The room do not rent if you have crooked legs!

O tempora o mores!
Cicero

 I wonder what Cicero would say if he lived today. Modern crazy rhythm of life in the metropolis, smartphones with built-in cameras, high-speed Internet, which is even in the subway, all this develops in us "multitasking". some years ago it was possible to go by tram and read the book. The most advanced could simultaneously drive, smoke and talk on a mobile phone. Those who did it on a car with a manual transmission, had the level of "God". Today, you can easily go on a high-speed train, talk on the phone with a subscriber from the other end of the world, while playing "candy", earning cryptocurrency for the passed levels, and strengthen the abdominal muscles with an electric stimulator. And it is no longer surprising. It's not even an advanced level.
 All this thanks to the Internet. We can being out of the house and buy pizza, clothes, Cadillac, travel to Australia. You can remotely take an exam from home to UNIVERSITY, negotiate on the Board of Directors, learn the language, visit the Louvre... By the way, the new service of one of the largest Internet companies in Russia allows you to go to the doctor via video communication with per minute billing. Yes, Yes! This is not fiction, it is already our present. Very soon it will be possible to show with the help of the built-in smartphone camera your throat otolaryngologist, show your pimple cosmetologist and something else to show the gynecologist. Now I know why the monopod was invented. It's not for selfies.
 And then there are the social network. This is a unique invention. This is not only an opportunity to look at the pictures of grown-up Masha from a parallel class, but also a chance to communicate in the interests, to pour out the soul and get support or add a negative, to create an event and send out engagements, to raise money for charity or just get away from reality, covering the pimpled full face with a beautiful avatar. And why my article is called "crooked legs"? Keep calm, friends. I have a need to find rental housing for my large family for a short period of time. "Social network will help me" - I thought and went to the page of a well-known group" rent/rent without agents " in the most popular social network. That's where the fun begins. Absolutely! All of the above was only a prelude.


source of the photo

 I have registered in a community with many thousands of users and thousands of publications. This Inspires credibility and trust. I'm starting to look. Those wishing to rent turned out to be more than offers. Strange thing. Each author of the announcement of the intention to rent a house necessarily complements the announcement of his photo. I'm reading the first one. In the photo, a young pretty girl in full height and in a half-ass to show the beauty of the body. Young student wants a room no more than 50 dollars. Normal desire. I look below, there already 32 comments.
The first comment:

  • " i want more photos?"
    second one:
  • "i would like to share a room with you? I'll pay for both of us."
    Further even more interesting. A dude named Armen Petrossian offers her to communicate in PM. On the comment of another girl that this is not a chat for Dating, he says, "you look beautiful too, i'm ready to chat"!
    For 32 comments only one sentence is essentially ads, from the agent, which should not be in this group.
    Hmm, read on.. All ads with photos in full growth. I don't know, today in Moscow do not rent the apartment to girls bad appearance? Or if you have crooked legs the room will be more expensive? And guys, why when you want to rent a room you are posting the picture from the gym? In the hope that someone will give you a discount in proportion to the size of your biceps?
    There was a photo of two girls with clothes and makeup, which can accurately determine their profession. Yeah, I guess they haven't rented an apartment yet, but now they have a lot of clients because of tones comments. I do not understand who rents an apartment, and who takes himself as the rent. Apparently, it is also a reflection of our time. It's very easy with a single publication to rent an apartment and find work, and who knows, maybe find love.

O tempora o mores!
On the other hand, what am I surprised about? We went to the library not only to read books? And on a skating rink or disco not only to skate and to dance. And today young people, going out in a network, to solve all questions at once. The world to see and be seen. And there's nothing wrong with that. I got acquainted with my wife in internet too. Now this is normal, but in the beginning of the two thousandth, often, this fact was surprising for other people.
It's really interesting what will happen in 5-10 years? Will we print everything at home, on portable 3D-printers? Will we talk to foreigners online without knowing their language? Will we be having sex with virtual reality helmets and sensors? To treat our teeth through video-conferencing? The future is fascinating and attractive for its mystery. But I still have the most important question? So still, what discount can I expect when I rent an apartment if I send a picture of Charlize Theron instead of mine?
