How much does the Internet occupy your time?

Whether it be for research, social... socialing(?) sites like Facebook, forums discussing your favorite hobbies or sites like Youtube, do you notice that it takes up a large chunk of your time?

Would you say that you would... actually need to think about performing a different activity if your Internet connection was offline for a while? Other than killing time playing video games and zoning out on TV naturally, since those are the usual crutches/safety nets.

These days it's about 25 hours a day. :(

If my Internet connection did go down, I would probably have to think about what to do next lol. But I can go without the internet; I've gone long stretches of time without even computer access or video games or other sorts of technology. The last time I had to do so was 10 days because I was out of the country, and the longest in recent memory was a month because my computer bork'd and I was busy with other things and didn't have time to fix it. I can quit when I want to, I just need a reason lol.

Lately I'm always on the internet. (Mainly here on OT.) If I couldn't be on here though, I might actually finish some of my video games and start some drawings.

Anytime I'm not playing a video game, I'm online, so I would say around 5 or 6 hours a day.

Like 8 hours a day since it is summer.

This.

When I am on vacation I would say about four, but when I am not it only takes a couple of hours.

13 hours a day if I'm trying to resist.
