Technology has allowed us to live inward, what will the effects be?
TraceOneInfinite:
I was watching a documentary at Fab5Freddy's website, a documentary that he participated in from NPR. It's an excellent piece of work, I will give the link if anyone is interested in it. But they were talking about the boombox/ghettoblaster. They were talking about how back in the day people used to play there music loud to let their favorite sounds be heard as a form of expression; and that if people didn't like it, they would turn it up even louder!
Then they mentioned how today everyone lives so inward. Everyone has their IPhone, Ipod, video games, etc. and they have their own world inside their headphones and on their cell phone and computer screens.
It's a fascinating subject ya'll, what do you think the effects will be of this on society?

And I ain't talkin' that gay ass 2012 bullshit.
Humans ain't made to live inward. That's why there's nature and thangs of life around us.
Humans are meant to communicate with one another.
Few weekends ago my aunt even brought up this discussion. She said how people is so involved into they phones, and etc., they losing touch wit fuckin' reality. She said how she stepped into the elevator and the two females in there started texting so fast and hard, zoning in on they fuckin' phones, that you could feel the uncomfortableness of each other, of ya know, how fuckin' people is focusing and relying on these bullshit ass devices. I mean really people, what could you really have to say to talk, text, whatever ya do, for that long, that much. Like for real.
Fresh air, water, trees, grass, plants, bees, fuckin' squirrel, got damn dirt, sticks, that's what life is, human contact damn it, that shit is life. Not fuckin' televisions and cell phones, humans aren't designed for that. They ain't designed to live inward. They designed to breath, play outside, they designed for communication, sex...this world is fucked man.
I understand how technology is supposed to 'advance' mankind, but got damn man, there's a line to be drawn at.
