I think I vastly underutilize what the World Wide Web has to offer. My go-to pages are GMail, Facebook, and T-Dub. Running in the background, I have either YouTube or Pandora or Playlist. On game days, I open up several sports and sports analytics tabs. When I'm bored, I'll go to Google Scholar and read a random paper, usually on statistics or sociology. Finally, around 80% of my time is spent on porn.

Is there anything I'm missing?

cancel your TV

3/8/2010 11:01:40 AM

i think thats about the same as me, minus the google scholor

3/8/2010 11:02:23 AM

hey look another cheap bastard saying cancel your tv

"Hey guys come over and watch the game at 640x480 at 12 frames per second on my laptop. Derek, you bring the chips. Rick, bring the High Life. Its gonna be insane."

Why? I get free HD over the air.

I love Hulu and justin.tv!

3/8/2010 11:06:19 AM

nothing wrong with cutting down on the toys you own

not owning a huge tv with a sports package != being a cheap ass

3/8/2010 11:06:32 AM

the most expensive thing i own after my car is a guitar amplifier

which literally does nothing unless i make an effort to create something with it

i think that's pretty rad

3/8/2010 11:08:25 AM

Never said you need a 73 incher and Sunday Ticket

Just don't cancel ESPN and still expect to hold the same social weight by watching the playoffs on your Lenovo

Nothing wrong with having a nice TV and a sports package but as far as "social weight" goes this is serious caveman currency

3/8/2010 11:10:07 AM

We run in different circles

Those things matter to me

3/8/2010 11:11:35 AM

the OP's internet usage pretty much matches mine 85% of the time


I do gmail chat, usatoday puzzles, and look up random stuff alot, but still it is all time wasting stuff

rethink your life because if either (1) you run out of money or (2) your brain even slightly develops, you're going to end up extremely unhappy come 40

3/8/2010 11:12:33 AM

i look down on people and order 45s you've never heard of

often at the same time

In addition to the OP, my webbage:

-craigslist and ebay, ~30 minutes daily
-twitter, ~30 minutes daily
-web comics, 11 visited daily
-digg, ~2 hours daily

I get bored a lot at work.

3/8/2010 11:20:42 AM

hulu is starting to drop some of my favorite programs. I guess I'll have to use my DVR again.

3/8/2010 11:29:54 AM

i sure as fuck would laugh at you if you wanted me to come over and watch march madness on your thinkpad.

pretty sure most the games come over the air in crisp HD for free, so unless someone completely didn't have a TV period it shouldnt be a problem.

I'm pretty sure "cancel your tv" was more meant to be taken as "cancel your cable/whatever subscription" and not throw out/don't buy the physical object.

You and the quagmire types can have fun ignoring any and all athletic exploites

I, unfortunately, cannot

i either go to a bar to watch sporting events or to my buddy's place who has a nice tv

it doesn't exactly establish a social hierarchy though, because owning a nice tv just means being able to amass resources and being willing to spend them in that way

3/8/2010 11:49:56 AM

Its more of a priorities type of thing

You could say 1000 is a lot to spend on a television

But I could probably look at your life and find 1000 where I would deem it excessive in other areas

I just personally value a nice television more than you do

3/8/2010 11:51:50 AM

If its a big game, ie Panthers playoff games, NCSU tourney games (lol) I have to watch at home

Bars, friends' houses, etc are cool if you don't really care about the game

But if I really care about the game, I have to be in the zone chief

Hell I've probably paid for my TV just based on how much less I spend on beer to drink at home compared to paying bar prices

haha this is an interesting cost/benefit analysis. Should do some arithmetic and show how many nights pay for a TV

Dude, just because Slave Famous is black doesn't mean you have to try and talk like him. Racist

3/8/2010 11:54:40 AM

I still got out drinking a lot, just not to specifically watch a game

So I'm not really saving any money

But there is something ironic about having a 60" laying idle at home while you crane your neck to watch a 32" inch with no sound from 20 feet away at the bar

3/8/2010 11:58:35 AM

lets see (rough numbers here)

$15 18-pack can last 2 days

2 days at the bar...bar tab probably like $60

$22.50 per day savings towards television

$1100 TV / $22.50 = 48.88888 days

If you are an alcoholic, you can get a "free TV" in less than 2 months!

Yeah but you still go to the bar

dang, im the exact opposite, i want to go out for big games with a big rowdy cropwd and yell at scream at the tv

then again, going out in raleigh for a game is way different than going out down here, as i found out yesterday being the only state fan at a bar with no sound for the game
