I am not an adult enough to own my own filing cabinet. If I had to haul a 5-foot-tall behemoth of metal drawers up three flights into my new apartment, I would not be particularly excited about that. All of my important files are kept in a Rolodex in my mind. I know exactly where my passport and birth certificate are based on vibes alone, and no fancy 20th-century drawer contraption can do anything for me that I can’t do for myself.

In a way, the internet is its sort of filing cabinet. We bookmark all of our favorite websites to make them super easy to access. We open «files» on our desktops for quick access. If you’re desperately searching for a file called «List of 30 hilarious memes to end my Monday spectacularly», we’ve got you so covered, it’s not even funny. Remember to close the drawer so it doesn’t slam.
