He can quit the Internet any time he wants

Jason has bet some friends $150 that he can go 24 hours without using a computer or the Internet. In turn, he bet one of his friends the guy couldn't go 24 hours without alcohol.

I can go a day and a half without food, 3 months without liquor, 6 months without tv, and 43 hours without sleep before I start breaking down a little... but I pretty much have a 10 hour clock in my head that freaks out if I dont have access to the internet (I dont even need to be on it, just knowing is ok too.) Without the internet I dont have any recipes, tv guide, directions, dictionary, news ect the entire system breaks down on me, I just dont have anything on paper anymore except for books and magazines which are only truely enjoyed in their paper forms. Id rather give up anything I listed for 24 hours before Id give up the internet.

Jason manages, although his friend also went without booze for the same period, so he has no net gain:

... I didn't find the task difficult. I woke up, watched some TV, walked Rosie, we went to the dog park, I made it to the gym, bought a Christmas tree, cleaned up, had friends over, made lasagne and spiked hot apple cider, watched a movie, and cleaned up. ...
