Default So....its reported that Internet Surfing ..

....can make you depressed? Anyone agree?

Facebook / Bebo / chat rooms / friends reunited...I must admit I have a facebook page which I log in most nights but more or less to catch up with actual mates whO i am seening or random chit chat with mates over the pond..............I am not addicted, I tend to long in at work and surf lovely clothings sites and catch up on news however I have a healthy life - anyone feel addicted to net?

I think if your spending too much time on the net and not doing things in life you should be doing because of it its a problem, maybe possibly escaping your problems in real life and that can lead to you being depressed yes

When you have nothing else you do,the internet can become a bit addictive. I would know,don't think it makes you depressed though. Chatting to people on here cheers me up a lot of the time.

If you're that way inclined, anything can make you depressed. The internet isn't the problem. Some of the people using it are.

The net is a good escape, especially for watching docs and that. I think the kids growing up in the 90's were the last generation without the full force of the net and technology. I mean now, kids grow up with wii's that does their excerise for them.

I think Facebook/Bebo et al can be depressing as it is rather fake. It over-eggs the "friends" aspect of life. It can bring out the narcissistic aspect of ones personality.

Memo to humandkind: no one cares what music you like.

It's just a bit of fun bar the obnoxious scene kids who delight in taking daft pictures of themselves in pseudo emotional poses.

I have made quiet a few real life friends based off similar music tastes so uh ...

I agree.....I think you have to be that way inclined to become depressed!! I do believe people become obbssessed with facebook and all the pictures, messages etc saying look at me look how excisting my life is yadda yadda

I cherish the days with internet though ................. barbies and building go karts, conkers etc look at everything we had - no computer games. No kids come in and "log on"

Still enjot catch up with facebook buddies, wee bit of gossip through websites and fantastic shopping online that does not mak me depressed.........that makes me HAPPY XXXX

And there is Second Life
which has Lindon Dollars and you are in a Area
you can build.
I went on a Lesbian Island - and they told me to leave
I said no - like it here.

Then after another Warning
a Woman with a Stick bashed me and banned me from that Zone.
I was pushed into the Dark Air.

We could have a TiBB Island
you pick your avatar this is me

with Tink , she is in Ireland.

I have been led to believe by his dungeon exploits that Arista found being hit with sticks quiet pleasurable.

I had a go on second life a couple of years ago and had a blast. Not because it's good, but because people take it so seriously. I walked into the welcome area and took all my clothes off... then I walked over to a crowd who were chatting and said, 'I want your clothes, your boots, and your motorcycle.' Anyway, after they told me to ***** off or be banned I went exploring with my mate who was dressed like a porno version of a stormtrooper. We had some fun and when he clicked on one of the sexual position balls, I clicked on the other and bummed him within an inch of his life.

The day after started to get really funny as relationships were starting to form and I was being invited to some pumping fake parties. On the way to one of these parties I found an area that had a lot of boxes, and in one of the boxes was a penis package - to customise your character. I strapped on this 2D photorealistic penis that was about as big as my actual character and went on my way... naked as usual. For those that aren't aware, in Second Life you fly from place to place. I did this a lot once I had my 2D penis because it flapped and looked like a propeller. I used to float just above people and slap them in the face with my giant member.

Ahh, good times.

arist, how big is your cock?

arist, how big is your cock?

Live Bands Perform there
via avatars - that is amazing.

Yes many take it as a Second Life
and they stand there ground.

You can have any size Cock.

SkyNews have there own Island
I picked up a Free LCD
which I take around with me.
(you are not permitted to advertise unless you
pay Second Life)


I would think you are Ideal in Second Life.
you are the balance as so many are like slaves.


A TiBB Island would be Funny.


I could see Shaun and Zee having Fun.

Is this free to download? Sounds great. Especially some secluded TiBB sadomasochism island where Gonzo is free to hotwire motorbikes at will.

What's your name on there, arista? We'll hook up, have a drink, a dance, swap penises.
