I feel like the CB radio could come back as a replacement for text messaging. Look at the similarities
“Where R u?” – Texting
“What’s your 20?” – CB
“OMW” – Texting
“Copy that see you in 10″ – CB
I hate it when I call someone on the phone and they actually answer the call. I would rather leave a message then talk to them. There are people that I know that WILL answer when I call – and so I won’t call them. Or I’ll wait till I know they won’t answer, like at 4AM.
Digital cameras, although awesome, have taken out the exclusivity of photographs. It used to cost money to buy film and develop pictures so you were careful and picked your photo’s carefully…Now I’ll take 40 pictures of my family to get one good one and then delete all of them except the one.
How did the word avatar ever come about? I’m afraid of that word, and tweeting. Tweeting is not a bird call any longer, that was an embarrassing discovery.
I remember my mom moving me away from people walking down the street talking to themselves and hand motioning in a crazy fashion – they were normally the clinically insane or really high. Today I just assume that someone is talking on a phone with some sort of wireless device. One day that’s going to be a very bad mistake for me when someone I think is talking on the phone tries to eat my face because I look like a mushroom….yes I sometimes think I look like a delicious mushroom.
