But I'm fairly sure that understates the case. I definitely use the interwebz to avoid work and spend more time than I should on it.

You are an average on-line user. You may surf the Web a bit too long at times, but you have control over your usage.

Its totally flawed. Just because someone doesn't spend more time online than they intend doesn't mean they're not addicted. Maybe they intend to spend 23 hours a day online.

Also, a lot of the questions about being away from the internet don't apply if you're never away from it, such as if you have a phone with the internet, or never leave the computer.

How often do you block out disturbing thoughts about your life with soothing thoughts of the Internet?

Ahhh, yes, internet, take me away...

51 and my favorite question:

How often do you block out disturbing thoughts about your life with soothing thoughts of the Internet?

HAHAHAHAHA almost never.
