Technology acts as an intermediary interconnecting humans occupying different realms of pshyical existence. I just spoke to a relative in somalia; he was tending to camels. Globalisation has changed the way people communicate but has it changed their lives in any meaningful way? My relative is still living the hardlife he was born into 60 years ago. In fact, little has changed in terms of living standards since the time of his grandfather. Some become users and consumers of technology whilst others seek to monopolise production and invention of these resources. The grandchildren of my relative will all know how to use a mobile but they will still most likely be illiterate. I am baasto a champion of the lumpen proletariat unit..

It has the potential to impact their lives in a meaningful way, I mean take your geel jire relative as an example he can go on the internet, communicate and network with buyers and resllers, sell his awr and make big profits. I mean you spoke to him and are aware of his current situation thanks to technology, baritole haduu dhib qabsadow he can call you and say ninyahow sidaan baa ihaysataa wire me some money. The ability to get that money to him in time of need has been made feasible by technology.

Miss I love gunadian and amerigun guys

I will respond to u later.

LMAO ...I'll be waiting

I forgot what I was gonna say.

meh.

This was pitiful man! Waan ka damqaday this blatant ineptitude

First, this thing you’ve put forth, (including the title) is murky. Unsolicited advice: simplify!

Here you had a good idea that got lost in this wordy soup, the clear aim of which was to entice the intelligent minded girls here…let’s be frank, it’s not like you’re looking for a guy to opine on today’s technology and its impact on the lives of Somali badows. Still, often enough, the natural brusqueness of our kind does not allow us to grasp the subtleties of this dance. Let me illustrate what I mean. A very long time ago, in my youthful days, I (along with a few friends) came across a gaadhi dameer momentarily left unattended by its owner. We figured it’d be fun to take it for a spin. We climbed up on the cart and pressed the beast forward but it simply wouldn’t move. We doubled our effort by pulling on the reins, hitting it on the rump, poking it with a stick, all to no avail. It stubbornly stood where it was…until the owner heard the commotion and chased us away. If we had taken a different (i.e. softer) approach, I doubt that we would have seen a better outcome but we were dealing with a donkey and those things are well known for being obstinate…. point being, there's a method to every madness (do you doubt that love/lust is one?), even the driving of donkeys is a science. Yaanaan hadalka kugu dheereyn ee you must know your intended audience…This here is brute force…be gentle, cajole, flatter…definitely flatter, tickle them pink with your words, ha dagdagin…women are still women (they’re girls really), predisposed to whimsicality so feed into that. You must project strength in a non-aggressive way, much of a balancing act as it is…show street smarts, not overbearing pedantry...They’re looking for cleverness and levity not duuf iyo doqonimo (not saying that this is what you did here but it was trending that way)…And finally, when a chance does comes your way as it just did, you should seize it firmly. You stumbled upon “LMAO ...I'll be waiting” and you come back with “I forgot what I was gonna say”? Eesh min hadaa?

P.S. Don’t think inaan kugu diganayo bro, there was a time aan losing streak xun ku jiray because, see above, until Ilaahay ii naxariistey oo miskiin yaroo ismo’og ah ila kulmiyey

bro, I was trolling. I like to confuse people with random thoughts intertwinned with some pseudo intellectual drivel. I want to see what responses I get. Weird,I know. The sister took it seriously, which was never intended purpose..my comment was designed to steer her away from wasting her time. And, no I was trying to chat anyone up with this.my game is far better than that.

@ lumpen proletariat.

bro, I was trolling

and so was I saaxib...don't mind me
