Then what the hell was it?
Do you think I downloaded those videos and games with the intent of preventing you from using the internet for a week?
I admit, my actions were selfish and unjustified, but it's like you're criminalizing me.
They're thinking of making me get my own line.
But they say that like it's a punishment.
I'm looking at plans.
If I do do it, it will cut my speed down to a fifth of what I have.
It'll cost me $370 up front for a year of service.
People say the company I'm looking at is great.
But, you know, freedom.
No bandwidth cap.
"I think you have an addiction."
Excuse me? To what?
Video games? I barely play.
Computers? I can stop anytime within an hour's notice.
"You've been spending too much time in your room."
Arguable. I have school to attend, friends to hang out with. You say this like me being in my room is any worse than your daughter in the basement playing Guild Wars and reading manga all day. Is it just that you want me to be in the house, outside of my room? Did you want me to give up studies?
If you didn't charge me rent, instantaneously, all these "problems" you bring up would go out the window. I'd be able to afford a lot of things, and never have to be alone again.
But then you would lose a source of income, which you claim you need from me because of your fucking stupid spending habits.
Diet pills? Hunger suppressants?
Huge bags of chips you consume in one sitting? Bottled milkshakes? And what's worse is that you make most of these purchases at 11PM at a 24 hour convenience store rather than at a grocery store, so you lose even more money.
"I think you should get a job so that you would leave your room more."
I don't think you understand how useless a job would be to me. All I would get is experience. Which is rather nice, but do you know anyone working for experience alone?
Any money I earn is deducted.
All it ends up being is wasted time.
Only about seventeen months to go...
