The Gits

The following Enigin post is about technology and how great it is at connecting us all…

And it has a point: just as is stated in the post, if you do happen to loose your phone then it can be quite tricky to live a normal life–

Take me for example. Last week I went out in to town without my mobile, and, as is typical, when I arrived at the pub my friends were nowhere to be seen. The gits. “This is not good–” I said to myself, “I bet they’ve changed their mind.” (I say mind and not minds because when my friends are all together they all think like one stupid alcohol-fuelled brain.)

Luckily for me I am good at remembering numbers, and so I went straight to a phone box. Except my luck had run out already. The phone didn’t accept coins, you see. No coins! Yes, in a moment of genius insight the local council had deemed it a splendid idea to make the phone only accept cards. Cards for the love of God! How ridiculous exactly is that?

Technology had got me: I had no wallet on me (only a twenty quid note) and no mobile. So instead of walking aimlessly about I just sat in the pub on my own and drank shots. Which was a bad idea–

So it would seem that the world really does come to a halt without technology. Can you imagine what would happen if everyone forgot their phone on the exact same day?
