Why Can't We Live On The Internet?


Turakii #1 Lavasurfer

On the internet...

 

You can carry on ten conversations simultaneously without any of the other people knowing.

 

Nobody can interrupt you mid-sentence.

 

You can change your appearance as simply as uploading a new avatar.

 

No one has ever stubbed their toe on a topic.

 

You can speak in color.

 

Nobody ever got tired running from BZP to Wikipedia to Google to BZP to their blog to the messenger to lego.com to...

 

Friends are added with the click of a button.

 

With the magic of the backspace key, no one says the dreaded, "No, go ahead, I want to hear the rest of it."

 

Emoticons show expressions you could never manage with your actual face. =3

 

Every time you retie your shoe, the world can know.

 

You can brutally murder your friends with shotguns, sniper rifles, and grenades without affecting your friendship in any way.

 

You don't get arrested for shopping for groceries in your underwear.

Not to mention we could drive, wear or do whatever the heck we wanted. Then again, what'd we do with spammers or trolls?

Banhammah.

'Cept that we'd all be veery fat if we never moved from our desk chairs. :P

 

But everything is a lot easier...though I'm not too fond of internet dating. :D

With what I've learned about how these things work, if we did live on the internet, we'd make blog posts lamenting why we can't live in real life.

 

Though I'd like to do emoticon faces. =3

Turakii,

Reality, my friend. In reality, people have to do work in order to keep society running. Not everybody can be nerds. At heart, civilizations need many specialized workers raising food and putting together the raw materials needed for us to live. Where would we be if some old granny hadn't one day decided to make clothes for her kids during the Great Depression, for example?

 

Oh, wait, I'm spoiling the joke, aren't I? :P

 

Live long and prosper.
