tea seems to be helping though so I'm drinking it by the gallon daily, which means I'll be camping in the bathroom for a while too. Too much info?

Chicken with barbeque Shake-n-Bake, hash browns and green beans.

I'm enjoying a large can of Sno-Berry flavored Peace Tea. It's got lots of peace symbols and hippy graphics on the can. I have a cold and this is going down sooooo smoothly! It's making me feel peaceful.

That sounds absolutely divine!!! I'm trying that tonight for sure! Before I heard of this, my go-to snack would typically be hummus on crackers or anything I could wrap in a tortilla. A quick egg scramble with some peppers and cheese (and whatever is lying around the fridge) makes a nice snack and can also go in a nice wrap.

I'm in my mid twenties. I'm thinking now that I should've lied about my age when I applied for my job, which is a role based on age and appearance.

Usually not too often. Maybe once or twice a year. I'm having a cold right now and I expect the next one to hit around Christmas, after all, that's kind of a holiday tradition with me.

I just got back from a lovely vacation but I caught a cold right at the end of it. So I feel like crap, but I'm happy at the same time.

Just English and a very little German. I can't practice on Rosetta Stone anymore because my computer's sound thingy doesn't work, so most of what I learned is rusting away to oblivion in the back of my brain.

My list is fairly short compared to the others here, but here it is: Tiny Toon Adventures Animaniacs Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers Looney Tunes There are a few others of course, but these are the ones I really watched a LOT.

My favorites were "Hooray For Pig" and the Frog and Toad books, specifically "Frog and Toad Together" and "Frog and Toad Are Friends." I loved those books and still do.

In order, from favorite to least favorite, roughly: Spirited Away Howl's Moving Castle From Up On Poppy Hill Whispers of the Heart Kiki's Delivery Service When Marnie Was There The Secret World of Arrietty My Neighbor Totoro Castle In The Sky The Cat Returns Ponyo Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind Porco Rosso The Wind Rises Tales From Earthsea Princess Mononoke Grave of the Fireflies Princess Kaguya

Exactly this. When I was younger I had a hard time dealing with depression. It was the easier road than trying to fight my way out of it all the time. Eventually I found that self-pity was a trap; it's a way of gratifying myself with pity, but it also made me re-live and re-think all the stuff that made me upset, so it just kept recycling through my mind. That got to be a habit, and breaking any habit can be hard. Once I started making a point of putting on a brave face and finding the good in things and doing good for others, even when it took an effort, I started forging new pathways in my brain, created positive habits and adopted a different outlook. If you look for the bad in anything, you will find it, whether it's really there or just imagined. But there is good everywhere. It just takes an effort sometimes to let it sink in, especially when you have a negative attitude. It's worth the effort to find the good though, that's where the real difference in life is found.
