HOW DOES THE TOILET KNOW WHEN YOU ARE DONE?

I’ll tell you something. Technology is slowly (or maybe very quickly actually) taking us to where we are yet to realise. You agree? Disagree? Well it doesn’t change the fact. The world is moving at neck-breaking speed to a life that nobody can even describe anymore.

So I finish my, err, business at the restroom at the airport and the flusher comes on. I muse again at the impertinence of such technology! There is something rude, and invasive even about technology that “knows your behind”!  And how well does it know your behind even? I mean does the signal read sizes and contours too? Do certain “behinds” set off the flusher faster or better than others?  Does it matter if you are a man or a woman?

I told a friend once that life is getting to the point when we will soon have no use for our feet. Why? The main motivation for continued civilization, and therefore innovation and technological development is how to make life easy(ier) Read #lazier. How to cook without slaving away in the kitchen #microwave. How to make children self-sustaining. #television #videogames. How to digest food faster #juices #smoothies. How to stay in touch and poular without leaving home #facebook #twitter. How to research anything and everything at a click #wikiedia #google #www. How to eat your cake and have it #stillbeingdeveloped J

The other day we had just finished lunch and I looked at my dh and said, “Sweetie, you have to consider putting a lift in the house. This staircase don de taya person!” To which he looked at me and said, “But you will still need to walk to the lift naah! Maybe what you need is a crane…!”

And we wonder why we are overweight…?
