Mundane & pointless: what if there were no SDMB...?

If there were no SDMB, what would you spend your time doing, instead?

I don’t mean general free time, I mean the time you normally spending browsing / posting on SDMB…

For me, I would probably be:

Luckily, the SDMB keeps me away from most of these things, usually!

How about you?

I’d be reading, or doing crafts.

Both of which I do anyway, but I would be doing a whole lot more of them if not for the SDMB.

I SHOULD say doing housework, but since I avoid it like the plague, I probably wouldn’t and I don’t want to prevaricate. :smiley:

Either play more computer games, do more work (I really doubt that), or dump a pillow on my desk and get more sleep.

I wouldn’t be married, if it weren’t for the SDMB.

Really, Ginger? Maybe this thread should be titled “Why I am thankful for the SDMB” !

I wonder how many other people met their partner here?

Well, there’s Airman Doors and MsRobyn; TruePisces and Verrain; UncleBill35 and Geobabe; iampunha and fizzestothetop; racinchikki and Gunslinger; UncleBeer and porcupine; and matt_mcl and Potter. Just off of the top of my head, you understand.

How could I forget Miss Creant and MrCynical?

I haven’t read any of there posts, so I’m going on their usernames entirely:

They are going to have some fun children! :smiley:

Wow that’s a lot of people! I never knew the SDMB brought so many together. It really is like a big community. :slight_smile:

I don’t think I would be on-line as much as I am. Probably only use the Internet like a big encyclopaedia-cum-research centre, and that’s it. Maybe a few emails (my list of RL friends who are also on-line is small).

If the SDMB hadn’t ever existed, I wouldn’t have had so many tears, some heartache, some rages against injustice. But, nor would I have had so much fun. :slight_smile:

I’d probably be doing something that I should be doing, like cleaning or exercising or bringing about world peace. But the boards are so much more fun. :smiley:

Shudder the thought!
