People spend more time texting than talking.
People rely too much on tech because when a server goes down, you can not bank or buy food at times.
In an emergency, and you can crawl to your phone for help, are you going for the push button on the desk you can easily press 911, or your touch phone you have to enter a password, not mistap to do it again, wait for the phone program to loan and hope it does not crash, and pray you got a signal and you paid some money into it (I do prepaid, can not afford unlimited).
Kids play more video games than sports. Growing up, i play video games all the time (days of Atari and Nintendo) but I was out doing basketball, paintball, and night time vigilante stuff. I was active.
> Fun fact... I was a 1990 Nintendo World Championship semifinalist.
> Fun fact 2... I never played World of Warcraft.
Movies and cartoons were more, shall I say it? If I do, it might offend some people....
ORIGINAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MTV was that. Music videos.
Humans spend more time social networking online, than face to face networking, or phone calls. Me, I got no friends on or offline. I am too much of an introverted antisocialist to even do social networking (besides, I do not need an abusive person to be stalking me right now).
> Fun fact... I once tried to get a group of introverts together for a club, but no one came.
The 1980s.... the tubular times.
When music was less about sex and love and more.... wait, never mind. Still was..
A time when wondering if an EMP in your area would shut down your life or not.
A time when you an walk into a Mom/Pop place and feel like family, or into Toys R Us with your child and torture them on what you can not afford. Now, you order things without actually touching it first, and you eat at big name restaurants that overcharge.
And, there were a lot more trees and less people on this planet. I MISS THAT!!
I miss the 1980s, and the 1800s.... good times.... good times.
