I generally run screaming to my mobile phone and the sweet safety of my internet there!
Oh YouTube, you’re so funny and…what do you mean I maxed my monthly data limit in twenty minutes?!
Last time my Internet went down inexplicably, I demonstrated my stupidity.
FAILED TO CONNECT.
“Internet’s down? Why would that be? Where’s my instruction book? … Crap, I’ve lost it. Oh. I know! I’ll just look it up on THE INTERNET! That’s a brilliant idea! That’s–”
I tend to get into a loop. “Oh, the internet’s down, well I’ll just do this instead… oh, that requires the internet too… well I’ll just do this instead… oh, that requires the internet too…”
Don’t forget all that helpful M$O$ help files that require access to the net to help you get access to the net. Same goes for those troubleshooters your I$P provide …. yeah yeah, plug and unplug and cycle the modem, router, computer, Keyboard,chair, coffee cup holder, but not actually giving you anything that lets you know that those are fine but that some [censored] [censored] cut the line or pulled a jumper at the local office and forgot to put it back ……. >_<
Left my iPhone at home by mistake the other night. I missed several opportunities to add fascinating but ultimately worthless facts to the conversation. There are no rhetorical questions for iPhone users.
I have this problem times ten today. I use an internet application for my work to run inventory. The net went down and I wandered about trying to do SOMETHING!

I so know what you mean!
I spend ages staring at books trying to remember how they work…

Internet connection lost; Life temporarily has no meaning.
This is particularly well timed; my internet here at work is out (I’m pirating a signal because I couldn’t stand to be without internet).

“Oh. Right.”
Don’t feel bad, I think we’ve all done this.

Ditto.

Ah, books…good ol’ books.
Actually, if the internet goes down and I have nothing to do, I usually play a video game.
That’s me when my router goes on strike or when my cell or tablet can’t connect to a public wifi.
What I miss is not being able to read this ‘toon. I’ll wander around for a while sit back down no BUG yet?… wander around some more…
Until I have my BUG fix, the day can’t get started.
This also means I wander around on the weekends feeling as though something is missing… What could it be?
Dude. Seriously. Don’t even joke about that…
“No phone, no boat, no motorcar. Not a single luxury…”
Like Robinson Crusoe, it’s as primitive as can be.
I get like this for a bit, then I immediate CLEAN ALL THE THINGS…then half way through that I get bored with cleaning and watch a DVD/Blu-Ray.

First-World Problems…lol
Adam, you make my day. The weekend isn’t the same without you.
Without internet I start to taste Blue and see the sounds of Innagoddadevitta.
I do all of these things.
Especially the can opener one. Occasionally I pretend it’s a shotgun.
