Overheard #1

Girl 1:  Have you seen the ------- commercial?
Girl 2:  No, you know I don't watch TV.
Girl 1:  It's not on television it's on YouTube...you watch YouTube don't you?
Girl 2: (Shrugs in disappointed affirmation)

Ten years ago it was slightly counter-cultural to claim one did not watch TV, almost radical.  Ten years from now the subversives will abstain from any media platform that flows advertisements into the stream of computer-generated moving images.  People will be perplexed into the nature of these post-luddite tendencies and the corporations will post more ads on the sides of buildings, roads, schools, and churches.  #freetheinternet
