  • Abstract
    As the terms iPod oblivion and laptop zombies from my December column suggest, we´re living in the age of the technological insult. Social networks, smartphones, and other technologies have a way of promoting behavior that is off-the-wall, cringe-inducing, or plain old stupid. And the technologies themselves make it easier than ever to respond with a good zinger.
