Isn't technology supposed to make life easier?

Text messaging has become the rage these days, especially amongst the kids. I'm still having a hard time grasping this whole concept.
WTF? Apparently this whole damned phone thing has gotten too difficult? WTF was Alexander Graham Bell guy thinking, two people actually talking to each other? OMG LMAO!

What worries me even more, I heard an ad a while back advertising high-definition radio.
I’m having a hard time grasping that concept as well. Are we now going to actually hear Rush Limbaugh laughing all the way to the bank or worse yet, Howard Stern’s nose hairs twisting in his exhaling wind after mentioning the word lesbian for the billionth time?

Don’t even get me started on pornography, because today’s youth have it much easier.
When I was a kid we worked hard trying to find where the old man hid his stash of nudie magazines. These days all a kid has to do is go to his bookmarks.

There is one way it was easier for my generation in that getting rid of porn back then meant giving your dad’s Penthouse to a buddy or throwing it in the trash and it was a distant memory.

Can’t do that with internet porn. As great as techonolgy is, you’re just an errant mouse click away from getting 15 minutes of fame on a segment of “To Catch A Predator”.
Used to be the scariest thing a guy could hear trying to pick up chicks was “no, I’m not interested.” These days it’s “Hi, I’m Chris Hansen from Dateline NBC.”

I'm certainly thankful I've been out of the dating loop for 13 years now, because who knows what kind of trouble I would be getting myself into with all the technological advances.
