A person who is constantly buying new technology (cell phones, mp3 players, etc) for the purpose of showing them off. A person that just "bleeds" technology. comes from technophile and hemopheliac.
"Hey!! Check out my new wireless PDA/Cellphone/mp3 player/coffe maker/garage door opener!"
"Is that really necessary?"
"Well...no... But I HAD to show you."
"You're such a technopheliac."
A consumer often inundated with technology, as a means of distracting from the drawbacks and dangers of capitalist culture. Technophilles often find themselves staring at the shiniest new iPhone, or the newest news in science. This keeps the consumer complacent with worldwide ecological destruction, and class oppression.
The technophille in my reading club keeps his nose in front of the TV, to keep his emotions controlled by mass culture.
Simon Peabody has an unhealthyrelationship with his laptop and has tried, on several occasions, to insert his "member" into its hard-drive. Mr. Peabody unfortunately suffers from technophelia.
