I Hate Technology
Recently I have had this feeling that I wish technology did not exist. I hate text messages and talking to people on the internet. It seems like it completely voids all human contact. Its artificial every thing gets lost in translation and there are so many more things that are wrong with it that I cant even begin to stress my disgust with my laptop/cell phone at this time.
I want to delete my facebook account throw away my cell phone. Call people from a pay phone in a gas station.
I dream of a simpler time. A time where people went to each others home to visit instead of having a virtual get together in some chat room. A time where people called each other on the phone and had actual conversations instead of string of fucking sad faces and shit… over text messaging.
