hey i have to write a 1 pg satire for my lit class im doing cell phones,
what do you guys think about them, you know, how the next one will be somthing like a cell phone/GPS/Mp3/oven lol, stuff like that
Cell phones have really come a long way in these past years. We upgraded all the way from walking around with large plastic bricks, to having miniscule objects that will do our laundry, that is if we can find them. Soon enough we’ll have the Swiss Army Cell Phone. This will be able to make phone calls, instant message, play music, give us a back massage, and cook us dinner, and much, much more with select attachments sold separately. We could even go so far as cell implants. “Hold on my brain is vibrating.” Implants could be installed, in places such as the brain, or hand.
With such implants ring tones would become pointless. Of course most people would buy them anyway, because most will believe that something is good just because they saw it in a commercial on television. Commercial companies can get society to believe just about anything. The mentally disturbed will no longer receive dirty looks, because it will appear that they are talking on cell implants, and not to themselves. Also our memories will no longer fail us because we will be able to take pictures of whatever we see. Of course such devices will also have their defects. We will probably all get cancer from the radiation emitted from the implants. Of course we buy medication that gives us cramps, nausea, and drowsiness, but gets rid of our headache, so why stop at medication? Other defects may include, various forms of brain damage, lack of privacy, and broken implants driving the client insane. Not to mention that advertising would become so much easier. Companies could then project images, sounds, and subliminal messages directly into the brain. As you can probably imagine, the technology we work so hard to improve, will in the end destroy us.
