Anyone else hate the 21st century?

Or is it just me? I don't want to start listing all the things I don't like about how the world is now, because that would be one hell of a depressingly long list, but one of the things I'm really bothered by is how easily so many people have effectively become enslaved by the very technology that was supposed to make our lives better.

@PepsiColaP Actually, no, you wouldn't, because medicine was already quite advanced. We're not talking about the Middle Ages here.

@PepsiColaP The last time I picked up a book (a real paper one, not an electronic "book") was this morning.

@PepsiColaP It's called 'Zen Flesh, Zen Bones', by Paul Reps. Before that I was reading the Book of Genesis.
