Wow. That's a little pathetic, even to me.

EDIT: I realize this may hurt some people's feelings, I just thought it was interesting. And plus, EVERONE's embarassed about something or other their country's done.

    That's ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous.

    1) They shouldn't be addicted anyway, and the military service should of hammered it out of them... WTHbbq, addicted to the internet... gah!
    2) If it's really such a problem, have some sort of internet-access place where you can go for a bit every so often, and tone it down as they become less 'addicted'.
    3) Internet addiction is not a clinical addiction, and if i ever see it become an official addiction, i will be very angry!
