I’m bored of it.

+

The pervasive, all encompassing nature of it.

+

The inevitable, dehumanising consequence of it.

+

That there’s a ‘there’ there to it.

+

Rubbish in and rubbish out of it.

+

Nobody asked for it, and nobody wants it.

+

The best minds of my generation thinking about how to make people use it.

+

That you should just accept it.

+

A thousand no’s, but ‘yes’ when shareholders start clamouring for it.

+

Policy-makers pandering to it.

+

A decommissioned nuclear power station required to power it.

+

Not to mention millions of gallons of water required to cool it.

+

Every article glorifying it.

+

Every article vilifying it.

+

Every pub conversation winding up talking about it.

+

People incessantly telling you how they use it.

+

I feel dirty using it.

+

You know what I’m talking about, even though I’ve not mentioned it.

+

And that’s why I’m bored of it.
