I hate travelling.  I hate the Internet.  And I hate this computer.

This computer is ungainly.  It has an overactive mouse that just purchased a ticket I didn't want.

Every webpage---EVERY--is over-crowded, not elegantly arranged---with too many pointless possibilities, and too many distractions.

There's nothing like the elegance of an old-fashioned page of text----with broad margins and not single-spaced (as is still popular in the ever austere heart of Europe).

Worst of all, with the internet, you can click on something and not know exactly what it means---because the language used is just not transparently clear.

F*** the internet and F**** its designers----but mostly would that those who currently manage it were consigned to a new level in Dante's hell...............

Note:  Some readers may not realize it, but prior to the existence of the Internet, there were movies, books, periodicals, journals, and magazines.  True enough, to obtain one, you'd have to make a trip outside of your home.  I don't know that I've gained so much by ease of access.  Yes, sometimes I am saved a trip.  But, to be honest, I usually go outside, and when I do, it would not be so much trouble to get hold of a magazine or book or journal.

The time savings is not astronomical.

And, I think there's a mental and physical health price to be paid for sitting at home in front of a screen.....

It's somewhat like the fact that people still enjoy going to concerts, and not merely listening to music through their computers.............There are things which computers cannot give you even when they give you stuff to read or listen to---something social............
