Signs That Your Smartphone Is Making You Dumb by taiocol: 10:01pm On Jun 07, 2015 |
A smartphone is a decidedly must-have thing in our life, it is like a status symbol that needs to be displayed vainly. While our phones keep getting smarter with technological advancements, we are however, losing our smartness because of our excessive dependence on it. Your communication skills have deadened Yes, that is 100% true. When was the last time you actually remember having a normal conversation with someone? This got you thinking right? We are not only hinged to our phone because we want to know the direction of a family friend's house but also we need it to ease awkwardness. You have forgotten the age-old art of communication. You have no clue as to what is happening around you This is a classic symptom of smartphone ailment. Your device incarcerates your attention, making you completely oblivious about things that are going around. Your conscious mind is so vanquished by your phone that you wittingly or unwittingly avoid other people's presence. You have become bad at spellings If there's one skill that has taken a major plummet since smartphones, it is our linguistic ability. It is plain gnawing to see those half-eaten words on your phone screen, it almost took me two days to figure this "symptoms tyms I dnt knw wt he mnz". By virtue of auto correct, things have become really easy, but in turn, have made you more dumb.t You can't sleep peacefully having it near you is most likely to disrupt your deeper phase of sleep that is concerned with body repairing. And what about the nagging itch to check your email or Facebook notification? Sleep deprivation redounds in a bad way on our health, and we are sure you can endure an 8-hour parting from your precious phone. #DumbSmartPhone 1 Share

Exactly. Dat auto correct z killing me! I remember when i used it, i got so used to the autocorrect that when am writing in real life, i expect d words am spelling to autofill themselves. It was too bad because with time i began to forget little spellings. People claim it makes life easy, but for me it stresses my life. I had to run back to my old phone without been told. |
