How has Society Passed You By? (1 Viewer)

Hmm. Great question and when I think about it there are quite a few areas in no particular order.
(1) Acceptance of FBombs and profanity as normal (and I guess the Nword in music?) as I heard that yesterday at an outdoor festival that was a big surprise to me.
(2) Cell phones conversations in public now a normal and accepted activity.
(3) Not offering your chair to an adult. Saw that at the DMV last week. I stood up and offered my chair to a man who may have been younger than me but was pretty feeble.
(4) Kids responding with "What?" instead of an "Excuse me or Pardon Me?" when they didn't hear you.
(5) Rap music - never got it. Still don't. They rhymes are creative - I just have a hard time hearing/understanding the lyrics.

Yea, I am old.

Where'd all these young people come from?

We used to be ashamed to admit watching 3 hours of "boob tube" on Saturday nights.

Now it's 3 out of every 4 minutes' waking time that most people are on media.

Scary and unfortunate.
