I recently quit going when I realized I am driving out of my way to talk to others my age and nobody talks anymore. They just sit
and scroll through Facebook and Tik Tok videos. The last straw was when I had to wave my hand in front of someone's phone to
get their attention. I can look at my phone at home but it is plain rude to sit in a trance staring at a phone with friends. I see families
out for dinner and both parents and their kids are on their phones instead of having a conversation. This is exactly why we have that moron as
president America has a 10 second attention span.
