Today in the restaurant, my tolerance for smart devices was being tested (Very long rant ahead).
There was a family of seven celebrating a kid's birthday and I thought it was sweet. That is until the we brought their cake out with a sparkler candle on it.
So I'm following the cake with my eyes and I zip to the table. Guess what I see? The kid's mum and her aunt were filming the whole thing on their damn phones. This is your kid's birthday and you're gonna watch it through a screen instead of watching her smile light up? What is wrong with you? On top of that, it looked a pretty damn expensive cake; how about you actually LOOK at it.
You're probably not even gonna watch it again! You're just gonna put it on Facebook and attract the pedos! We're supposed to live to experience things, not take a picture every 5 seconds!
Ugh, it seems like ever since smartphones came in we're losing our ability to live in the moment and be modest. I'm not much of a narcissist, so I don't get why I have to take a picture of my cake or whatever and shove it into the rest of the faces on my wall (I've done this once in a while, but not every time there's a special occasion). Just live in the moment, it's not living if it's through a screen in low quality video.
