AT&T have conducted a series of polls that give some insight to Americans and whether they could give up the internet.
The results are quite surprising.
Let’s play a bit of would you rather?
A statistic that may dishearten a lot of us is that 12.8% of your friends would rather attend your
funeral than give up the internet for life.
Almost a third of respondents would rather lose a finger than give up the internet forever.
There is some hope, Most people would rather loose a pet over a significant other or partner than
give up the internet. 29.7% would give up a pet whereas on average 91.8% would keep their closest
loved one/ significant other. Unfortunately, for the other 8.2%, I think it’s a night in the dog house.
Finally, We should all be a lot nicer to women in their 50’s as these women are more likely to
save your life.
