I HATE SATELITES AND THE POWERS THEY GIVE THE ELITE

I REALLY DO HATE THEM AND YES I KNOW WE GET BENIFITS BUT THE WORLD WOULD BE A BETTER PLACE IF THESE THINGS WEREN'T THERE.

COULD YOU IMAGINE IF SOME ONE WERE TO TAKE THEM OUT

I DON'T THINK IT WOULD BE VERY HARD EITHER

I WISH EVERY DAY THAT A HUGE SOLAR FLARE WOULD HIT THE EARTH KILLING ALL ELECTRONICS

THIS WORLD SUCKS.. THERE IS NO ORIGINALITY BECAUSE EVERYONE IS CONNECTED SO EASILY

I'VE BEEN TO TOWNS ALL AROUND THE US AND THEY ARE ALL THE SAME.. EVERYONE IS THE SAME.. IF ALL THE KIDS GROW UP WATCHING THE SAME SHOWS.. WANTING THE SAME #... LISTENING TO THE SAME MUSIC... WE HAVE NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF THE SAME DUMBASSES RUNNING AROUND

I WOULD SACRIFICE MY CONNECTION TO TECHNOLOGY...

I WILL WISH EVERYDAY FOR IT ALL TO END.

If you feel that way, throw away your TV, cell phone, computer and all other electronic devices, problem solved! You will not know what is going on, so nothing will seem the same to you. I hope this does not sound rude, I don't intend that.

There is some truth in what you say, the world is corrupt thanks to the amount of technology that's available. If I had not stayed on the computer for so long to watch videos and play games that have been of no use to me. And to sit in front of the TV and watch movies all day. I would of probably been a Doctor or a Scientist by now. I may have been someone very important to a lot of people. Now I just hate my life because it's so lifeless. We do the same things every day, Sleep, Eat, Die and repeat.

I wish I could buy a piece of land and grow my own vegetables and live with the nature. I hate what the cities have turn out to be.

The only thing that's keeping me alive is the fact that God has promised me Paradise if I stay truthful to him and follow his commandments. This is the only reason I'm still alive. This life is not worth living for it's materials, only worth living for what's to come after. In my opinion.

And now back to Sleep, Eat and Dying.

Actually, towns in the north are very different from towns in the south.

Florida is far removed from Michigan and Ohio, as far as preferences, language, behavior, style, and general life goes.

California is rather different from Florida as far as dialect and fashion goes. Utah is different from Tennessee as far as etiquette and mannerisms go.

America is the melting pot of the world...obviously the diversity is going to be rampant. Florida alone has 5 different languages.

I don't think you've been around America at all.

so because you are bored, this means the world sucks and being connected is bad.
being connected is the best thing since sliced panda.
the internet is the best tool for anyone wanting to get their message out (like you have done), the best tool for learning and the greatest tool for mass communication.
like all tools it can be abused but that doesnt quite make electronics a bad thing yet.

Well, time to scrap your car...after all, that's technology too. As well as your electricity, your running water, your medicine, your furniture, and everything else that wasn't hand picked and home made.

Throwing away my stuff wouldn't solve anything... I do enjoy these things... but as an aspect of humanity I believe these things have destroyed the family.. and the originality out of the world.

This is just a rant and I'm not looking for an answer

I was excited to tour america years ago... but after driving from one side to another I saw the same thing in every town.. unhappy people on their modern cell phones not able to talk to people right in front of them.. walmarts, targets, mcdonalds, burgerkings, 7-11s... the same shows on tv... the same crap everywhere... there is no point in traveling more than 2 miles today because it will be the same crap repeating over and over...

people wonder why america has no imagination... it is because of these reasons

if you look at it from a third person view the way it is will fail.. the humanity of the world will stagnate... there will be no peace... we will fail as people and a society..

or... we are the borg

Your wrong... I have traveled america

Military Service

Escort for Heavy Equipment which let me see many many places

Traveled for 1 year just seeing sites

Yeah people talk just a little different... but as for towns.. there are small towns that are older that have a little more originality... far and few between..

There are some differences but they are to small to name...

I REALLY HATE IT WHEN MY CAPSLOCK BUTTON GETS STUCK.

Not sure if it has anything to do with satellites though....

I am really sad to hear you say this. While it is true my town has a Walmart and fast food, there is so much more to the area I live in. Where I live there is abundant natural beauty and history. There are fossils from a shallow sea, back soon after life began. The people here are basic, honest, really kind people. I can have my car worked on and leave money laying inside, and when it is all done, the money is still there. I can leave a package on my porch overnight and all the next day, in plain view and it will still be there when I finally retrieve it. I can break down or become faint and several people will come to my aid. I can eat at a restaurant and have a stranger buy my meal and remain anonymous. There is beauty and wonder in the world, you just have to look.

If it stops me having to waste my time reading pointless diatribes such as this OP then sure, go for it, take out the satellites.

Electronics suck?

What are using to post this again?

reply to post by Mentalistbee


Look I'm not saying I don't enjoy using electronics, wifi, flat screen tvs.. ect.. What I am saying is having all these things and being as connected as we are is destroying originality and causing our culture to stagnat. These things we own and spend so much time on begin to own us.

I myself hope for a solar flare that would knock out electronics for years... yes we wouldn't have alot of these TOYS but we would become closer to our familys and nieghbors

Back before we had these devices people knew their neighbors and familys were strong... of course there were still problems and people were somewhat isolated but that is a good thing because their ideas were more original.. look at america now, we are fat, lazy, parinoid people.

They talk about all the space junk and it got me to thinking... imagine if someone shot a rocket into space with c4 and a huge amount of ball bearings.. once exploded those bearings would circle the earth over and over at a high velocity smashing satilites and government weapons that are floating around... the normal people would go about life like nothing really happend and the powers that be would lose a bit of there power...

just saiyn
