if you had to give up ONE of these for ONE week

**nickel** · 11-10-2002, 02:41 PM

which one would you choose?

**InfiniteNothing** · 11-10-2002, 02:58 PM

If we give up all human contact I think that means we give up sex. I just can't see how that would work otherwise. I think you should replace that option with up like give up 8 hours of your life. Because I would pay so much for just a couple more hours in the day

**NuTs62** · 11-10-2002, 04:08 PM

I'd give up.... hmm.. showering..

**IntegraTypeR** · 11-10-2002, 04:11 PM

food -- people fast so fasting for a week can't be that bad for you

**nickel** · 11-10-2002, 04:11 PM

by human contact i meant talking to or seeing another human being.

**nickel** · 11-10-2002, 04:26 PM

SHEESH, HUMOR ME WOULD YA?

letsay that human contact choice excludes sex
dammit

**sbp** · 11-10-2002, 04:51 PM

One thing I would not give up for a week is food.

i think there are different degrees of fasting. some only do it when the sun is up. Some do it 24/7. But food is certainly not something I'd be able to give up.

Human contact... I could go with being alone for a while.

You'd rather give up human contact than sex???? That's pretty funny. Though... it does seem like the trend here

**Freelance Superhero** · 11-10-2002, 10:18 PM

i'd say some of those on this board have already long since foregone all human contact AND sex...

**InfiniteNothing** · 11-10-2002, 10:35 PM

I thought that too. And then I saw this post.

**topane** · 11-11-2002, 05:17 AM

I give up sex for a week regularly. Then again, I'm married...

Depends on how you define sex.

you wouldn't believe how hard it is.

i put showering. i've gone without showering for 4 days once. i think i could hang out a little longer since i have short hair.

Yeah, i could do any of those easily except for food. Now i fast (as a matter of fact i've been fasting for the past week and will continue for another couple weeks) but our fasting is no food or drink while the suns up. To not eat for an entire week can't be healthy at all.

yeah. that's tough. my roomie thinks i'm a computer junkie. luckily, i noticed with my new contacts that i'm trying out that i can't look at monitors for long periods of time.

good!

stop stealing internet bandwith... all of you, go away for a week, so i can surf without lag, and download everything in a jiffy!

**Kim** · 11-12-2002, 06:47 AM

Sex would for sure be the easiest to give up for a week. Food, and human contact would be the hardest.

**Nija** · 11-12-2002, 10:22 AM

I could give up human contact extremely easily. then showering, but only if the g/f wasn't home, if she was, she would want me to shower before she rapes me.... again....

human contact is something i can usually live without

**tweeteresa** · 11-12-2002, 12:09 PM
