For summer vacation I went to San Francisco (great city!), and I made a goal, not bother myself with PC Hardware for a week. After about 5 days I broke down and bought 3 PC mags, used my hotel's internet connection, and played Doom2 on my bro's Game Boy Advanced. Last year I was able to go about a week and a 1/2. Guess I have to add PC stuff to the list of THINGS I CAN'T GO A WEEK WITHOUT...
-PC Hardware
-PC/Video Games
-Comedy Central
-"Polishing my Rod" (some guys can't go a day,lol)
-Caffeine
-Instant Messenger

Anyone else have similar lists?

Now why am I <i>not</i> surprised about that?

If I'm away, I can go without all PC stuff probably indefinitely.

Seek guidance. I can go on indefinetly, I mean spending a month w/ friends is fun AND you'll come back and need to relearn to use a mouse.

All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening.

I was able to go about 2 weeks last summer w/out technology because I was rafting in Viginia with FRIENDS.

On a vacation with my boring FAMILY, I broke down.

that's understandable, family vacations aren't always exciting

It's fairly easy for me actually. I just have to be busy.

No problem getting away from the computer. After a while it is enjoyable not having it around.
I would have a problem going without TV. But I could do it.

I remember as a kid I had a really powerfull imagination, I was always distracted in class, i think I had ADD or something. But when I got older I couldn't entertain myself w/out thinking about lustfull thoughts, everything else was blocked out, my creativity took a plunge. I'm now really laid-back and focused but after you hit puberty, the little head takes over for the big head...

I cant go a week without

Food
Water

Other than that I think I'll do alright. So you were in San Fran did you check out any of the nightlife? I work in the city on Friday/Saturday nights.

Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.

Besides the usual drunk people, crazy hobos, cross-dressers, loud hobos, and deafening foreign music blasting from 100's of camera stores; nothing much.

San Francisco is a city that grows on you. I used to hate the city but everytime I went there I would like it a little bit more.

It doesn't sound like you even scratched the surface of the city.

Yes, I'm sure you have a very buff arm and skin 1 inch thick on your palm.

It's time to move on though. Get a woman.

That IS a bit much. Yeah, I think you need to go find a woman, too. And let's just dispense with the attempts at comparing your own hand to the real thing.

A week without PCs... no problem.
A week without THGC... no problem but lots of reading up work.
A week without music... more difficult.
A week without polishing my rod... very difficult.

My CPU fan spins so fast that it creates a wormhole :eek:

I was looking for less obvious answers. Everyone needs friends, food, etc.

I was just talking about the small annoying parts of the city. 90% of it kicked ass, it was nice to be in a place where white people are the minority! The cable cars, china town, and people casually using their laptops near a Wi-Fi station, good place.

I was at Austria and Czech Repugblic for a week. The TV was in German, same with Radio. There was also no computer. Only thing I have was my PDA and CD player.

Reply to Howard

My list:-

#1. PC
#2. Internet
#3. PC Games
#4. THGC

I can live witout these things, only when I have lots of good books to read, or in a vacation long away from home (I rarely have this kind of outing)

BTW I went 4 years without polishing the rod. Beat that!

Urm...
hmm.. for a week
Music, I might survive without, THGC, well if I get mentally ill again then yeah, gaming, been a while so yeah.
Family for me is a close thing though so it gets hard after more than a week not to see cousins or grandparents.
