How is using the word technology to describe the GPS network and smart phones absurd? You are the only one here talking about vegetables.

Modernity is not Facebook. Facebook is pop culture, and we're already aware of the anti-pop-culture movement: they're called hipsters.

Hipsters are SO into Facebook. And even _more_ into Instagram. They define pop culture by positioning themselves against a "phantom" pop culture that is even more pop.
