Dad's not taking the modem away anyway, hello internet.
« on: September 15, 2011, 12:40:16 pm »

Sorry, my ill tempered father got really pissed at me. And now he is taking his modem back to work wich means i am cut off from the internet and any kind of sociality untill one day when i finally escape this hellhole.

Good to know you, goodbye internet. I really hope he is not being serious about this, but i am not on later in week, well so long dear friends.


So, false alert, sorry for attracting attention. Its impossible for me to know when my father is actually meaning business or if he is just throwing empty threats at me.

You must sneak a modem into the house by disguising it as a banana.
And then you must eat it to make it more convincing.

Anyway, I hope he isnt being serious. And do you really have no other access to the intrawebz? Not even in a library or somewhere?

I am sorry if i am being dramatic, and you probably dont give a damn wether i am going to disappear or not.
Just came from the kitchen, he seems really serious, but i am still not sure, i am quite sure i am disappearing within the next few days.
If i am not gone in a week, i will just lock this thread. Just thought in case, that it would be polite to say goodbye after all what the internet have done for me.

While I might not be directly affected by you dissapearing, I still wouldnt like it if a member of the community dissapeared and I think that qualifies as caring.

Good luck to ya and take my banana suggestion into consideration.

But... can the internet tube waves pierce stomach tissue?!

To be blunt, we don't give too much of a damn. But we're still a small community, and small communities stick together! Also, the banana suggestion might actually work, try hiding a router inside of a watermelon or something. Say it's comfort food for the loss of your close friends. I hope you'll see this at a library or something, you should seriously try the watermelon suggestion.

... wouldn't a watermelon's juicy delicious innards completely ruin the router, though?

a modem is not that expensive, neither is internet in this modern day and age.

That really sucks. If your dad's serious, that is. I'm having trouble imagining why he would just take the modem; you'll still be paying for internet service, at least for a time.

You could just buy another modem in a while, if he actually needs that one for work. This seems like a punishment currently; in a while (week probably) he might allow you to do so.

And if it matters, I'd give a damn about your disappearance. You're an active member of the community, and a rather unique one as well. The name DrPoo tends to brighten up my mood a bit.

Put it in a ziplock bag indside of a ziplock bag. And make the watermelon is hollowed out a little and discreetly cut in half.
