Hating technology

13:25 / 02.07.05

"Machines hate me. I'm a genetic luddite, incapable of operating anything more complex than my toaster."
Bigby Wolf, FABLES vol.1

I've been trying to get my home PC online for a couple of years now, but it has foxed the best IT friends I have, they can't even identify the problem. After a few posts on the untamed hate and anger thread I thought there might be others who hate the overly complex machines that dominate our lives now (shades of the Matrix...)

Anyone else pissed off with technology?

The one's who are are sitting at home, in the dark, listening to the meat rot in their unplugged refrigirators.

You know, I can never operate my darned VCR. I guess I'd better ask a kid to do it, they always know how to operate these newfangled devices. Kids, eh? And hey - why is it that you can't open a milk carton these days without spilling it? Am I right or what?

Sometimes new TV channels install themselves and I have to have a bit of a sit down.
