I love it when old people try to understand the inner workings of the teenage brain. Like if they think hard enough they’ll figure out why little Amanda sneaks out at night. Please. Kids are kids! So parents, just understand that you’ll never understand the advanced and possibly unreal sexting terminology of your kids.
It seems that we of the geeky persuasion are doomed. Doomed, I say! If it’s not radiation us cancer (or not giving us… Whatever…), it seems that our smartphones are now debilitating us thanks to their convenience and small screens. A report on Stuff.co.nz tells us that our mobile devices are causing “high tech blues” as we use them more and more.
It’s an admittedly small sample size from a start-up social network, but even so: that’s ice cold. MocoSpace surveyed 20,000 of its 10.3 million members, and found that SMS is the weapon of choice for 47 per cent of phone break-ups.
Sorry to burst your warp bubble, bucko, but that text message you received the other day from a mobile phone user in the year 2016 was just some stupid bug.
Man, people really laid into me for texting while driving as a part of reviewing the N97. It’s unsafe, no doubt, but the reality is, people do it. Do you?
