The man who killed the world

We had to admit that elephant's graveyards were nothing but a myth. Although it seems that computer's graveyards do exist, in Africa.


So this is likely where your computer will end up his life peacefully in a moving opensky funeral pyre.

Where your beloved belongings will end up, it is more tricky to say... in some ordinary garbage dump ?
Or if they're lucky, perhaps they'll reach one of the dreamy and picturesque ocean garbage patch :


And where you'll end up, well i can't say precisely either, but there are chances it will be in the bellies of some cute jiggling little maggots (i'll spare you the picture) and i've the slightest doubt that once there, it will be kind of difficult to catch up with the last season of your favorite TV show or get your last fashionable high-tech accessory...

If it is any comfort to you, remember that the pile of trash you've patiently built up all along your incomplete and unfullfilled life will leave a mark and will be remembered.
