\nTexting.<\/strong> You learn to narrow your vocabulary to short words and abbreviations like LOL.
\n.
\nPowerpoint. <\/strong>You learn to think in bullet points instead of logically connected thoughts. Tufte, Powerpoint Is Evil. <\/em>
\n.
\nFacebook. <\/strong>You learn to talk about yourself all the time and show everyone pictures of the beach you went to for vacation.
\n.
\nInstagram.<\/strong> You learn to do without language altogether, reverting to the status of a wild beast. Eventually, perhaps, you attach to one spot and become a vegetable.
\n.
\nTwitter. <\/strong>You learn to cut out unnecessary words and speak concisely. <\/p>\n
