Motherfucking Time Vampire

I really do hate technology. I wonder if my technophobia derives from a similar root as my misanthropy; I can get rapidly and immensely pissed off with humanity simply because I don’t think we’re living up to our potential at times, and I feel much the same about early 21st century technology. Are we rushing things too much? Are our leading IT companies pumping out skimpily beta-tested products that are full of bugs just to keep up with, or slightly ahead of competitors? I only ask as around 75% of the last dozen or so software packages and hardware I’ve used haven’t worked properly.

I don’t want to back away from technology, and end up as an entrenched luddite, living in a wooden shack scribbling venomous invective to Bill Gates jr., but on reflection, I don’t think I need worry. I’ll surely die sometime in the next few years trying to configure Windows Media Player 12.
