The definition of technology according to dictionary.com is "a scientific or industrial process, invention, method..." These inventions, methods and processes are made to make life easier. Technology is a great benefit of living in this day and age. My pet peeve is when that technology, created to make my life easier, makes my life harder by not working.
I buy a computer to have internet access, I buy a video game console to play games, I buy a DVD player to reproduce sound, color and picture. When the technology around doesn't work the way it's supposed to, I get so angry.
Dear University Villa Air Conditioning,
I'm so glad I have you. There's really nothing quite as nice as waking up to a freezing cold house and eating cereal with blue fingers. There's nothing like studying for 3 hours in your own living room and wearing a jacket and wooly hat. There's nothing like seeing that you, Mr U.V. Air Conditioning are showing me that you SHOULD be at 70 degrees, when you're really at 63 degrees. There's nothing better than turning on the heat just to watch the number of degrees go down.
Mr U.V. Air Conditioning, I am a human and you are a machine. You are created to make my life easier. Please don't defeat your own purpose, making you useless. Technology that doesn't make my life easier is a waste....don't make me write you again...
Seriously........
