What would you rather be without???
 
Now if one of the following weren’t invented, which one would you choose to be without?

ODDBODD 02-14-2002 06:55 AM

radio ofcourse....and whos the idiot who chose tv?

Cool Paramite 02-14-2002 08:14 AM

My vote: clock.

ODDBODD 02-14-2002 08:31 AM

actually stop and think, do you think the world would really be great if no one could tell the time.... Who needs radi when you have a sterio and TV?

I think: chat boxes!
Forums are OK but chat boxes....

Surprisingly, TV, as I have been doing with out it quite nicely for the pass 2 years. In fact the only thing I use my TV for is to play video games...thats it.

Clocks are pretty much vital, these days, though... Hell, I miss enough lectures WITH them, I wouldn't stand a chance without a clock... Like if I leave my watch at home, I might as well not bother even trying to get to lectures in time, as clocks aren't exactly prolific round here... (shame buses don't actually run on time, that'd make a nice change)

If the clock was never invented, we did never become attatched to it.

Think about that.

Yes yes, I know all about the "clocks were only invented so people would know when the trains were running" (what a laugh! Trains? On time? Ha!) spiel. But now it HAS been invented, and now it's vital in lots of things, so Prrt to you. ;)

I'm so shocked that chat programs have the most votes!!!

How could anyone live without MSN? You'd have to have a social life in the not internet realm, or somthing!

I say telephone. I almost never use it. But that's just how it fits into my life; it is vital for contacting the emergency services quickly.

So I think I'll say clock. We can still tell the time by looking at the position of the sun.

E-mail
 
I cant stand e-mail, id rather just talk to people on msn then use e-mail. The only time i ever e-mail sombody is to tell them to stop sending me stupid and pointless chain letters that just fill up my inbox and piss me off.

I just cant stand the ones that say send this to 50 people or you will die! :fuzmad: :mad: :flames:

Hard decision. None really vital. All useful. Chose Email. No real reason. Can't be arsed to type any more.
