If mail doesn't exist, how will internet shopping work? Will we get teleportation up and running in the next decade?
[QUOTE=Jabberwocky;27301735]If mail doesn't exist, how will internet shopping work? Will we get teleportation up and running in the next decade?[/QUOTE] Mail as in letters, not E-mail.
they forgot liberty
[QUOTE=mobrockers;27302699]Mail as in letters, not E-mail.[/QUOTE] but Jabberwocky was referring to regular mail, as in packages and UPS and fedex and the royal mail and all that. If mail disappears, how would items be delivered?
I love VHS's, I have boxes and boxes full of them. Better movies than the ones today.
Whoever came up with this article is an idiot.
[QUOTE=Habsburg;27253346]Watches? what[/QUOTE] No kid born in 2011 is going to use a watch when going to school or work. They're going to use their phone.
[QUOTE=strayebyrd;27303866]but Jabberwocky was referring to regular mail, as in packages and UPS and fedex and the royal mail and all that. If mail disappears, how would items be delivered?[/QUOTE] He meant not mail as in parcels.
[QUOTE=W00tbeer1;27305482]No kid born in 2011 is going to use a watch when going to school or work. They're going to use their phone.[/QUOTE] I'm gonna buy a kid born in 2011 a watch just to prove you wrong.
[QUOTE=mobrockers;27306009]I'm gonna buy a kid born in 2011 a watch just to prove you wrong.[/QUOTE] People have bought me watches, I don't use em.
[QUOTE=power-mad;27306285]People have bought me watches, I don't use em.[/QUOTE] If they get a watch, they will know about it, this article states that kids born in 2011 will never experience/see/get to know anything on that list because it doesn't exist anymore, which is just bullshit,
I have a wired phone. :saddowns:
Fuck these kids, man. When I'm a parent, my kids are watching nothing but 90s cartoons, on VHS, playing Gamecube, on Web 1.0. This fast paced robot-thinking is getting out of hand, people need to go outside more often *sigh*

[QUOTE=strayebyrd;27303866]but Jabberwocky was referring to regular mail, as in packages and UPS and fedex and the royal mail and all that. If mail disappears, how would items be delivered?[/QUOTE] UPS and FedEx are slightly different than regular mail. The intent is package delivery. If USPS ceased to exist, letters would probably not be delivered via snail mail anymore. UPS and FedEx would deliver anything ordered online.
I hate how my generation texts or talks to multiple people at one time. It's fucking annoying.
[QUOTE=Extroll;27313832]I hate how my generation texts or talks to multiple people at one time. It's fucking annoying.[/QUOTE] I couldn't care less as long as the person I'm talking to is participating. Texting isn't that big of a deal.

[QUOTE=guckymister;27319536]They will never know the original 151 pokemon D:[/QUOTE] No big loss.
The reason I never wrote anything in cursive was because it's stupid. If I want to learn another way to write a language I'll learn a DIFFERENT language.
[quote][b]Hiding:[/b] Not long ago, if you didn't answer your home phone, that was that -- nobody knew if you were alive or dead, much less where you might be. Now your phone is not only in your pocket, it can potentially tell everyone -- including advertisers -- exactly where you are.[/quote] This makes me sad :(
Commercials on TV - really? I hope so, but I [I]really[/I] can't see that happening. BBC1/2 are so much more enjoyable to watch than other channels for that reason.
Haha, wow 16 year olds and 19 year olds feeling old? pff, I'm 19 and I don't feel a bit old. Looks like you guys probably should go out more or something. With that said, wrist watches are actually being used alot here in Sweden. My watch broke though so I have to buy a new one :3:
I like to write things by hand more than w/ a keyboard.
im scared of technology :ohdear:
Things I lol'd at. "Yellow and White Pages: Why in the world would you need a 10-pound book just to find someone? Movie rental stores: You actually got in your car and drove someplace just to rent a movie?" There's gonna be a lot more they won't know about.
Oh my god what a retarded article not everyone has or wants a smartphone, or wants one on 24/7.
Where I live movie rental stores wont die in a long long time. Seriously, I have no idea what "redbox" is.
I have a watch, but I use my phone to check the time.
