The Derailing Thread

Its probably the great delusion in scripture. The world is become brain dead on there phones and technology they don't know what reality is anymore. Hey theres a green tree next to you.

I mean the internet is good to study, but I think 95% of people are brainwashed in fairyland playing pokemon or doing something on there phones why walking like texting. Its deluded.

It's the same problem with people texting while driving.

There is a growing number of people who want to have basic cell phones...a means to make and/or receive phone calls, and that's all.
 
I admit I spend way to much time on internet. Its not good. If I don't watch myself I might become a deluded zombie like millions of others.
 
It all depends upon what you use the internet for.

Spending time here at CFnet is time well spent :thumbsup

Hey AirDancer,
I've always been one of those people with a basic cell phone.

I mean, is it fair that a cell phone should have the capability to take pictures, for example?
Do cameras have the capability to make phone calls? NO. So what gives? Where's the justice in this world?
:hysterical

Yeah. Except it's not so funny. I was on a short train ride, about 40 minutes last year. On my side was a couple. They were married. He was on his phone and she was on her phone. I was wondering if they were maybe texting each other! LOL.

I know all about smart phones. I have granddaughters that like to keep Samsung in business. I've purchased at least 7 in the past 3 years. But I never want one for myself. People are loosing the ability to communicate. Teenagers are beginning to speak in SMS mode.

So yes. I want to belong to the simple cell phone club.
I'm just glad one exists!!

Wondering

Do you know about this clinic in China where kids go to get de-zombieized?
Their parents give them a sleeping pill at night and when they wake up they find themselves in this clinic.
3 Months. Cold turkey. I found out about this on Fox News. Some will wear diapers so they don't have to stop once a game begins. Sounds pretty serious!

Don't become a zombie Kiwidan. I'll bet fishing is so much more fun -

I used to have a basic cell phone, wondering. True, it could receive text messages....but I didn't buy a phone plan that supported them. So if a text came through, I knew it had nothing to do with my family or friends.

That phone was 12 years old when it fatally malfunctioned. I went into the phone shop, with every intention of getting another basic phone, but ended up with a mini smart phone. It was on sale....for $1.00. Granted, I had to sign a contract for a year, but I figured I could abide my phone company for another year. Didn't bother to buy insurance on that dollar phone; after all, if the phone breaks, I'm out a whole dollar.

My next cell phone will be a basic one. I don't use even a fraction of the apps available on the phone...I don't check email...I don't connect to the internet on the phone.

I started to say that the bear is handing the explorer a PEPSI .......
But actually, its food.
The explorer is feeding his hungry friends....:thumb

I posted a photo of someone feeding a very hungry family of Polar bears.
I think this is an awesome photo.

Man and Nature. Getting along.

Two thoughts:

1. I'm really relieved it wasn't a cell phone!
2. Sign in Grand Canyon National Park:
"A fed animal is a dead animal."

Who pays attention to signs?

Wondering
 
Signs, Signs, Everywhere there's signs.
Blocking out the scenery. Breaking my mind.
Do this! Don't do that! Can't you read the signs?

(Five Man Electrical Band's song "Signs")
