I watched a show(well okay I lied....it was on and I heard it while doing other things) on MTV that was titled "I Have Digital Drama". Now of course why I started watching it because I believed it, of course, would be about sex tapes! If you think about it, digital drama to me totally equals one of your homemade sex tapes hitting the Internet. Ahh the horror! Or if you're Kim K......ahhh The fame! Anyways no biggie cause no one has sex tapes around here!!! Moving forward and getting my mind out of the gutter, the proposed topic was actually about people(mostly from Jerz...of course) not being about to get your phone away from you and complete addiction to your Blackberry, or iPhone. I have no problem with this because I actually have a problem with remembering to turn my ringer on and answering it. That's why everyone gets a return call around midnight cause that's usually when I'll usually check the phone and vmails. I will admit to being a full addict to checking my Gmail constantly on my iPhone. I could win money, party invites, and we all know I'm a sucker for a good love letter, so I must check it constantly. My use of the phone is very minimal. I don't care who is trying to reach me and I sleep odd hours so most likely I'm asleep or doing something way cooler then answering my telephone.Not these people!!!! These people had seriously problems. If I had to compare it to something I would compare it to my shopping/wardrobe addiction. And we know that's bad. Gina(fake name), 31 years old from good old Jersey couldn't quite get a grip on letting go of her phone. Nino(fake name), 30 years old from Staten Island can't quite get a grip either. basically they look like crack addicts but even worse because ,at least even though crack is whack, it will make you feel realll good while they are crying and whining about maybe missing a text from the club promoter of Marquee(is that still popular?). (It's very sad to watch and just like any addicts, Gina and Nino had problems. Nino always had a steroid problem but we'll get to that another time. Gina goes to visit Nino at his apartment in Jerz. Gina has 6 inch fake nails so how she's using that iPhone I just don't know because it only works with a human touch, not an acrylic. But who knows what they can do now a days. She enters and Nino's sitting right there on his Blackberry too. They do not look at each other.
Then that's when it got awkward and I actually started to watch the show. They sat there in silence, while texting, calling, emailing, and playing guitar hero on their phones, they began to argue.
The argument went a little like this(please add jersey accent. thank you; "Gina: Nino get off your phone. Nino: No, Gina you get off your phone. Gina: Fine, I wanna see your phone. You cheatin' on me aren't you. Nino: You're the one who cheatin' you dirty bitch. Gina: Give me your phone with the passlock off. Nino: Fine you give me yours with no passlock."
You can probably see how this ends but if not I'll give you a short explanation. Nino was in the mist of texting his little mistress on the side so Gina said peace out and said she's be fucking someone else anyways. So BASICALLY not only do these people have digital drama, they are also both whores, and I get you they have other digital things(such as a sex tape or two) floating around the internet as well.
Another couple was featured but they weren't as fun. They had to go to therapy and the husband STILL couldn't get off his phone. It was kinda sad. I think they need to make a rehab for this. Or maybe these people should just go to jail or even Cope and learn the true appreciation of "2 calls a day. Payphone only." Believe me you will never abuse your phone usage again but actually learn to appreciate it much for. Or if you're like me you learn that you really don't need a cell phone at all and this whole would and all it's damn technology is ruining the way we all communicate these days!
Getting dumped by text(seriously now grow up), getting asked out over text(seriously now grow up), finding out on of your girlfriends is engaged by her sending all of us a group text(seriously disgusting), texting your BF that your pregnant(totally not cool), I mean I could go on and on. My biggest problem is when I am hanging out at someones house and they are always checking their phone. I don't even take my phone out of my bag! Or asking what the F is soo exciting going on on your phone asshole......"Nothing just want to see what everyone is doing tonight", "well what does it matter cause we're in our PJ's and are staying in!" It's those little things. And for the big kicker is when people get together to go to dinner. I see this at every restaurant and at my own tables full of my own friends.......cells EVERYWHERE!!!!! And the worst is that we are all with the people we would be calling or texting in the 1st place so whats the point of besides it looks very stupid! We all need to get back to the basics and enjoy each others company, not the company of a mini handheld phone/computer. NOT COOL. Unless you plan on marrying it. Which would be sad.
Try for a whole day no cell phone and no computer. You can do it! Life is much more beautiful! Ohh and BTW.....no one cares about the pic you just got through your text......absolutly no one! There is no real life Gossip Girl! (actually if there is give me her digits. I photographed some scandel on my phone today!)
Peace & Love,
S
