Gifts of the 21st century

As man tries to outsmart those that came before him (holistically speaking) and invent new ways of doing old things he also concocts terminology to boast - Below are some such samples which to two bedouins in the desert (even today) or two romans sitting by the fire in 1 AD may have sounded meaningless and even borderline retarded.. 1. Work Life Balance - To the nomads the only balance in question would have been the one that dealt with keeping themselves erect after a night of drinking revelry - balance too would have been a pushover - after all if you fell down you could always wake up the following day and continue to pick berries..no one is going anywhere 2. 24 x 7 x 365 - Europeans and Asians and South Americans and Australians and Africans probably still have a hard time comprehending what this really means - even in the 21st century 3. 21st century - to people in the early ages it was not much of a subject of dinner time conversation since - for starters - there was no 21st century - no one really talked about centuries - I think they primarily focused on beating the crap out of their invading neighbor armies and then going on a drinking binge with their paramour much like Asterix and Obelix would have you believe 4. iPad, Facebook, Google et al - You could not talk or IM the Homo Sapien uncles in the east coat of Africa when the other monkeys in South America were just starting to get rid of their tails to tell them how excited they were about not cleaning an extra appendage, but it more than made up for by allowing everyone to hang loose and eat bananas by the beach without worrying about battery life and Wi Fi hotspots 5. Gay Lesbian Transgender AIDS et al - Huh - Me Monkey, you monkey, we make merry then we die 6. Organic, Farm Fresh, Sourced from the Amazon, Heart Healthy, All Natural gibberish - When you lived in the trees or right next to one you did not bother to talk about the trees let alone think about market placement or advertising. You kept your tree to yourself - your entire life depended on it!
