BlackDragon465 Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 Hmm many things. I usually spend most of my time on my favorite 2 sites.(GameFAQs,IGN) I also can get away from this blackhole called school.School sucks so much because not only is it not a challenge but they always teach stuff in the most boring way possible and then their is the second worst thing from school called homework(nobody needs that crap). Usually also makes me happier after getting from arguing with teachers and stuff and allows me to get a good night sleep after wasting a lot of time on it. The computer is one of the best things to have happened in this world.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittyLynn Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 [SIZE=1][COLOR=dodgerblue]My favourite thing about the Internet? Well I love IM because you can get close to people and learn new things.

Juu Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 [color=ff00cc] [size=1]I love the internet for alot of reasons. For one, you get to interact with people all over the world, and have normal conversations. I've met tons of great people on the internet, and some I care about just as much as my friends in real life. Another reason is, it gives you quick resources for homework, rather than having to go to the library, and dig around for books, and all that stuff. xx;[/color] [/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XeEmO Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 I really like to talk to people I know on AIM. It sure beats the phone, and you don't even need to pay long distance bills to talk to people. There's just nothing like the web and I wouldn't be able to imagine life without it. Ever since I got it 4 years ago there hasn't been a day where I had the chance to get online but I didn't.

amibasuki Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 [FONT=arial]downloading stuff is my favorite thing about the internet *is shunned*. that and being able to find just about any information about anything I would want to know. if I didn't have the internet as a resource, I wouldn't be into half the things I'm interested in, since I never would've heard/learned about it otherwise.[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(<AA>) Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 [strike]Pornography[/strike] Who typed that??? Well, the fact that... ummm... well I guess the how to draw manga tutorials, and the word discussion, heh, don't judge me... '_'; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 I spend most of the time on here trying to convince myself that the internet is actually fun and entertaining. It works sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Macaiodh Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 [color=darkblue][size=1]OB and the friends I've made here are my favorite things. Otherwise, I would have chucked this computer out the window by now because of my slow-*** connection (Powhatan doesn't have cable, only dial up, the bastards). I usually take out my frustrations on the mouse by slamming it against the table... poor little mouse.[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiroMunkie Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 [size=1]I would have to say the friends that I have met online is the best thing about the internet. Was it not for the internet I would never have met them, yet now there are even those who they would be very difficult to do without. Other than that I am able to access information about bands and such very easily, and with programs like Kazaa I can check out their music at the same time. So I pretty much enjoy the internet for what it was made for, [strike]porn[/strike] information. ^__^''[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luminaire Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 [color=crimson]I love alot about the internet. I especially love the wonderful friends I have met through the net. I have a way to escape real life for a little while. The information is wonderful too. Anything I look up can be found on the net. This information makes school a whole lot easier. Fanfiction is also good. Fanart, information on anime or video games I enjoy can be found on the net. OtakuBoards is on the net. I could never forget that, never. 'Tis where I started to get into anime and meet different people. Where I am able to speak my opinions and ideas. A wonderful place it is. ~Lumi ^_^[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorykoAngelcry Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 [COLOR=darkred][SIZE=1]Hmm. . I have a lot of favorite things about the net. Of course, my favorite would be getting to know some of the great people I have through AIM, the OtakuBoards, and through some other sources ^_^ I wouldn't trade most of the friends I have met for anything. Another favorite of mine is the ability to download songs, videos, games, etc. I have never really been big into music, but I have become a lot more into it due to the computer. Music sites and downloads. . all that and more. I still know nothing about music, but I love it *shrug* Ya ya, I'm an idiot. Umm. . I suppose the last favorite thing about the internet is the ability to play online games. Not only have me and my good friends been able to duke it out over a wide variety of games, but like the first reason up there, it's a great way to meet new people =) I guess there are more things that I am thankful for, but for now, these are my favorites =P [/SIZE][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syk3 Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 I think my favorite thing about the internet is meeting tons of people who have things in common with you. In the real world, this is limited to the people around you, which shape you in a sense to be more like them. In the internet, you can have any opinions on a certain subject that you like and you are guaranteed to find someone else with the same thoughts on one subject or the other. For example, I like anime. I have a small group of friends in real life that like anime as well, but a ton of others who don't. But on the internet, I can find TONS of people who like anime, and even ones with the same tastes in genre. I'd say that some of my best friends come from right here on the net, mainly because you can judge someone on their tastes and not appearence, and like I said before, you can easily find someone that likes the same things as you do. OtakuBoards is my main source of this information, and already I think I have made better friends here than in real life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sui Generis Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 [color=indigo]I'd have to say I have three things that I really enjoy about the net. 1)Otaku Boards. Its helped me grow alot maturity wise. I know that sounds stupid but it has. Also it has always been my escape from everything. I remember when I was grounded from the net for like 3 months. I couldn't stop thinking about OB and what was going on and wishing I could get on and talk to you people. 2) The people. I have met the greatest people on-line. People I would trust my life with. I know its corny as well, but my greatest friends are the ones I've met via the net. 3) The sense of security and confidence I have on the net. I mean in real life I'm scared to voice my opinion for my age and being 5'5 hurt me in the aspect that many people think I'm just a teenager ranting about how its un-fair. I have stuff to say and on the net I can. I guess that'd also go under the category of OB..[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fall Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 Really.. I hate the internet. I only go on it because I'm a member of so many boards I'd die counting them. I have people I can talk to, other than people in real life. That's the only reason I actually turn on the computer. That's pretty much my favourite thing 'bout the net.
