disconnectivity

The ultimate lure of electronic toys, is to simply not care about them anymore! I got this new word from the Monday, Jan 25, 2010 "Cathy" newspaper comic strip, where her husband says "Financial tools...organizational tools...networking tools...writing tools...scheduling tools.." and "With my new phone, the clutter of our lives is finally getting under control!" and Cathy says,"You've had your new phone for a week. How is the clutter more under control?", and he says" I don't care about it anymore." and Cathy thinks in a thought baloon, "Ah...the ultimate lure: disconnectivity."

He was so electronically and technically advanced, that he tired of it all, and embraced disconnectivity.

Cultural disconnection

When people assume their way of doing things goes-without-saying, like that Christmas is necessarily in December (or in January) or that everyone celebrates Christmas, and which assumption, in-turn, leads to social isolation.

-- So glad you could finally come to our party this year.

-- Yeah, it took some getting-used-to...first Christmas, and then...Christmas-in-January.

-- What did you think we were celebrating on January 6?

-- I read that that's when Jesus traditionally got circumcised.

-- So that's what you thought today was about? I think you may be experiencing cultural disconnection.

-- Just as long as that's the only disconnection I end-up experiencing.

relentless discontention

A never ending desire for success.

Although he had accomplished more than anyone in his profession, everyday he was thriving to achieve more, earn more, conquer more. He was never satisfied with ‘just good enough’. He had relentless discontention.

Discontext

Discontexted - when autofill inserts a word into a text which creates dis-content and out-of-context communications between the texter and textee.

The teen blamed a discontext for announcing her arrival at motherhood when really her arrival was in her mother's neighborhood.
