A Virgo Bitch

The title is pretty self-explanatory on what this blog post is gonna be about, so read on & feel free to add your comments


10.) A lot of it is monochromatic black, white or for a hint of colour, Grey! Why do the makers lack imagination & create things only within these colour ranges (a rare exception is Ipod or cars)? And even if I do find a colourful phone or computer, I either don't like the brand, the quality, the design or its wayyyy more expensive! Why the hell are coloured technology more expensive!

9.) There is yet to be a pink coloured blender, an orange toaster, a neon green fridge, a honkin yellow stove!

8.) Notice how technology was suppose to make life easier and give you time to do things that really mattered? Like more time for sex; walk the dog; eat a double breakfast; spend time with kids; make more kids??? Well guess what! It hasn't! People are as busier as ever, cuz with the advent of technology, has come complicated software programs for which you need a university degree to understand & figure out, overly hi-tech design, hair-rippingly frustrating long waits with customer support if god forbid your electronic item breaks down!

7.) Our ancestors, no NOT the cavemen, but our parents & grandparents didn't need a f*ckin GPS to go from point A to point B installed on their iPhone (mind you they were living in times when there weren't as sophisticated street signs as there are now)...so why the hell do we? Has technology made us lazier; more complacent; less able to depend on our own intelligence & abilities; too trusty of the computer & not enough on people!

6.) People have nothing better to do with their lives than sit & create devastating viruses & then infect other computers worldwide! I mean, wut the f*ck! why do you still care to live then?????

5.) Twitter! If computers & internet hadn't been around, we wouldn't have had this stupid Twitter phenomenon! I hope we can get back to the days when "Tweet" or "Tweety" use to mean the big yellow duck from "Bugs Bunny"....not this stupid Tweeter (and puhleeze I am sick of seeing Demi Moore's a$$ on Twitter posted by Ashton Kutcher)

4.) The constant temptation I have to fight, to not surf on Perez Hilton, when I should be doing work like sending resumes! I guess the Bible needs to add the following 8th Deadly Sin:

"Thou shalt not proscrastinate & surf!"- This may stop more ppl from doing it!


3.) How there are now technology related health issues=> I have severe wrist pain from typing too much & this pain will probably never go away (the fact I'm blogging doesn't help matters much!)

2.) Back to sex (a favourite topic of mine): I DON'T NEED a 10inch, jewel encrusted, AAA solar light battery powered dildo! Nor do I need electronic nimple clampers, vibrators, electronic vibrating panties, vibrating tongue for down there & what have you.....I'm perfectly fine with a good old fashioned male, powered by the battery of his libido ;)


AND THE NUMBER ONE THING I HATE ABOUT TECHNOLOGY?

1.) The fact that people have forgotten good ol, face to face & eye to eye communication. I find it beyond RUDE when I'm talking to someone & in the middle of the conversation they suddenly whip out their blackberry, iPhone or whatever other fancy phone & suddenly start texting, surfing online, updating their blogs! I mean HELLO! the reason you called me to hang out with you, is so that we could chat, spend time together & catch up; not so cuz I could have my jaw wide open, my sentence hanging in mid-air & stare at you playing with your f*ckin phone! Frankly, where are your manners! Whenever I hang out with people, I always keep my phone out of sight or only pick up if its a call from Home, otherwise I let it ring. And if I do pickup the phone, I always say "Excuse Me" to the person/friend I was talking to, then take the call.

Lemme give you an anecdote: 

I was on a wonderful first date last year & everything was going well, there was a lot of chemistry there....however I also felt that I was out on a date with ALL of his friends too! Why! Cuz for most of the date, they kept on calling for one reason or another (my date was going to another party that night, so they were trying to arrange things) after every minute! So everytime I would talk or say something, the phone would buzz & I would have to shut up again & shake my head in disbelief! This would've been a total deal-breaker right for most girls right? But its a great thing, that my date was a wonderful guy in every way & he managed to sweep me off my feet :D


So it seems like while everyone is on a wonderful forward march of the many benefits that technology brings to a society, it seems I and a very few others seem to have been left behind, by our preferences for common sensical choices and traditional values and etiquette!
