iPod-wearing Technobos!

How Many Technobos?

Within a certain group of technobos, the ones that seem to be especially nutrient deficient due to poor eating habits; there seems to be an affinity to have technology in our posession that is well beyond whatever we could need or have a want for. Case in Point : iPods, a $400 Music player, that yes, is very kewl... but what useful purpose does it serve?
1 ) You can't eat it... and god knows... those dumpsters down by JR Capones are starting to look better every day.
2 ) You can't sell it ( We don't actually own them, so if they get lost or stolen, we are up shit creek )
3 ) It is essentially a toy. Has some shiny buttons and lights... but it doesn't do anything except provide entertainment.

So that's it folks. You can become a vagrant, go dumpster diving, get paid jack to do tech support... and still walk around with a $400 toy on your hip. We should all be this lucky.

You can toss it at the other hobos as they rummage through the dumpsters, in an effort to stun them long enough so YOU can make off with the GOOD eatin's......
