Unnoticed Addictions

So we may acknowledge that we are dummies in our quest for an unsocial relationship with our chosen social network friends for the day, but even as the faithful networker tenderly walks the streets and socializes with his human friend counterparts, ignoring the pulls and lusts of the flesh to exclaim, “ YES, I’m OK !”  “I’m learning much about electronic media and I have new skills in communication which will be unhelpful to me sometime very soon”, we wonder what they’re waffling on about. Are they deranged by their new found gratuitous love of electronic media or have they just become delirious by the addictive myriads of flickering pixels that they can’t see in life’s big electronic screen projected before their very eyes.  Now they have become oblivious to their addictive state which will eventually hit them like a hammer on the head. Readers, wear a crash helmet, you may need it.

Why not read: Flickering Pixels: How Technology Shapes Your Faith and see for yourself how much influence these barely seen pixels have on your life.

Social Network Safety Whatsits

The unsocial aspect of social networks doesn't stop at the personality and character assassinations of friends and family. It also comes much closer to our own physical health than we would care to admit, as we sit at our computers, staring at the pixels, being completely oblivious to the damage that's creeping in to our physique. What follows, even as a younger person is endless hours of neck and back aches, stomach and wrist aches, and don't mention the bowels as the much needed "whatsit" is delayed for a few hours. What a life, aye? perhaps an electronic swivel chair on automatic coasters with a built in drinks machine will come on to the market soon?  Click on the picture of the man below and take a few tips from what you see.

The Mind Taken Captive to Social Networks


Custom Search

So as our mind, our character and our lives are being trained in various unnecessary and even obscene, moral and immoral values around us, through entrapment, without our permission, our thoughts have become relaxed and oblivious to the dimensions of the unseen captor in the form of the flickering pixels flowing gently out of the electronic media in our midst. Our interaction with televisions, cell phone, computer, game station, radios, etc make us prime targets for these stupefying miniscule and almost invisible screens to work and alter the unsuspecting mindset. Prime targets are those who are easily influenced by what they can see physically; internet media and social networks, primarily in their unsocial capacity are nets for these unseen strongmen masquerading as innocent pixels and leading their captive also to an unsocial  existence. Be warned, open your eyes to see these minute assassins.

Murder of an Unsocial Socialite

The Murder of an Unsocial Socialite

In an ever lengthy flow of words formed from the tapping of letters on a keyboard between the addicted socialites of the unsocial networks, but nevertheless in an effort to prove that they are social, these two gurus of the network grail suddenly take their focus away from the main point of topic being disseminated when one of them request the other that a visual conversation might be appropriate…….Then there is silence on the keyboard for a while as the brain of the respondent begins to take on board the realization that he may actually have to speak and use real words and real facial expressions to communicate with his unfriendly socialite. WOW! Thinks the unsocial socialite, shall I resort to the pointing of the finger over the unlike button and remove him from my sight as he then continues to murmur to himself, out of the hearing of people around him? This surely is a major decision in this unsocial relationship between people who were once in love with the uniqueness of their unsocial friends’ expletives expressed promptly at the tap of a key. Shall I take him out of the way he thinks again and remove him from my sight forever? This is now a major decision that will need to be pondered over for a while as the unsocial socialite broods and takes up space in his thinking. Shall I obliterate him from the face of the Facebooks or put him in the twit section of Twitters for him to tweet alone. Perhaps I should disembody him from Myspace and let him have his own space as he is quite self sufficient to Buzz his way within another unsocial social network. Shall I murder him with my mouse click? Alas, the clicking stops.

Facebook of Dummies

I glanced at a a couple of books the other day and misread their caption line as “Facebook of Dummies” rather than “Facebook for Dummies”. Even Twitter doesn't escape this tag. I guess, as I look deeper into the meaning of the English trying to express itself through this caption, it seems impossible to take my interpretations away from how oblivious social network users have become to their own relationships “as dummies” to these inapproachable systems which conjure myriads of useless pieces of information and try to make intellectual or sensible conclusions using the human. Sadly, most humans are dummies, wandering in their oblivious toil which clicks a mouse to speak as the cursor caresses the face and profile of another dummy. So, all you dummies out there, waiting for your mouse to tweet, remember that it doesn’t, it just clicks. Oh! Did I say tweet? What a dummy I am, I mean "squeak"!

The correct names for the books are the following:

Unsocial Social Networks

Why do we tag the different forms of these online network cultures as being an acceptable growth in society? Surely these networking ”social” or “unsocial” sites in their various guises of personal, business and religious or political internet medium have a major role to play in society generally? Well haven’t they?

Surely they promote lively discussion and even eventful behavior between their online members and create a stimulus for society to hook on to for either the promotion or destruction of someone or even something?

It’s very easy to identify the “unsocial aspect” of social networking websites and how popular it has become in the ordinary home and particularly to the younger generation of teenagers and young adults, as these youngsters try to fill their social need of acceptance by relating to people they perhaps have never even met. We can, of course, be quick to recognize how the unsocial aspect of relationships, when embodied in online impersonal behavior can cause the mind of the young person to drift into an unsocial or even an anti social direction and in spite of the hundreds and even thousands of connections that can be made in apparent new friendships, a proof of the substance in these friendships can come only through personal, physical sight and contact, without which, completion of the relationship is not experienced. However, what is experienced, even by the occasional social network user, is styles and forms of language culture and attitudes that have been allowed to “drip” into the minds and hearts of the social networker and to then persuade the networker to accept impressions of change which thereby distract the “social network” user from their complete function in their offline responsibilities; a rudeness in the attitude of the social network user then tends to become a substitute for domestic responsibility as a result of no clear focus coming from meaningless messages in incomprehensible language understood only by the connected users in the networks.

Offline, social networkers then begin to emulate in their lives, those online conversations, behaviors and connection technologies, which consequently thereby brings about division in the thinking and actions of family members. Family values then begin to erode and are even destroyed in the process.

Although the social network attracts all ages, an impressionable age for these networks to catch is that of the late teens and young adult. This age group is the immediate future of techno kids, who as technology advances to greater levels, become the advanced army of unsocial, disrespectful adults in years to come, being completely ignorant and devoid of family structures and family values; selfish to the core in their relationships with everyone and thing but the online social, but antisocial network.
