It Remembers More Than You Do
Back in the day, I carried a little phone book around in my pocket/backpack to remember all my important phone numbers. After dialing the numbers a few times, naturally, I began to store them to memory.

Now, address books are like photo albums — a clunky chunk of unnecessary bullshit. Your smartphone remembers the numbers you dial, and if you’re proficient in your laziness, you can assign then to a “button” for speed-calling. Hell, you don’t even have to remember important dates if you’re not too handicapped to remember how to store them on your device’s calendar.
As a matter of fact, I don’t even think kids memorize their time tables anymore because smartphones come with calculators, too.
