It depends, but mainly I can't stand being without internet.
Well the only time I actually get off is when I sleep/go out.
I'll get easily bored if I don't talk to someone online anyway. ♥

You ever want to see me read a book? Cut the Internet cord outside my house. I'll come charging at you with something blunt and throw you in dog shit. I've gone without it for half a year before and I can do it again.

I honestly don't have too much trouble going without the internet. Sure, I love it and use it for hours every day, but I don't mind using my time to spend with friends, play games, shoot photography, watch movies, travel, party, whatever.

The longest I've gone without it is probably a month while moving into a new apartment. I just didn't have the money to get a connection right away.

I could probably last a month. Just burn through my video game backlog and watch TV a lot more. Maybe pick up reading again if I get super bored.

No internet ? You must be jowking, like saying we ran out of oxygen.
Joking aside

No, I cant. I do fun stuff on the net, I need to get my modules, requirements and notes from the net (university). I talk to my friends and my "love one" on the net unless we are near. Day without net is like a 24 hour sleeping day :)

Unless its an out of town vacation :D

A month or more. Like when I'm on vacation somewhere else, I can't go on internet. I don't really mind it that much (I do when I'm bored, like when walking in the museums). Soo.. I guess I could go without internet for like.. 3 months. But I will tell the truth, sometimes I do miss the internet if I haven't been long on it, mostly because I want to watch anime.

I don't have internet in my apartment yet. I lasted 3 days before I cracked and found a public library with Internet access. But then again, I don't have anything - no TV, no friends in the area (I just moved out), it's hot and humid outside and there's no A/C, not much money to see movies and such, and I don't start work until tomorrow. SO YEAH. I'm dying because there's nothing to do and I feel so disconnected from the outside world. IT SUCKS.

If I have other things to keep me occupied, I could probably go for over a week without Internet.

I'll be realistic, probably LESS THAN A DAY.

I actually have a legitimate excuse, I have some of my College courses online, I need to log on almost 3 times a day so I can be updated on any new assignments, and of course to "study".

Either way, it's almost impossible to go more than a day without internet.

A week or so. I really do love the internet, and I'm in a long distance relationship which makes staying in touch super important. That's basically what I use it for, chatting and keeping in touch with all my long distance friends and my boyfriend. When I'm away I atleast have my phone. It's not quite the same as a video call on msn messenger, though.

I can go a month and rather dislike using the Internet unless it is to download stuff, read game faqs, manga, watch anime, or listen to music. Recently went without it for a good month. It was awesome. Just played Earthbound games, listened to music, and watched Legend of the Galactic Heroes. I could prolly go a year, though, aside from very menial things and probably will do so in a year when I move to Europe for a while.

As I was growing up, I got into trouble a lot, and when I did my punishment was to not leave my bed for a day/week/month.. etc. So I've been accustomed to entertaining myself without internet/books/tv. Mainly just a lot of thinking and... more thinking.

So I know I could go without internet for a long time as I'm used to finding other means of entertainment. However, my job is a Work-From-Home Computer Programmer, so I were to do this I would lose my job and my source of income. :P

So Job-wise : Couldn't go without it for less then a day.

Obsession-Wise : Could prob go without it for a good few months before I start getting curious what's going on in the cyber world.

Less than 1 week I guess.
I turn my computer off at night and sometimes I don't feel like waiting for it to turn on for several days. So it's basically laziness that keeps me off the internetz.

If I was with my video games, a long time. How ever long it took me to beat them all.
If I was without both, perhaps a couple of days.
