It seems like some people spend more time posting on the internet about footbag than they do playing footbag.

depends on what day of the week it is. also, alot of the time, due to my soloness, instead of just one long session, i'll go out for like 10-15 minutes, then go hang out for a lil bit in my basement (where my computer happens to be)

I'm a total computer junkie. I wake up an hour before work, take about 15-20 minutes to get ready then spend the rest of the time on the computer listening to music and various other activities. I can live without TV and running water, but without a computer I'm hooped.

I can kick for a couple hours a day, the rest of that time is spent in a foreign country with no government or borders.

I'm in the same boat. I'm even starting to cop some slack over it from my room mates. That kinda shits me, but at least I'm paying my bills.

Im on the computer way more than shredding. Im just like Rob.

I don't even play games like counterstrike much anymore. I used to play counterstrike for like 7 hours straight and that was that. Lately I spend my time doing pretty much nothing, but I feel busier than ever. I dont watch much TV. Im on the computer so often but its just checking email, checking modified, checking ebay, checking some internet games that I play, or porn. I spend so much time doing nothing on the comp. Then I might play guitar 1 or 2 hours a day, but I play that using the computer too. On weekends my schedule just seems full even if it isnt. I spend an average of 0 hrs doing homework. About the only homework I have done at home all year is english papers (I always do them the night before they are due). I dont know what it is, but when it comes to school, I ALWAYS get things done. Even if I think "there is no way Ill be ready to give a speech", I always do, and I have straight As when grades come.

Have you ever planned a day around maximizing computer time? Or been watching a show and thought "This show is alright, hmm, should I just stop watching so I can get an extra hour in on the computer?"

Sorry to digress from the topic.

yep... if I know my dad is going to be gone on the weekend or something, I plan on a day of a lot of computer time...

Then I spend about an hour on there and run out of things to do on it...

Yet I still stay on it.. not doing much of anything... for about 8 hours straight, until I get in the shower around 2:30 8O

I've no choice right now... can't really kick..

But even under normal circumstances, I am... During school, there is no easy bagging connection, so I veg out with something.

its about even for me. im not online too much lately cause my computer doesnt have a connection. but im on in the kitchen here at least an hour a day i would say. maybe less. i play abour 2 or 3 hours every couple days. but i voted for being on the computer more. cause if i did have an internet connection on my computer id be there all the time.
as it is i spend a lot of time sleeping. doing absolutely nothing. and walking my girlfriend to and from school.

Lately I've been spending more time on the XBox than shredding, sleeping or anything else...first it was Morrowind, now Simpson's Hit and Run...it's the first good Simpson's game and it rocks! It's like a Simpson's GTA.

I spend way more time on the computer than shredding. I'm on like all night after school, then at like 10:30 pm for some reason, I always want to shred at that time for like at least 30min-and hour. But way more time on the computer.
