With the world of internet slowly taking over, well, everything you have to stop and wonder how far it will go.
I for one am glad of internet banking. This removes a portion of the idiots on the road driving to the bank while talking on their cell phones, and various other tasks that really should be done while driving. Steering and paying attention is merely optional these days.
I would think that removing a portion of these drivers would make the streets safer for me while I myself am drving to the bank. However, many of these drivers are doing their personal banking on their cell phones while driving to their other destinations.
I may as well just rip out my seat beat and throw it in the trash.
How far will this take us? Pretty soon we'll be able to do everything via the web: order gorceries, order a pizza, get a job...
What? You say we can already do that? Eeek! The need for practical buildings will be abolished! No one need ever leave their house ever again! Think of how many people work from home via the interent and order from Wal-mart.com when the Super Wal-Mart is only 2 blocks away!
I think it's a spendid idea! I'd never have to go outside, I'd never have need for human contact. Even if I were single, I could hook up with one of those dating sites, meet the person via video conference and get married they same way (it has been done before).
I wouldn't even have to go outside to do yard work because no one in the world would see it due to their being super-glued to their own computers!
Think of the money I could save on gas, car insurance, and clothing! I'd never have to worry if my underwear were clean because I'd never have to worry that i might get into a car accident that day! The Wolrd Living by Internet would elimtate 100% of car accidents! (Though drug use would probably go up 700,000%. But your dealer would probably just mail it to you after you clicked on his website.)
And instaed of visting my family, I could chat via video conference. When they started to drive me nuts (as they tend to do) I could simply shut it off, then send a (hug) via email.
Now, that's a good idea.
I also think it might help elliminate wars. Instead of shooting guns and live missles at each other, we could just recruit some guys to play war games on Xbox Online. Whatever country has the most characters alive at the end of the game wins the war. See, today we have some countries sadly, forcibly recruiting 10 year olds with semi-automatics to fight wars, and 15 year olds blowing themselves up.
In the Internet World, that would be a country to recon with!
It's practically flawless.
