And be outside the loop for eternity because everybody communicates through computers and phones…

Well that was an unintelligent response.
If cultural behavior has shifted as a result of the introduction of phones, then in what way refusing to engage in that behavior going to culturally shift everyone else back to the by-gone ways and days? Self isolationism is no solution.

Very insightful comment from Fartface.

While it is an insightful comment, adding “from Fartface” has given me such a fit of the giggles.

nobody is forcing you to ride in a car either, just try taking your horse and buggy across LA to get to work. Technology makes things cheaper and more convenient, but not usually better, ever looked at old tin-type photos? You can’t tell me iphone snapshots look nicer. The world is shaped, and we usually have to keep up if we want to remain economically viable. It’s nearly impossible not to have a cellphone if you want to have a job.

They still the same for me. I’m off the grid. 2 years now. I love it. Got a land line and that’s it.

I used to bring a book when I expected long waits. Now I just read the books on my phone. It’s an improvement.

fun fact: before cell phones people were not late
raltyinferno
Hahahahahaha, that’s total BS, people were late all the time, people just tended to wait for them longer and be more patient.

Bollocks. You just ditched that bitch. No one had any patience for anyone that would fuck you around before cell phones. You just stopped being friends with the asshat.
Now there’s this lingering opportunity for them not to be a total fucking waste of space. Cell phones have ushered in an unnecessary amount of tolerance in social bullshittery. Not a fan.

You’re British, aren’t you.

“Asshat” vs “bollocks”. British/Commonwealth or US/Canadian? So hard to tell!

I’m actually in that last panel right now. I’m the guy on the right.

Excellent. Except the waiting part. I think people have a memory block at how weird and uncomfortable it was to wait around with nothing to do surrounded by people who are obviously more interesting and popular than you… wait… was that just me?
Nevermind. :/

Before cell phones millions of Africans lived in destitution. Now, with micro-financing and the ability to communicate, they are lifting themselves out of a huge hole. The paradigm has shifted and anyone resisting it, is only leaving themselves WAY behind,

Well, i’m glad i’m a kid too young to have experienced life without cell phones… i have so much trouble remembering numbers >_<

You don’t have to be like that and hang around people who are like that. Control the situation yourself and your own habits and life will continue to be great. You will also stand out from the crowd for being more engaged in real life, more aware of your surroundings, better memory skills and much more self assured. Very attractive qualities that lead to so many more positive opportunities.
