"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

This video is about a man who was taking a nap at what seemed like the most private and peaceful place, but he ended up getting disturbed by a drone.

This video represents a lot about life in 2015, IMO:

- Technology overkill

- Human overload

- No downtime anywhere

There is some humor in this video, but it also represents a sad reality about life today. The poor guy just wanted some peace, maybe he just went through a divorce. Maybe he had just worked a double shift. Or maybe it was a 30 minute lunch break. Who knows. I can tell you that any geek that interrups my nap with a drone is going to have the dead snapped off his pencil neck. Assuming he didn't have a gun to shoot the drone, he should have mooned it. :moon:

You think that's bad?

It is now legal for law enforcement in North Dakota to fly drones armed with everything from Tasers to tear gas thanks to a last-minute push by a pro-police lobbyist.
