So do I.

People are losing the ability to talk to each other.

How many times in a pub do you see a group of friends not talking to each other but heads down in their smartphones.

It's quite sad really.

Correct W71.

Shiny there really is NO need and your post, welcome though it is apart from the insult, is to say the least a bit ironic.

i was in a pub last night, sat in the window, watching the rain and sipping a blood orange IPA at 6.4% whilst reading a book, over to the right of me was a group of early 20 somethings, complaining to each other that the stout 2 of them had bought was nothing like guinness (not that they liked guinness either), other activities included talking about them all getting pubes, and then giving the middle finger through the window to one of their party who went outside, braved the rain to Vape.

Can't say i saw much phone usage though.

I apologise for the insult.

I think we all have different views and experiences and I originally thought it worth exploring that human behaviour is evolutionary and that we can understand things better if we learn from the past.

Terms such as 'bookish' and 'bookworm' came into use due to negativities associated with compulsive behaviours attached to reading, and I thought it was worth exploring that whilst the media is different, the behaviour might be in someway similar.

But now I think it's time to move on to the positive events and focussing on the CC Final.

Oh to be young again.
