I gotta call fake.
In the "real" world, people arent that honest and open. When they are, they dont listen as the other people are. That is a video of how the world USED to be, when they knew how to interact with others. Not this anti social society of today.
Thats why Facebook is so huge. Its a place where people can be honest and open, but they can still place the focus where they want it. On "me" themselves. (Not saying all facebook is about that but in general it is "Look at me!" or "Hey I am on your page to tell you to come look at mine"
"Social media".

"I was a little bit nervous, uh... because normally you don't hang out with strangers in ball pits" =)
Thank you Paul, perfect timing. Just what I needed to see.
And yes, I wish there were ball pits where it was acceptable for adults to just go chill. Why do the kids get all the fun?! I want a big person ball pit where the balls are bigger, the pit is that much deeper. Aaaand I'm off on a tangent.
Anywhooo, great vid!

When my area lost power years ago due to a hurricane, just about everyone went back into the dark ages. No power, no AC, no video games, internet.... nothing. People shared food (mostly due to the fact that it would go bad and melt without a fridge, but still, it brought people together)
People were outside, talking to their neighbors, the busy rush of things faded away. Sadly, the only way I have seen to reverse it is a complete collapse of the conveniences everyone holds so closely to them. In a society built on the back of rush, rush, rush. Its not the people that are the problem, but the structure.
It is a nation (and a majority of the world) that embraced a society of "getting more done" and less focus on "the people" We have gone from building relationships with human beings, to building relationships with our technology and that is the problem, IMO. Technology is great, dont get me wrong, but NOT when it RULES over a society.
Yes, the second the power came back on, it went right back to the way it was before.

I enjoy how you can tell who the optimists and the pessimists are by posting something like this.
