Cell phones. I have hated telephones of all varieties my whole life, and consider them to be a necessary evil. And cell phones have been the instrument that allows most humans to exhibit the most abhorrent social behavior, yet claim the rest of us are being "rude" when we point out how rude these cell phone users are being. I clearly have no idea what the next incarnation of this hellish device will be, but I sincerely hope that we as a society do a better job of figuring out how to balance the use of such a device against face-to-face interaction with the people around us in those moments.
Still holding out. Never owned any kind of a mobile device, and never intend to. They said "how can you live without it" twenty years ago, fifteen years ago, ten years ago, and five years ago, and I'm still living without it just fine.
