Phone Overload

[Deleted]

There's a risk, littlemouse, of appalling misogyny creeping into this thread....

We both know that our own experience, and what we've read, is not necessarily representative of wimmin as a whole.

Somewhere, buried in the depths of rainforests, or up to their necks in mud in backward rural France, there may be wimmin who buck the trend, and others like them may be dotted about the globe somewhere.

So phone overload is not necessarily preferable to wimmin.  But phones are still bad, there's no getting away from that...

Misogyny is that part of the male upgrades?
To misquote the National Rifle Association Phones aren't bad its the people who use them !

It's now become abundantly clear to me that this thread has become a thinly-disguised attack on the whole of mankind, irrespective of gender. Misanthropy, not misogyny.

It's a very reasonable argument, littlemouse, to blame the users, and not the technology (lib alluded to it). To misquote:

"Phones, built by robots, used by numpties"....

Ha! Now I learn that youngsters are so dependent on their 'phones that they can't cope with face-to -face relationships,

that they're socially insecure, and that they'd rather hide behind their phones, in lonely isolation....

Which isolation and insecurity leads to depression - suicides rates are up amongst the young..

Their lives are messed up before they even start.  Hanging around on street corners, eyeing up that nice boy from school, stealing apples from someone's garden, is what makes you fit in with your peers, but all today's youngsters have is their phones...

I've read somewhere that people are walking into the road, while on their phone, and getting run-over, such is their absolute unawareness of the risk they put themselves to when they scroll, finger, and shout at their electronic toy in a state of total distraction....

Some people are born with moronic tendencies - the learning disabled, the feeble-minded. Others choose to be moronic by walking the streets absorbed by their phones....

So what kind of moron are you?  One blighted at birth or one full of gizmo?

Either way you get my sympathy....

What kind of moron are you?

[littlemouse]

I accept your sympathy, but to help me overcome my moronic tendencies please send your donation direct to me.

[annon99]

...... you actually accept my sympathy and thereby acknowledge your moronic status, littlemouse??

I don't know whether to salute you for your full and frank exchange or to despair at your wasted life!

And if my money will in some way help you I( can't even begin to explain to you now just how bad things are for you.....

Please consider my state of mind when I tell you planting 5 hectares of lavander warps your brain.Send your donationsto me,because for as little as 1000€ a month I could live a very nice life.

[annon99]

Now you're talking littlemouse'...

Anyone who's mind is warped by planting 5 hectares of lavender is seriously well-adjusted, IMO, and unlikely to suffer from phone overload...

And by a happy coincidence I've been looking for worthy recipients of my excess cash - I've got a stupid amount of it -

so your pissy request for a mere 1000 euros a month (think big, littlemouse - always ask for more than you need - you should've asked for 10k a month) is eminently do-able.....

I will send you my bank details,in the meantime I will allow you to send any size donation you like.
The bank is The Lavender Hill Mob Branch,or is that sprig.
