The Inevitable Tumblr: Babies with iPads

With only a few exceptions, I fucking love technology. I may be the Amish’s Anti-Christ. While some people yearn for yesterday, I get sad thinking about how I won’t live to see the cool shit of today become even more awesome in the future. I’m a child of Star Trek, not Blade Runner.

It should come as no surprise, then, that I think Babies with iPads is fucking awesome. I grew up across the street from Prospect Park, but thanks to my VCR and NES, I barely spent time there. If I had an iPad back then, I don’t think I would have ever seen the inside of the park*. And I’m totally ok with that.

So what if Babies with iPads signal the beginning of humanity’s cyborgization? Organic is overrated anyway. Yeah, I just went there. When I start breeding, my little bastards will fly around in jetpacks while watching TVs that have been implanted in their eyeballs.

Babies with iPads, people. This is the fucking future. Embrace it. Love it. Hell, take it one step further: send us photos of your Park Slope babies playing with iPads and we’ll post them here. I don’t have any little shitheads of my own yet but I’ll get the ball rolling with one of my cat:

*Actually, I probably would have made it out during the winter. Playing in the snow is on par with technology.
