I don’t own a cell phone. When I go out it seems like I’m the only one without one and get a kick out of people at concert or sports event using phones to record rather than just watching it live.

‘Text neck’ is becoming an ‘epidemic’ and could wreck your spine
The human head weighs about a dozen pounds. But as the neck bends forward and down, the weight on the cervical spine begins to increase. At a 15-degree angle, this weight is about 27 pounds, at 30 degrees it’s 40 pounds, at 45 degrees it’s 49 pounds, and at 60 degrees it’s 60 pounds.
That’s the burden that comes with staring at a smartphone — the way millions do for hours every day, according to research published by Kenneth Hansraj in the National Library of Medicine. The study will appear next month in Surgical Technology International. Over time, researchers say, this poor posture, sometimes called “text neck,” can lead to early wear-and-tear on the spine, degeneration and even surgery.

Blah blah blah, Set it to music already. Some folks never change. All you need do to bring about extinction is to blow your brains out. It will obliterate the entire world as you know it.

It’s like a cheesy sci fi movie where the aliens dropped millions of shiny little cubes all over the world and every person picked one up and became instantly mesmerized.
It is funny how we can catch mice in traps so obvious you’d have to be a total idiot to fall for. Mice have an IQ of what, 1? 2? But when we get caught in those same traps, no one can see it for what it is.
When I’m in public I often stare into my little rectangle just so I can appear to be like one of them. (The word “them” should be in italics.) Regardless of how absurd all of this is, there is no way to stop any of it.
