Watch out!
Look what happens to people who try to solve their problems by surfing the Great Old Net.

When Chinese who are now taking over the whole world come to a town near you, make sure they do not catch you surfing the Net.  :cool:

I think I use to be like you. In the past I use to come home from school and getting addicted to the computer by going on youtube and playing online computer video games.
