15. HUMOUR THAT! – INTERNET COMMENTS
• A: I PLANNED AHEAD & BOUGHT SOME ROPE
• B: YOU ARE GOING TO NEED A LITTLE MORE THAN THAT
• What do you mean people would not die? No internet means no
fuel orders. No fuel means no electricity. No electricity means we
go from an information shortage to a food shortage in short order.
• Heck, look at the bright side, we might even get to know our next
door neighbours, play outside with our kids, go to a museum... 
• MAKE REAL FRIENDS!
