I've got an Oyster-card!
Not really reason for jubilation, I hear you say, but for a lazy person, who loves gadgets, the Oyster-card is a blessing. Not only can you now use public transportation without having to lift more than a finger, but it is fun at the same time - and it makes you look cool.
Compare, if you will, the old days of pocket-fumbling, finger-twisting, hand-chafing misery, more often than not resulting in weird ticket-paper-cuts, to the slick technology of today. Grab the plastic pocket, swish it swiftly across the electronic thingy and whoops - you're free to go. No friction, no bending, no sweaty palms.
Public transport, here I come!
