Sth Bend, IN Luddites Unite!

Since MT and CH are apparently on their way to join me (bottom of this page) in the Anti-Texting Movement, I have created this thread as a place for us to complain about the intrusion of tech into our lives. This is also the place to reminiscence about the Good Ol' Days.

"Hey - can't you see I'm texting very important things!"

 

I am definitely know as the gal who goes off on everyone at work for texting her. can't stand it.. not only that but it costs me a ton of money.

i am dyslexic, I don't get it?

 

Here's what CH, MT, and I have been looking for:

Automatic Tweet Generator

 

I prefer this one

 

Brilliant! I wonder how many people actually use that.

 

I may have used it once or twice. There are some really amusing ones in there

 

What we need is one that automatically generates posts for this board. But this is close enough:


http://www.randomkittengenerator.com/

 

I know the guy at Dreamhost who built that page.


As I was clicking thru it I was kinda hoping that a scary face would randomly fill my screen...AHHHHH


We need a random Ewok generator.

 

So of course I Googled, "random ewok generator" and found this page: The Society for the Extermination of Ewoks

They have a FAQ page which states in red letters, "Background Information- contains spoilers for Return of the Jedi".

Spoilers? For a 26 year old movie? Although admittedly, it doesn't look like the site's been updated in over 10 years. Which of course makes that site Luddite Approved!

 

I think any page still hosted on Geocities should be Luddite approved.

 

Indeed, I was thinking the same thing!

That is NOT representative of our Luddite movement. The boy in that clip should be permabanned.

 

No, you see... he's knocking her off the computer.

That IS COMPLETELY representative of our Luddite movement. The boy in that clip should be hailed as a champion of our cause.

 

All hail Leonidas, defender of Ludditism everywhere!

 

i'm glad to join the club, guys.

 

It will be "us" vs "them" on Thursday, I think.

 

phew! i saved this thread on my computation machine. it would have been lost forever otherwise.

 

This is a good thread, lots of lols.

 

26 year??! I saw that and was like "Unh-uh."

And then I was like "Oh crap, he's right."

And then I was like "Crap, I am old."

And then Grand Moff Wife was like "Yes. Yes you are old."

And then I was like depressed.

 

Weeeeeeeeeeee! bleep!

Actually CH, it's not 26 years. It's 27. Or will be, in May. Feel better now?



As for this:

I would love to see what's in the history file of X's browser. Oh man, would I.
