The iRony of the iPod

I'm on the train with my earphones plugged in typing on my iPod. My new favourite acronym: ASD ; Anti-Social Device.

And I'm not the only one. At least 40% of the people on the train are either plugged into a music player of sorts, or thumbs twiddling away at joysticks or keypads playing their portable console.

This iPod is awesome but it has increased my douchebaggery level by umpteen times.

Aside: an old grandma totally flipped open her techno ringtone phone and show her tech savvy street cred. Word to your grandma.

The iPod is a frikkin portable ultra computer. But it is the no. 1 killer of your social skills and your ability to think in peace.

I want to upload all my movies before my Wednesday duty! Woo!!!

I've got to relearn all my social skills again. It's like relearning to walk with a prosthetic leg. I used to spend boring train journeys thinking and maybe pulling out my phone to give surprise messages to people I haven't talked to in a while. Now I'm playing some bubble game or some other weird app. MY SOCIAL SKILLS ARE DOWN THE TOILET!

Haha, but it will be easier to blog nowadays. Can type what I'm thinking on the go.

Look outside your window once in a while. When you are on a train or at home. The world is beautiful :D so get your head out of the console for a while man...
