misuse of technology

Yesterday morning on my way to a bike ride I stopped at an ATM in case I needed cash along the way. And I wanted to know what time it was to see how hard I needed to push to get to the ride on time, but my phone was buried in a bag. So I asked the ATM for a receipt (I usually don't get one) because I knew it'd have a timestamp printed on it.

Like using a screwdriver to open a can of paint?

Blinks....

What else would one use to open a can of paint?

And what's the point of having a phone, if not to tell time? :)

There are these cool new things called "watches"...
