Sitting around an airport bar. No one is interacting with each other.


People used to just read books or magazines instead. People act like we used to just chat with random strangers in public.

People are still buried in phones at these places.

Thank you, I was trying to find this meme...

Just because we don't speak to the people around us doesn't mean we're being anti-social or not communicating, just communicating with people who aren't in the room

Spoken like a true Boomer. Are you proud of how you've helped destroy this country?

Go watch Wall-E. Film was way ahead of its time. We are already there in many ways.

I think the noise cancellation headphones people walk around with are a bit antisocial. I don't mind if someone is on their phone.

Are you saying having access to most of the information on the planet is the start of some ending? Are you a Baptist?

I didn't ham it up with fellow strangers then, nor now.

Yeah, no. I'm talking to 10 different people, making plans for multiple nights this week, conducting business, paying bills, and reading the news.



People just don’t get it. I do the same as my smartphone is the beginning of allowing ,me to conduct business at the beach, in the barn, on the couch or most any place except behind a desk.
