Padded Lamposts in London?

by

According to a recent report, human beings are becoming so incredibly stupid that they require cushioned lamppost bases so that when they run into them they don’t mess up their idiotic faces. Apparently, a study in the UK found that one in ten people actually managed to hurt themselves by walking into a post while peering down at their mobile phone screen. The mishaps — called “walking and texting” injuries — have spurred the charity Living Streets to launch the padded-post-pilot scheme in Brick Lane, London. It seems that if all goes well, there are plans to roll out the idiot-proof system in Birmingham, Manchester, and Stupidton.

[As Engadget Says, anyways...]

Here it is folks, the reason why we should not texting on our phones when we are doing other things, such as walking. It doesn’t even matter what we are doing, while we are texting, we should not be doing anything else proactive. Yes, you can text while you are sitting and waiting for a doctors appointment, or even when you are standing in line, but when you are driving your car, or walking down the street, texting is the last you want to be doing.

Support says that people are getting stupid as ever, yet we are designing the most technological things ever. Well, this just means that our technology is simply highlighting the ever-so-close nature of ourselves which is ERROR. But this is okay.I wonder why this is only happening in London, and not the US. I would like to see a padded lamp post here in the US, but I doubt that is going to happen because we Americans are much smarter than those Europeans.

Laugh out Loud! I was just kidding, there is not actually a reason why the Europeans are having trouble with this multi-tasking, but I do know that they must not multi-task as much as we do here in the US. THE US is basically the head Quarters for multi-tasking. If you are driving, you have to be doing something else while you are driving. Even Dimitri Martin, you should see his multi-tasking abilities. Well, thats it for now, hope you enjoyed the ever-so-interesting post here at Wireless Tech Chat, the place for all your needs. :P Almost…
