Signs you have had
enough of the new millennium
From Sunil Sharma
1) You try to enter
your password on the microwave.
2) You now think of
three espressos as "getting wasted."
3) You haven't played
solitaire with a real deck of cards in years.
4) You have a list of
15 phone numbers to reach your family of three.
5) You e-mail your son
in his room to tell him that dinner is ready, and he e-mails you back,
"What's for dinner?"
6) Your daughter sells
Girl Scout Cookies via her Website.
7) You chat several
times a day with a stranger from South Africa, but you haven't spoken to
your next-door neighbour yet this year.
8) You didn't give your
wife a Valentine's card this year, but you posted one for your e-mail
buddies via a Web page.
9) Your daughter just bought CDs of all the worst records your college
roommate used to play.
10) Every commercial on
television has a Website address at the bottom of the screen.
11) You buy a computer
and a week later it is out of date. And now sells for half the price you
paid.
12) The concept of
using real money, instead of credit or debit, to make a purchase is
foreign to you.
13) Cleaning up the
dining area means getting the fast food bags out of the backseat of your
car.
14) Your reason for not
staying in touch with family is that they do not have e-mail addresses.
15) You consider
second-day air delivery painfully slow.
16) You refer to your
dining room table as "the flat filing cabinet."
17) Your idea of being
organised is multiple coloured post-it notes.
18) You find you really
need PowerPoint to explain what you do for a living.
19) You normally eat
out of vending machines and at the most expensive restaurant in town
within the same week.
20) You think a
"half-day" means leaving at 5 o'clock.
21) You hear most of
your jokes via e-mail instead of in person.
