How much money would it take... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

dawsongirl · 09-25-2001, 10:23 PM

for you to give up TV for a year?

How about the internet?

Bootsy Whoosh · 09-25-2001, 10:48 PM

Hmmmmmmmm.....<i>very</i> interesting question, dawsongirl.

TV: Probably several thousand. At least $3,000.

Internet: More...getting into at least 5 digits there...I might give it up for $10,000. But I don't know. I use the internet for so much, aside from message boards and e-mail. I do alot of my school work researching things on the internet. Having to actually go to the libraries to look for journal articles, etc. would be so much more inconvenient.

Lumpy: Did you go out for anything, Dud?

Dudley: Well, I went out for football, but I got my finger stepped on, so my mother made me quit.

Eddie: Well listen-- I went out for basketball and I got my hair pulled, and my mother made ME quit.

Dudley: It's not that I was afraid of getting hurt or anything; it's just that-- well, it's kind o' hard to play the flute with a busted finger.

Thats an easy question!

TV:$20.00.I have to give up television anyway.

INTERNET:$500,000,000,000.00! I would never give up internet for anything less! If someone was actually willing to spend that much that much just to keep me from the computer for a year I would agree...only because with that kind of money I could buy a castle and everything!

Wow! That's cheap! OK, the TV, I could do for the amount you are talking here, but it would seriously take at least 7 figures to give up the Internet for a year. I don't know if I could even do it! I have been online pretty much every day for the past 10 years! This is how I get my information, communicate with friends, entertain myself - not to mention it keeps me employed. Nope, I think it would take a great sum to get me off the Internet.
