Hahaha I love the New Yorker cartoons so much! please post more soon!
Pretty effective material, much thanks for your article.
This is fantastic. Thank you for sharing!
The one thing that is consistent.. we will always sit around talking and drinking cocktails.
Awesome image of the week!x
Ha ha so true about how life is now a days.
love it!
hahahaa…love it!
that is so true
music & fashion post up!

That reminds me of something Jerry Seinfeld said once about email: how offensive it really is because not only do we not have to see your face, but we don’t want to hear your voice either!
Amazing. x hivenn
so true i do so agree…
ohh thats kind true! :/
Yes, now i ignore everyone :)

Sounds about right
Oh man, too funny… and sadly a little too true!
that is my life, I guess I should work on that! Ha!
THIS IS MY LIFE!!!!
Most recently I started telling people to @ message me if they needed a quick response because I gave up phone calls, emails and texting but now I can’t even keep up with that so I just quit it all. Corresponding is a full time job!
I think the solution is to send an old fashioned letter / invite / inquiry though the mail. I will for sure see that… until I don’t.
ha! Is it wrong to admit that I can ABSOLUTELY relate?!
This is great, and very true!
All this communication does get to be overkill after awhile! Between work, extracurricular activities and friends/family, my Blackberry/computer get a workout!
cath, you sound awesome!
Yessiree.
I think I’m the oldest thirtysomething in existence. My cell phone is the free one they gave me with the plan (my friend calls it the jitterbug after the one sold in AARP magazine!), it takes me 17 minutes to text, “hello”, and I still send actual mail. (I am the butt of all my friends’ jokes these days, but I am proud that I know how to connect with them when they need me!)
Ah yes, The New Yorker nails it…again.
hahaha!! that’s awesome!

p.s. i’ve got a some sur la table $ to give away!
HA! Wow – this is one of the truest things I’ve seen in a while. I totally relate.
my husband will love this one!
…And so then came Facebook and then i got busy with everyone’s life! :)
very true and very sad. my husband and i blocked texts on our phones and guess what? we suddenly had no friends or family. no returned phone calls or email replies… nothing!
what ever happened to common courtesy?
Rarely do I find a commercial cartoon that explains me…this does. ~Mary
ps some people think that is reaching a crisis point; I think it is just people overload reality.
Here is the Times article:

I hear you, we don’t even have a home phone line anymore.
I need to take a lesson from my Grandmother and write handwritten letters to my friends and family….how cool would it be to receive one of those in my letterbox!
I definitely had one of those weeks last week. Sometimes you just need some good old fashioned face time!
HA! sounds about right :)
What does this say about our society? This is really sad. I think there was a NY Times article about this too. What will the future be like??
Oh man. I kind of sorta really definitely am the same way. I gotta start good ole fashion calling again!
xo
oh my god I think this is my mirror!!!!!
sometimes it does happend to me!
love it! perfect. good to know I am not the only one. and I like how the two men in the drawing are essentially the same person but with different clothes/accessories.
So true! Thanks for making us smile :)

Haha, so very true (sadly?)!
Ha! I’ll never forget my babysitters ignoring me while talking on the phone at my house! Now the babysitters I hire to babysit my children probably just text the whole time while watching my little ones. Yikes! :))
Hahaha thanks for th tuesday mid work day smile. Twas much needed.
it’s so much easier to ignore someone through text, email. i always feel like i HAVE to call someone back. woops.
perfect.
hilarious!
It is like thank you notes for dinner parties: do I write, call, e-mail, text? I’ve taken so long, I think I’ll just forget it!
How funny! We really are becoming lazy indifferent persons.. This cartoon made me want to contact someone :) though I would add:e-mailing, texting, then blogging and then ignore.
I know ha ha I do that too! He he where is the world going? :-)
I love this. I’m guilty of this myself, ha! Thanks for sharing. xo.
ha! makes me appreciate when i have real phone calls:)
It’s so true! Voice-on-Voice, as I like to call it feels so intimate.
Becca
haha that’s so true.
HAHA! I’m going to send this to my bf who will text a full conversation than to just call me! Hilarious.
anonymous, that is hilarious :)
True true…as evidenced by the rising number of unanswered messages in ach of my electronic devices ;)
Love it! So true (at least for me:)
Petra
Haha…that is so funny!!
Just try to get someone on the phone, as my niece told me, “I don’t like to talk on the phone, people say things like um and uh.”
yes, so true. my phone broke last week and i haven’t even fixed it yet!
hahaha! Love it.
So true, so true…
XO
