I agree with Taysby. Technology is not a new concept. Social media isn't either. It's definitely progressed, however. It had become always accessible. But the newspaper and writing letters kept individuals just as "antisocial" as a phone does nowadays (if not more. The accessibility provides super quick communication), and the need/want for materials transcends age. This may sound comical, but don't you think all teenage girls throughout all ages wanted some trendy item? Like a fashionable rock or something? It's not a matter of the progression of technology, it's a matter of human nature. The desire to be liked and to conform (among other things) drives us all into the latest technology and trends.

The world has ALWAYS been materialist, is materialist, and will ALWAYS be materialist. It takes drive as an individual to separate yourself from that.

If you want to sell something: market it to teenage girls

this "fake materialistic society" isn't as fake as you think.  Is talking face to face fake?  facebook, phones, snapchat all let you do that across distances.  Are books fake?  It took "fake" objects to create them.  is information fake?  the internet lets you get that information.  Technology is a tool to help you do things you normally would.

If youre against technology, would that expand to the wheel, fire, etc?  that is all technology.

My impression of you (tell me if it's wrong) is that you are a calm piece loving person that wants to relax under the trees after a hard day of farming.
And my impression of you is youre a pompous ass.
and no, youre wrong, im likely going to be a physical therapist or nutritionist

Crystal necklaces are getting big with the ladies now

Personal insults? Really? Let's stop this debate before it ends up with you two being sent to your rooms until dinner.
I request that, at the least, the debate is cooled off until both parties are past petty insults.

Spencer Addington

This isn't a .loving. debate.

Kaworu, the Fifth Child

It's not? Between mister and Taysby?

Spencer Addington

It's turned from a civil debate to childish name calling and baseless assumptions about the other person. Taysby, we get that you don't like weed, but stop shitting on peoples day. MisterJH, stop letting the opinions of a kid irritate you so much. This is the wrong thread for a discussion that has turned from weed, to shroom, to LSD then into GMO foods. Chill the .love. out.

So people don't like me telling them that something is bad for them?  This must be how most religions feel.

Shooooot... I was going to find those links today.  Facepalm.

People want to hear from you how bad drugs are for them like you enjoy hearing how bad guns are and should be regulated.

You gonna drink alcohol? Do you eat fast food? Sugary drinks? Extended time in the sun? Too much time outside the sun? All of these things are bad in excess. Smoking weed, vaping and eating edibles are all things that are fine in moderation, just like everything else in the world.

No, rarely, rarely, no (redhead). ;)

Now were back to the argument that some leads to more...  Were just going in circles wasting my time.  :P
Live and let live man. We don't need anyone telling us what good, bad and in between. If it doesn't hurt other people, why does it matter to you.

Besides, gingers don't have souls.
