How's your internet?

[da]

We were both relaxing in our room; me, at a desk at my laptop, and melted_snowball on the bed at his laptop. After a brief conversation, I said to him, "So, how's your internet?" He looked at me strangely.
And he kept looking at me strangely. What?

Is not internet like dinner?

Yes, internet is like dinner, and your usage is appropriate.

I'm definitely with you on this one.

How was your internet?

Great, thanks. A bit of Google Earth, a bit of Banff Webcams, and a bit of email to finish it off. Just enough to make me full but not overfull. :)

Too often I eat too much internet, rooting around in irritation, looking for one more tasty morsel, when it is quite clear that my plate is empty and I should just unplug and go have a life.

This is one of the reasons I keep my RSS reader sparely configured with (engadget,metafilter,redflagdeals). If there was always something new in it, I'd never get off the screen.

So what's his problem?! ;-)

And how IS the internet, since you brought it up?

As of last night; great, thanks. A bit of Google Earth, a bit of Banff Webcams, and a bit of email to finish it off. Just enough to make me full but not overfull. :)
