Modern technology has undoubtedly improved our lives in many ways - from curing what used to be terminal illnesses to space explorations, we all must agree that life without technologies seems quite impossible now. Though the technologies make living more comfortable, they are also the culprit of many social issues, with smartphone addiction being the top one.

Thanks to cell phones, we are more connected than ever before, but disconnecting is also more painful. The following cartoons, as well as the 'Death Of Conversation' project by Babycakes Romero, illustrate some of the funny and not-so-funny side effects of our social media addiction.

Scroll down below and check the dark drawings for yourself. Though these strips might be disguised in the form of funny comics, the issues that they cover are raising concern to many of us and hopefully, you will not find yourself in these deep drawings.

    Famed is thy pic, Majesty. But hold, a lovely maid I see. Photoshop cannot hide her gentle grace. Alas, she has a fairer pic than thee.

    The art's really pretty. I'm so inspired right now that my fingers are tingling to write. Oor that could be the nerve damage.

    That's why in Asia, people burn paper phones (among other things) for their loved ones who have passed away.
