Have you ever been startled by that hell of a shriek abruptly in the middle of a happening get-together that turned out to be a ringtone? Such incidents are fast becoming a norm throughout the world. Young users like to flaunt the novel and sometimes crazy ringtones in their mobiles, often to the consternation of the purists of propriety and noble conduct.

I feel this points to the trend the postmodern society is exhibiting towards collective show-off, a desperate bid to live in the present without giving the hell of an attention to what the future has in store.

I believe this is a direct evidence of the collective morality of a society veered into the domains of uncertainty and indeterminateness. What say?
