Default How would your life be affected without the internet?

Suppose the internet from one day to the next is no longer available.
Across the globe it simply ceases to exist for whatever reason.
How would it affect your life?

All of the time I waste on 2+2 would be freed up for productive use.

I would probably be a billionaire within the year.

I work for an ISP/web hosting company, so I'd have a lot of free time and nothing to do with it!

I do Web Design & Graphic Design so I guess I'd be 50% less busy.

I'd probably be happier and more successful. Not to mention, healthier.

Pluses: waste less time, no porn, healthier from spending less time on the computer.

Minuses: more difficult to communicate with friends who are out of town, more difficult to do my job (IT ... or maybe it would be easier depending on how you look at it), increased boredom, more of an idiot due to not being able to look up simple things
