My Internet has been extremely slow today and I'm frustrated; I want to slam the mouse.So when your Internet is slow do you get mad? I remember when I had Dial-up and you could basically take a good nap and wake up and the page would almost be loaded.

It annoys me even though it happens so rarely. Take a break if it's getting annoying... you should only be annoyed if it happens regularly and you aren't getting what you are paying for.

Yes it does very much. I wish we had Verizon FIOS *drools*. I dislike my ISP a lot now because I have fallen victim to traffic shaping most likely do to my excessive bittorrenting. They've always been doing it, like where I would get 300 kbs down and 80kbs up tops, then for a while they lightened up and my max was 500 kbs down and 80kbs up, but now its way down to 30 kbs down and 30kbs up :(

I'm used to having DSL. Right now, I'm in Middle of Nowhere, Tennessee, where all they have is dial-up. This is horrible. :cry:

The worst is when I click on a thread that has a picture but no warning...I might as well go for a walk around a field for a while while it loads.

I got T1 and I'm loving it! If you can tolerate 56k. then I admire you, because that stuff sucks, there was no way I, or anyone I know, could tolerate it, the second High-speed internet was available, my family just POUNCED on those deals.

I had a 1mb connection some time ago, then I visited my grandma and her internet speed is 56kb/s.

I almost killed someone that day.

I have 8mb now.

When I was home on leave, I was forced to use my dad's 56k dial up connection. While it felt somewhat similar to my idea of what being brutally gang-raped by ogres would feel like, my solitare skills were considerably honed. I managed to play 2 games before my myspace page would be half way loaded.

When my dial-up is actually WORKING properly, I've learnt to become patient with it.....so I guess I'm use to it. But on the other hand, it kills me that I have a severe inability to download all the anime I want :P

Well, my computer is really fast, so when I'm at other people's house and I go online to a slow internet, it gets aggravating. I'm spoiled when it comes to fast connections :|

When the Internets are slow, I scream. Like, really loud.
