I thorough enjoy my life the way that it is. It's comfortable but without beening over indulgent. I have a foot spa, DSTV, electric blanket but I don't have a vacuum cleaner, my broom works just well, or Blueray, DVD never let me down, or a blender, I've haven't had the urge to drink my food through a straw. So you see I'm pretty well balanced, everthing I don't have is everthing I don't need therefore can do without.
I've always tried to be technologically advanced but I'm finding harder and harder to keep up.There is always a new something that does this better than that. Like for instance, social networks have become a technology on their own, complete with their own jargon. Decoding 'friends' updates has become a matter of self doubt and a platform to recognise socio-technical ineptitude. If you don't know what SMH, TRT or l8terbgd mean, well I don't blame you,neither do I.
Besides the fact that we made that pimply, Harvard undergrad twerp a multi- billionaire, Mark Zuckerbergs' creation is intrinsically flawed. Still not sure how but I guess thats the allure of it all, think Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden tapping each other! Facebook has become a podium for the shallow, depraved and emotionally bankrupt with imaginary ' haters'. We'll call them what they are, Attention seeks,let's give them an ancromyn so' we can talk behind their backs: As's. The As's you see are the worst of the bunch accounting for over 69.99% of Facebook. His/ her profile goes from it's complicated to I'm married in 1h48min. Names their albums ' Random sessions', fills ur wallls with ridiculus tags and requests. It's this clique that utilise Facebook to it's best but actually shouldn't be allowed on social networks altogether, there status updates are not for the faint hearted. The kick is gone but we still log on, I guess I'll just have deal with it. The As's are everywhere but let's be grateful Zuma won't be giving us a status update!
