We are what we hate...

So in today's modern society, where communication mostly involves electricity(she thinks as she types), do we even need F2F communication anymore? Has conversation fallen to the wayside, just like common courtesy and student loans? 


I was given a cell phone when I was 17 years old, for emergency use only. When I turned 18, I had to pay for said phone. 
My parents were always firm believers in not making cell phones a part of our everyday life.
As a result, I rarely check my cell phone or even know where it is. If there happens to be an emergency, I will reach for it like it is my lifesaver.


The other night when I was supposed to be visiting my parents, they were both slouched over in their seats, with both hands on their cell phones, texting! If there is a problem now, they will just text me. So if there ever is an emergency, I will be the last person to know. Thanks a lot! 


This must be another one of those, "do as I say, not as I do" moments, like smoking.


This is an epidemic problem that needs to be examined. 




Now, twitter me this? How egotistical do you have to be, to actually think people care about what you are doing at 2 a.m. at Walmart?

I may be cynical today, but I still won't have a keyboard on my phone tomorrow.
